8 DIVISION CHAMPION or 4 DECADE CHAMPION? Which one is more difficult to achieved?

[Curtis Harper]

Wait, so you hate Tyson too?

These are 2 of the icons that draw the casuals' eyes to the sport

Like their aggressiveness, hate their rep.
They love Pac's smiley humble ways
Mike was the exact opposite and they loved it

Their fans every lil thing they do.


''8 this'', ''40 that''

If only there was a list of the Worst Champs In Boxing History....Pac's and Mike's accomplishments wouldn't be so envious.

Floyd is only one step away from achieving the latter. All he has to do is to rematch Pac and beat him. Then he becomes the 2nd to achieve 4 decade champion.

Where in if Floyd wants to achieve 8 division champ, he has to rematch Canelo to get that 160 lb strap, rematch Canelo again to get that 168 lb strap then rematch Canelo again to get that 175 lb strap.

Which do you do think is harder to achieve if you get the picture that I’m painting?

I agree. Flpyd has a chance to become a 4 decade champion but the 8 division champion is just a dream for flpyd to achieve.

I think 8-division champion is more difficult... Even with boxing political powers with them (impose catchweights, beat The Ring or lineal champions, etc.), DLH, TBE (not The Best Ever) and Canelo can't even reach 7...

4-decade champion seems to be easier... If 2019 new champions who are still champions today can win another in 2039 and carry it over to 2040, he can be a 4-decade champion (2010s, 2020s, 2030s, 2040s)...

I think what's more difficult than those 2 would be the 5-division lineal champion... If GrandPac miraculously gets the FotD for 2010s (impossible but just using as an example), it's another more difficult to achieve than the 2 options...

It's crazy to think that only one man achieved all of these if its different boxer then that wouldn't be so amazing but only one???... UNBELIEVABLE!!!!!

True pacquiao is an exceptional fighter.

Major props to anyone who could beat him.

I agree.. That's why torrecampo is one of the legends...

[pasawayako]

Lmao, what 8 divisions did Pacquiao win titles in?

112, 122, 130, 135, 147, and 154 is 6 divisions. 7 tops since won the IBO at 140 but nobody counts IBO titles so it’s 6.

Being a champ in 4 different decades is harder.

Pac is a lineal champion at 126 and 140.. A total of 8 division champion..

Diaz, Hatton, Those 2 tiny guys, Margarito......Doesn't get much funnier than that !!!!!

Its simple, first youve got to have a fighter thats truly elite.

Then youve got to get him into the position to get the fights.

Then pick your mark, use every advantage you can get on the back of popularity where nobody cares, CWS, fighters coming of big losses, fighters coming of injuries and long lay offs, etc etc theres a lot when you know this sport on a deeper level.

You see Manny has 7 losses , that proves that the match making allowed him to amass the titles, now if Manny went through his resume with no losses then thats remarkable because it shows they couldnt beat him.

If youre beatable and 7 losses says Manny is indeed beatable, then match making becomes the driver . Its straight up logic !

Floyd is one of the best example but he's nowhere near to achieved it..

[pasawayako]

Lame opposition = Lame accomplishments.

Perfect example is flpyd but couldn't achieved it.

IOW -
Pac for gaining weight and finding slobs with ''titles''
