Some quotes i've taken from various articles on Manny. haters shush please, actually speak all you want, his legacy has been made, and a place in all time history stamped! From the Telegraph.uk I'll keep posting more articles on Manny since there's is 4 bajillion of em out there!

Bill Dwyre, LA Times "Pacquiao won with yet another epic performance. The pride of the Philippines has now become the pride of all boxing. The Puerto Rican Cotto, one tough customer, was reduced to spending the last four or five rounds simply running, surviving, maybe hoping for enough energy for one lucky shot. He has now taken his seventh title, a record, in seven weight divisions. Henry Armstrong became legendary for that, and Pacquiao might be even better."

Michael Rosenthal, The Ring "The Filipino marvel has drawn more comparisons to the greatest fighters who ever lived after another spectacular performance against Miguel Cotto on Saturday in Las Vegas. And deservedly so. He is dominating his era as few fighters ever have. The fact he has been a force in seven divisions is ridiculous. I still have trouble comparing him to the likes of Henry Armstrong, Sugar Ray Leonard or Muhammad Ali. That’s probably because he remains active, which doesn’t provide us with the proper perspective on his career. I also believe he must meet a monumental challenge before we sign off on his all-time status: He must meet and beat Floyd Mayweather Jr. Then it would be very difficult to say he’s not on the level of an Armstrong, Leonard or Ali."

Greg Bishop, New York Times "The brutal beating continued Pacquiao’s progression, adding to a résumé that must now be weighed against the best in boxing history. Pacquiao has continued to move up in weight, still beating formidable fighters, winning as easily at 112 pounds as at 145. Before Saturday, he had earned six titles in six weight divisions, forcing Oscar De La Hoya into retirement and knocking out Ricky Hatton with a savage blow rarely delivered by a man his size. With Pacquiao’s place in history cemented, Mayweather seems like the logical, blockbuster opponent. Pacquiao said he would not move up again in weight. This was more than just another knockout. This one was historic."

Jun Medina, Manila Times: "Manny Pacquiao stopped World Boxing Organization welterweight champion Miguel Cotto in the final round of their bout by technical knockout to win a record seventh world title in as many weight classes, cementing his position as the best boxer of his era. Pacquiao demonstrated yet another facet of his greatness by standing up to a bigger and stronger natural welterweight like Cotto—and proving that he was the stronger puncher and the better boxer. Manny is the greatest boxer of his era, that’s for sure,” Roach said during the post-fight press conference."


Abac Cordero, Philippine Star "On a cold Saturday evening, Manny Pacquiao put on the hottest performance of his life, winning an unprecedented seventh world title in different weight classes, and this time making sure that he’ll be remembered forever as the greatest of them all. Except for Pacquiao, perhaps, winner of world titles in the flyweight, super-bantamweight, featherweight, super-featherweight, lightweight and junior welterweight. No other fighter in boxing history has won as many crowns in different weight classes."
