If Manny beats Spence by the miracle of God, is Manny the GOAT over Mayweather?

[JustOnce]

Mayweather never had guts to face Manny during his run. This is a fact. He only was man enough to face him after potential career-ending knock out at the hands of Marquez. This is also a fact.

Calzaghe beat Hopkins and Jones JR, but no one sane would rank Joe over those two. Nor are Hopkins and Jones Jr undefeated like Joe Calzaghe.

So if Pacquiao somehow beats Spence by some miracle and work of God, is Manny the GOAT over Mayweather in their era?

 

[don't quote me!]

Conversely, the better Pacquaio does now, the better Floyd's win over manny looks

Yeah that's bullshit. I guess when you cherry pick opponents, you can retire with undefeated records.

 

[Hagler]

That's a big if.

 

[Seano]

Well, I think you have to consider where Spence is in his career. Has he really proven greatness yet? I don't think Spence's story has been written yet, if Manny beats him now, he'll be comparable to Keith Thurman.

If Manny is so great than why would Mayweather cherry-pick him?

Obviously Floyd didn't want none of Manny when he was on his run. Mayweather cherry picked Pacquiao only AFTER he got knocked the fuck out by MArquez and it wasn't clear if he wouldn't retire or ever be the same.

you don't understand. manny is simultaneously great when he's fighting everyone else, and coming off a vicious KO loss and clearly over the hill when he's fighting mayweather.

he's schrodinger's goat.

 

[Cuttyrock]

Sadly he will always be a close second but damn feel very grateful to have watched the Mayweather and Pac era also hope they bring back legendary nights

@everyone, this guy trolls each sub forum. Don't take the bait.

 

[cuban23]

He won't be the GOAT, but he will be ranked ahead of Mayweather.

Keep in mind Duran lost to Hearns and Hagler, no one rates those two ahead of him.

You are the troll.

 

[Boxiana]

I can see that, actually

 

[burningspear]

Would be a crazy win, up there with the craziest, these are the sort of things get you remembered.

He’s the goat just for taking the goddamn fight. Floyd objectively is the goat. He’s done what Manny has, moved up in weight, without getting ktfo

You just shit post all over the place

 

[Misery Signals]

There would be a strong case to rank him over Mayweather but I still wouldn't put him over Robinson.

 

[TheOnlyGreatest]

Yeah that's bullshit. I guess when you cherry pick opponents, you can retire with undefeated records.

Yeah, he really cherry picked by fighting some of the greatest fighters of the past two decades. Just say you don’t like him and keep it moving.

 

[boxingskills]

I got Pac > Floyd already. It makes the gap bigger.
