A caption for one of the pictures of a young Pacquiao reads "16-year-old Pacquiao in 1996". I hate to state the obvious, but it is impossible for someone born in 1978 to be 16 in 1996. 74.215.197.161 ( talk) 05:01, 1 January 2017 (UTC)
I have found his birth register, known as the exact extracts from birth certificates. It shows that his name name is "Emanuel" and not "Emmanuel". He was born in Brgy. Magsaysay, Kibawe at 7:45 AM. That's all. 103.14.62.156 ( talk) 17:12, 21 January 2017 (UTC)

Why the phrase "widely considered" in the lead section was changed to "considered by some"? Is "widely considered" a non-NPOV? Pacquiao is a global superstar so "He is widely considered to be one of the greatest fighters af all time" would be more appropriate to use right? Just asking. Pacphobia ( talk) 15:53, 7 August 2017 (UTC)
As per WP:WEASEL I have removed this line from the article. We should not be adding unsupported attributions to articles. Either we say WHO considers him to be one of the greatest professional boxers of all time or we leave it out of the article. Spacecowboy420 ( talk) 06:12, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
So, one source from Reuters equals "many" people? Also, if the source had been removed then it's an unsupported attribution that gets removed from the article. If you were so desperate to restore it, then you should also restore the source. The burden is on the editor adding or restoring content, to make sure that there are sources supporting that content. Spacecowboy420 ( talk) 08:49, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
I think it's reasonable to say "Pacquiao is considered to be one of the boxing greats" according to the Reuters source. STSC ( talk) 14:30, 8 August 2017 (UTC)
Just to recap: is the issue here whether or not Pacquiao is one of the greatest of all time, or currently a lack of sources supporting the claim? Mac Dreamstate ( talk) 19:12, 22 August 2017 (UTC)
The boxing related content has become substantial enough to create a split article. Mitchumch ( talk) 21:49, 2 July 2017 (UTC)
This article shouldn't be left devoid of his boxing career. See point No. 6 of WP:CORRECTSPLIT. There should be a summary of his boxing career on this page. I think with a few alterations, the lead section of the boxing career article is a good start for a summary section on this article. Lizard ( talk) 03:11, 4 August 2017 (UTC)
This article is a trainwreck now. If you're going to split the article, you need to write a summary of appropriate length. Right now, this article is a disaster. HampsteadLord ( talk) 15:26, 30 August 2017 (UTC)
