that was rubbish
Sugar should have known better than to comment on a fighter who's career is still unfolding
Bert Sugar lost a little credibility before he died, unfortunately
what has been proven since Sugar died is.....
* Pacquiao is NOT better than Mayweather
* Pacquiao could never distance himself from Marquez
* Pacquiao is better than Tim Bradley, but not by much
I have Pacquiao in/around Hoya
he beat a bunch of names (not as many as Hoya)..... there are question-marks over some of his wins/opponents (more than Hoya)..... the main difference is, Oscar fought EVERYONE, until he retired
Sugar did not see Pacquiao clearly outboxed by Marquez in the 3rd fight, and KTFO by him in the 4th..... he did not see Pacquiao undressed by Mayweather..... and he did not see Bradley run him real close.....
..... also, those factors..... will put Pacquiao's loss to a faded Morales in better perspective
but yea I do agree with you, Pac and Marquez are both great
