Why do people talk about Pacquiao like he's a legend?

[DiegoFuego]

I love Manny Pacquiao and cheer him over Barrera, Morales, Marquez, all of 'em, but how come some of you act like he's a HUGE name and top 10 pound for pound fighter? He's only beat Barrera...

Manny is definitely not a legend in any sense of the word and not in my top 10 p4p until he wins another big fight without losing/drawing 2 inbetween. Hope he beats Morales!

[DiegoFuego]

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

hmm

1) Your p4p list is ridiculous.

2) When you batter Marco Antonio Barrera for 11 rounds, and stop him, you are going to be talked about. When you knock down Juan Manuel Marquez 3 times in one round, you're going to be talked about. When you fight Erik Morales' fight and still whoop some ass in a close fight that's fight of the year, you're going to be talked about.

Exactly .

He's been talked about a lot but not in a way like he's a legend. He's only 26 and he's got a long way to go if he wants to be a Hall of Famer like MAB or EM, but it's possible.

y not? he's tha greatest PINOY fighter of all time... exciting

[washizuka]

i love pacman becoz hes a clean fighter and he really kicks ass... yet he stays so humble..... our champ for life!!!

[Manny_P]

I like his style. He jest throws so many many hard punches and don't give a ****. I haven't seen anybody that do that. If you watch mo of his early fights you'd be blown at how fast his punches are and how many times he punches in 1 round. He's probably reached 200+ punches a round one time, but I aint 100% sho.

the weight didnt matter he was caught with a clean punch

[jack_the_rippuh]

200 punches in one round?
Yeah right.

Diego, you still have Morales over Barrera after Morales got embarrassed in his last fight?
