A review of Pacquiao�s career and accomplishments. Good read!

[IronDanHamza]

floyd could'nt have been ranked higher than cotto at that time given the only win he had since he came back was jmm who was then a 135lber .. like i said , shane was the #1 but given cotto beat him already at ww, it's understandable why cotto was viewed as the superior fighter to him ...

alos , when pac fought ledwaba , barrera was already at 126 along with tapia..so was morales .. and no , i was talking about agapito sanchez ...

He was ranked higher I think but I can understand that. The highest Cotto was was #2.

Again, Cotto beat him in 2007, a lot had changed by the time 2009 came along. To a point where Cotto wasn't considered the best at 147 and at the very least it was arguable. Saying he was "the best" at 147 is simply not true.

Yes, you're right. I thought the Ledwaba fight was in 2000 around the same time Morales and Barrera faced off the first time.

That said, Ledwaba still wasn't the best at 122. Bones Adams was still in the mix in 01 and ranked higher than Ledwaba I believe.

Not even sure where A.Sanchez. He might have been in the mix too though since you mentioned it. I don't really remember.

Man, you need to get out more.

Yeah, you spend 1 post saying how the article was good, then have 5 other posts trying to tear it down.

You just couldn't say "good read", and leave it at that.

I'm not tearing it down at all. The article is good, very informative and a good read.

All I'm saying is two particular points are false.

The rest is all correct and again, a very good article of an all time great career.

And? Pac beat all 4 of them!

Huh? That has nothing to do with nothing. Cotto was not the number 1 WW when they fought Mosley was.

Same guy that would defend everything that was in a Floyd nut hugging article, just has to refute a Manny article. Not surprised.

"B b but, Angel Manfredy was an absolute monster."

You know the deal, don't play dumb.

No, that's not true at all.

If an artcile said Mayweather fought "the best" fighter at 140 and "the best" fighter at 154 then I would call that out aswell. Have done on many occasions in a similar positions.

OK, then I'll stop messing with you. As long as you're not bias, I'll leave you alone.

You should've also added 147, but then you could say the same thing for Pac since Floyd was the other best WW.

I apologize, no hard feelings.

LOL at the cry babies in this thread that are hurt that Cotto was not #1 when Manny beat him. I mean, if we are talking facts, that is a fact. Does not take away from the win over Cotto, but the writer is being praised for writing such a great piece, but that part about Cotto isnt accurate. Period. Good piece though.

147's a funny one because despite fighting the Lineal Champion at 147 it just so happens to be one of the very worst Lineal Champions in the history of the sport.

That said, despite holding the Lineage it was still up for debate between him and Margarito.

So yeah I suppose 147 can be put in there too.

And allegedly Floyd never fought a number 1 WW. Even though he beat Shane 2010 who was number 1.


"But but but he fought Baldi over Marg" Oh shut up.

Baldomir was even ranked over Margarito, for what it's worth.
