      seriously , of course pacquiao.
      Pacquiao beat many more world class fighter than mclarnin did and even more by way of stoppage which is yet even more impressive given that in pac's days you have only 12 rounds to stop your opponent in and in mclarnin days you had 15.
      also , pacquiao ruled in more weight classes.
      pacquiao is the greater fighter and by way far it is an offense to him and to sound reasoning to even ask such a dumb question.

        WTF? No he didn't........McLarnin Resume>>>>Pacquiao Resume

        McLarnins beat Fidel LaBarba, Pancho Villa, Bud Taylor, Sammy Mandell, Al Singer, Billy Petrolle, Benny Leonard, Sammy Fuller, Young Corbett III, Barney Ross, Tony Canzoneri, Lou Ambers.

          It's very close. Very close, now. I would be prepared to see Pac ahead of Jimmy now without throwing the toys out of the pram...as to my own list, I'd say that the fact that Frankenfrank has Pacquiao higher is enough to convince me to leave McLarnin higher...for the moment.

            Actually McLarnin beat world class opposition from Flyweight to Welterweight as well. And he didn't skip Bantamweight like Pacquiao.

              McLarnin actually beat 9 HOFers, 3 of them twice:

              Lou Ambers
              Tony Canzoneri
              Barney Ross (regained Welterweight title)
              Young Corbett III (won Welterweight title)
              Benny Leonard
              Billy Petrolle (x2)
              Sammy Mandell (x2)
              Pancho Villa
              Fidel LaBarba (x2)

                pac beat :
                Morales (*2) , Barerra (*2) , Marquez (1:0:1 , but really twice too) , Delahoya , Cotto , Hatton , Clottey

                and that's ignoring his record below 126 , and also ignoring David Diaz .
                and we are dealing with a former flyweight here , FFS !

                    Personally gentlemen i'd be inclined to knock the Benny Leonard win off of Mclarnin's resume for the purposes of comparison we all know he beat the name but not the fighter.
