Hatton has even said that it would of taken a much lesser fighter to beat him that night than Pac. If you watch the Lazcano fight you can see that Hatton was hardly the best at 140lbs anymore.
De la hoya was past it and that fight was a circus anyway. Top fighters like MAB have even questioned why this fight even took place.
Cotto was not a top fighter when they faught. After wars with Clottey and Margarito there was not alot of the once top level fighter Cotto left.
Marquez won both times. Watch the fight again and you will see that Marquez deserved to win both times.
Yeah he may have beaten an over the hill morales but lets not forget that Morales still won the first bout.
And what about his performance VS Mayweather. Oh yeah pusseyed out over a few needles. Would any true warrior be scared of giving a bit of blood?
No unless they are scared they are going to be found out. Also you have to question whether it really was Manny Pacquiao who solely won all those fights? Or was it purely down to his nutritional methods.

Pacman is great for the for a couple of reasons. He takes on any challenge , he puts out his opponents in great fashion, and just charismatic and his whole persona , he is a humble guy who is enjoying success after coming from nothing , dont hate on the guy. Now his resume might have some "weak" names on it. De la Hoya and Hatton are looked by some as fights that catapulted him. And IMO Nobody gets credit for beating De la Hoya at this point of time , at least in my book. Too inconsistent in his fights in the past few years , not in the best shape , kind of washed up and just weight drained. Now Hatton , Hatton is a good fighter who earned his big bucks brawling , and had the perfect style to get koed the way he did. Just look at hisfight against Mayweather, he wasnt looking for a ko , and he just adaopted so well , to that fight , that Floyd threw that left hook perfectly after going at it for as long as they did. Hatton gave mayweather the blueprint to ko him , and Floyd just used it to perfection , other than that. Manny still has a lot to offer , and IMO , HOF , one of the greates of all time , and If for some hes not there yet , with his next few fights he will achieve that level and gain that respect. He is a hero of the sport of this era. PERIOD

The bold is all i agree with, Marquez won the first fight and the second could have gone either way, I had Marquez by 1 point.
Its not as good as some of his fans may think it is but its pretty damn good...titles in a bunch of weightclasses...Cotto, Barrera, Marquez, Morales, Hatton, Solis(good name)...
He's a HOFer no question and an ATG...but he's still below those certain greats in the 80's to me...
Morelas was shutout by Raheem before Pac's 2 wins
1. Pavlik kayoes Taylor who beat Hopkins who schools Pavlik
2. Mayol kayoed Sosa who beats Villoria who kayoed Solis who kayoed Mayol
3. Mayorga kayoed Forrest who beats Mosley who kayoed Mayorga
4. Ali kayoed Foreman who kayoed Frazier who beats Ali
5. Duran beats Leonard who TKO's Hearns who KTFO Duran
6. Moorer decisions Evander who decisions Foreman who KTFO Moorer
7. Tarver KTFO Roy who decisions Hopkins who schools Tarver
8. Junior Jones KTFO Barrera who beats Morales who TKO's JJones
9. Roy beats Antonio Tarver who beats Montel who beats Roy :D
10. I cant think of more at the moment :D
STYLES makes FIGHTS and that's 10 examples
Raheem is all WRONG for Morales
Morales is still a Good Fighter at that point. He was still able to beat Diaz but didnt get the decision.
Hatton has even said that it would of taken a much lesser fighter to beat him that night than Pac. If you watch the Lazcano fight you can see that Hatton was hardly the best at 140lbs anymore.

thats not true the GBP is the one who said that pacquiao is afraid of needles they were putting words in pacquiaos mouth so knows the facts before you quack
if Floyd beats both Mosley and Pacquiao he will have the better resume/career hands down.
It kills Pactards to even read that.
Dont think so Bro. If it were true it would kill Pactards to hear it, but the fact that its not its water off a ducks back.
Pac beat DLH and Hatton better and also dared fight Cotto, and not only dared fight him, beat him like no one ever could. Its hurts flomos to hear that more like it.
actually his resume is better in reality than it looks on paper.
Agreed. It's easy to look back and try to poke holes in the fighters he beats but that's just because he so thoroughly beats such great fighters people have to find reasons besides Pac being that good.

Hatton, DLH, JMM, Barrera, MOrales, Cotto, DIaz were all past their primes the haters say.
But bottom line is no one would have beat them the way Pac beat them! So his resume is not over rated.
No one would have sparked Hatton like that. Not even PBF if he rematched hatton and DLH.
No one beat Cotto like that, or could have. Clottey even though some people believe beat Cotto, not like Pac did thats for sure.
And we all know its Pac who shows people how things are supposed to be done.
was hatton a bum before or after floyd beat him?
joe calzhage > pbf . if you keep bringing the "never lost" card
Huh, who has fought more world champions and has moved up 5 weight divisions?
Hatton after floyd was no longer a world class fighter and when he faught Pac he was more or less a bum.
Calslappy never beat any world class fighter, beat a potentialy world class fighter in Lacy. A win over Hopkins was a poor one as only by split decison and then ducked a rematch. A win over RJJ has no credit bar the name.
Then you have a win over Eubank who was over the hill. The only other majour win he has is over Kessler who is hardly hall of fame worthy. I have ''never lost'' a fight but thats due to me not fighting noteworthy opposition.
Mayweather has a resume to be proud of and has never been knocked down so that is why he is the greatest.
the defining factor of a world class fighter is the floyd mayweather factor.:puppy_dog
floyds noteworthy fighter is corrales.
