Manny Pacquiao is 1-1-2 in his biggest fights. Hardly the makings of a "legend".

9 times out of 10, Pacquaiao will be beaten by a guy with superior boxing ability (JMM,Morales). He is exposed as one dimensional because He uses the same basic jab-jab-left and the same head movement every time.

I'm expecting to see a big win from Morales once he studies the tape, and circles to his right to nullify the straight left.

Not even close. Gabriel "Flash" Elorde, Luisito Espinosa, Francisco "Pancho Villa" Guilledo, etc. Pac is just the most popular right now.

pac is not yet the best filipino fighter ever, well not yet. but if he beats a couple of somebody, then he's arguably the best

For the record, my p4p...

1. Floyd Mayweather (anything else, and you're a dumbass)
2. Winky Wright
3. Jermain Taylor (beat the then #1 guy in the sport, undefeated)
4. Ricky Hatton (beat the then #4 guy in the sport, undefeated)
5. Bernard Hopkins
6. James Toney
7. Zab Judah
8. Diego Corrales (not taking him out until he loses legitimately)
9. Erik Morales
10. Marco Antonio Barrera

"8. Diego Corrales (not taking him out until he loses legitimately)"

Pac is not yet a legend but he has the makings of one.How many fighters do you see jump 6 divisions and still excel at the highest level?PAC had his first fight weighing 106 lbs!And now he is trading punches with legends(Barrera, Morales)who began careers at least at 122 pounds.

And yes,we know, Pac will never be a Mayweather.He can be outboxed by any decent counterpuncher like JMM did.And yes, he is 1 dimensional, he is reckless and relies on his left too much...But guess what?We all know that!Pac is not the most talented fighter, in fact he has a lot of glaring flaws..But why do you think he only has 3 losses?Barrera was pummeled to submission, JMM kissed the canvass 3 times, Morales' knees quivered, and he is a 3 division(counting the ring belt)champ!

People can say whatever they want, but no one can question Manny's heart.With all his limitations, he has excelled at the highest level, he fears no one, he fights not for money but for pride, yet he is very humble and he loves his country with unbridled passion!

If thats not legend material for you, i dont know what is....

[IwatchBoxing]

106 to 122 pounds, wow. Thats six divsions, or six days of eating?
