"His 62-7-2 (win-misfortune draw) record is more noteworthy than Mayweather's 50-0," global go between Sean Gibbons said during the week after week Philippine Sportswriters Association Forum at the Amelie Hotel in Ermita region.
In spite of the fact that he might be one-sided – since he fills in as MP Promotions' President – Gibbons feels what the Filipino star has done exceeds the undefeated Mayweather's immaculate imprint.
Last July 20 in Las Vegas, Pacquiao, ten years more established at 40, gave Keith Thurman his absolute first misfortune in 30 battles.
"What he's (Pacquiao) done in the most recent year, Manny Pacquiao (and) Sugar Ray Robinson are the two biggest warriors at any point," said Gibbons, whose customer base likewise incorporates ruling International Boxing Federation super-flyweight titlist Jerwin Ancajas, ex-best on the planet Marlon Tapales and a group of other Filipino punchers.
"Indeed, even at 40 years of age, Pacquiao is making history. No one's doing what he's doing," he said.
"Floyd wants to utilize the Senator's name. The Senator's heritage is developing, developing and developing and Floyd's gone bonkers (hence)."
Pacquiao is as yet commending his most recent success and won't restore the ring until the primary seven day stretch of 2020.
Mayweather's name is being referenced and Gibbons concedes Pacquiao's is wanting to get one progressively break at Mayweather.
"Everything is equipped towards getting a Mayweather rematch yet in the event that it doesn't occur, there are still alternatives."
While Mayweather, 42, has never tasted destruction, his last couple of triumphs have come against flawed restriction.
Subsequent to beating Pacquiao in May 2015, Mayweather filtered out Andre Berto in September of that year.
At that point Mayweather took on MMA pride Conor McGregor in August 2017 preceding figuring in a sham of a show coordinate with an absurd little Japanese kickboxer who was dispatched in under a round toward the end of last year.
