Is Pacman More Popular than de la Hoya Was?

[Dizaster]

Sorry but no...

You guys realize that Oscar attended the Grammys the Oscars among other prestigious events?

Pac is the most popular boxer since ODLH and he is very well on his way to being up there.
If what we are talking about is popularity alone it's ODLH.

ODLH broke barriers in a lot of countries where boxing wasn't even taken into consideration.

I think that's it right there...

Unless of course Manny beats Floyd or gets big in politics then he will leave Oscar behind.

Outside of the Philippines not yet.

If it had been the 80's or 90's when boxing was the mainstream full contact combat sports, maybe Pacquiao can outdo ODLH, but today in the advent of UFC , MMA and other martial arts sports i don't think he will be more popular than ODLH was.
