Is Manny Pacquiao Bad For Boxing?

[generalbulldog]

Manny "Pacman" Pacquaio has greatly divided the boxing community into different factions. Those for him and against him. Many of those fans in his camp think he's the greatest thing since slice bread. And then there are those fans that just don't like him for whatever reason.

This is a serious question because of many boxing fans have called Manny Pacquiao a pussy and coward for wanting to fight Cotto at a catchweight, which would be his first. To be fair I never considered the Oscar fight a catchweight because you can't expect someone to jump 3 weight classes from 135 to fight you when you called him out and it was at the 147 ww limit. So there are endless discussions about the Pacman for or against him in every boxing forum.

So is Manny Pacquiao bad for boxing? Would boxing be better if Manny Pacquiao never picked up the sport?

Discuss.

you're starting to be quite transparent, just like FagBoxer

"Is Manny bad for boxing?" Lmfao! If he is then Mayweather is 10x worse.

neither are bad for boxing, Manny is an explosive entertaining fighter, and Mayweather is the pure essence of boxing when it comes to skill and technique, what both do in the ring is amazing in their own right, this thread is stupid

NO need to come with personal attacks.
Dont' be pissed off because I said Roberto Duran was not a great Macho warrior that you think for saying No mas to Leonard and quitting.

personal attacks? i'm stating the truth you've already made a handful of threads all just trying to diss Manny, and if it's gotta mean something if i'm the one complaining about it seeing how it's already been noted that i'm not the biggest Pacquiao fan, i think he's overrated when it comes to his place in boxing history, and also in his standing right now, but he's definately not bad for boxing, he puts it all on the line when he fights, and aside from this catchweight nonsense and the retarded excuses he's come up with after some losses, he's been a good sportsman overall
