The Biggest Star in Boxing Today

Sep. 28, 2009 | by Micko Santos

They said that the boxing is dying. Why they said that? Maybe because of poor Pay per view sale, ticket sales, mismatch bout, etc. The last man brought boxing alive is Oscar Dela Hoya, He is the biggest star in the sport in boxing history. The super star Oscar Dela Hoya is now already retired. The question is, who is the biggest star in boxing today? Who is the man that gave the reason to the fans to stay tune in boxing. There are two names on my mind, the P4P king Manny Pacquiao and the former P4P king Floyd Mayweather that is marked as number 2 on my list.

Manny Pacquiao, a Philippine warrior who conquered mexico. He conquered Flyweight to Light welterweight and scheduled to fight an elite fighter, a welterweight champion Miguel Cotto of Puerto Rico. Manny Paqcuiao also known as Pac-man. The most exiting fighter in the world. He started to build his reputation when he embarrassed the future hall famer and number two pound for pound when they collide Marco Antonio Barrera on November 15, 2003 at Alamo dome Texas. Since then, Pacquaio is one of the hottest boxing superstar in the sport. He continued all the way to stardom when he fight toe to toe and defeated Morales and Marquez. In his recent fight, his victories with Dela Hoya and Hatton were added to his greatness.

Floyd Mayweather Jr is undefeated fighter. Also known as Money Mayweather. Many boxing fans believe that Floyd is unbeatable in boxing because of his excellent skills, specially speed and defense. The list of fighters that he defeated including Jose Luis Castillo, DeMarcus Corley, Diego Corales, Arturo Gatti, Zab Judah, Carlos Manuel Baldomir, Oscar Dela Hoya, Ricky Hatton, and his latest comeback fight against Juan Manuel Marquez.

In comparison of the two, I made questions and obviously you already know the answer.

Who among in the two fighters have a charismatic style that brought the fans into imagination? Well for me is Manny Pacquiao, fans love a slugger, without a question. Manny Pacquiao accepted the challenge that made history when he fight against Dela Hoya.Its like a David and Goliath fight. Of course, you cannot take away some speculations that it's because of money making agenda. Well the boxing ring is for entertainment and money. That's the way it is.

Who among in the two is the most exciting fighter? Obviously, It's Manny Pacquiao, Admit it guys, Watching Mayweather fight is so boring. Pacquiao loves to fight and not afraid to take any risk in the ring.

For my next question, who do you think has a greater skills? My answer is Floyd Mayweather. His defensive and counter punch skills are overwhelming without a doubt. The only fighter that can break this is Jose Luis Castillo.

If Pacquiao vs Mayweather will become reality next year, I tell you that this will be the biggest fight in the history of boxing. I am a Pacquiao enthusiast but the truth is, I give Pacquiao a small chance of winning against Mayweather. Why? Because of the huge advantage in size of Mayweather. But on my part I want Pacquiao to knock him out and shut his mouth. If Pac-man has the same size as Mayweather, I assure you that Pacquiao will absolutely destroy Mayweather in the ring in 7th round.

So who do you think the biggest star in boxing today? My decision based on facts, it's Manny Pacquiao.

Santos, sorry but you are an idiot. You all fall back on the same lame " he's too big" fallacy. Did you complain when Mayweather fought bigger fighters? Secondly, Mayweather usually comes in at 148lbs to 152lbs, so where is the size advantage? Manny came in at 148lbs against a dehydrated De la Hoya, which by the way is a terrible way to supposedly prove you are p4p by putting the other fighter at a disadvantage. Third, Mayweather is not boring if you understand pugilism.
