Question

Do you think manny pacquiao is the best featherweight boxer?? he did beat all the strong boxers..?

Answer 1

I agreed with lightsout4you.... he has done everything in the superfeatherweight division... although i still see some contenders in there like valero and john, just like he said... but there is also joan guzman... it would be cool to see him beat them too, but the biggest fight is wat pacquiao is aiming for.... which is against hatton.. that is the fight i would pay $100 dollar to see on tv.....

Answer 2

At the moment yes, but boxing is a very hard game every tough fight takes its toll no doubt some one fresh will take his title

Answer 3

people who says pacquiao is overrated knows none about boxing. pacquiao's power, aggressiveness, heart, patriotism, ppv ratings sensational wins and his contribution to the business  

proves everything. learn something about the sport before saying anything bad

Answer 4

Paquiao is a great champion,he may not have the best skills but his punch is the x-factor .to be honest,i think he lost his last fight with marquez but that could have gone either way and all the great champions have a contraversial decision now and then, so personaly i think that the two best featherwieghts are him and marquez .they should go at it one more time to really prove who's the best .as for best of all time NO, sal sanchez and arguello in that order are the two best ever in my opinion.

Answer 5

I think so. Nobody believed that he will beat Barrera that night but he did. Its only when those people lost that detractors claimed that they are old and tired horses.

But as for the higher weight categories, I have my reservations..

Answer 6

Yes, considering his position, Pacquiao did take on the very best..

people do take his accomplishments for granted because he did beat 3 of the legendary Mexican boxers in Barrera, Morales, and Marquez..

While some people argue that he beat these fighters past their prime, that is just a cop out.. in the end, Pacquiao fought the best considering his circumstances and should be labeled as one of the, if not, the best featherweight boxer of our time.

Answer 7

no I do not. I believe that he hit the super featherweight division when it was all but dead. The only decent fighters still around, the ones he beat were all clearly past their primes. Also to be the best, you have to be willing to fight the best. He refuses to fight edwin valero ranked number 4 in the whole division because there is no money in it. To be the best you should fight the best regardless of a paycheck. If you look it up he also lost in his career to nobody's with losing records. Even a past his prime morales was able to beat him on points. Pacquiao is overrated. He is a notable boxer, but until he fights all the competition in its prime that his division has to offer him, he will never be the best. Salvador Sanchez was and always will be the greatest featherweight.

Answer 8

yeah hes the best, he beat the 3 best twice each ( Barrera, Morales, Marquez). He'll prolly beat David Diaz too to claim the light weight title. I would like to see him stay at 130lbs and fight Valero or maybe even Chris John. But boxing is a business and you gotta go where the money is...

Pacquiao vs Valero or Chris John would still be great fights....
