If Manny Pacquaio wins a 4th belt, will he be ranked higher than Morales or Barrera?

The proof I offer is how Barrera fought against Pac, and how he fought in the past. If Barrera fought the same way he fought in the past, then I'm wrong. Don't be confused by barrera's age. Imo Barrera was not at his best. As far as Sasakul, I don't know how good he was. He seems to be good, and has a good record, but he is 38 today. I mean he lost, and won against yuri arbachakov and i have at least seen Yuri fight. But nobody has seen Sasakul except diehards. He may be good. But Pac had been ko'd twice before that win i believe. Morales and Barrera didn't lose until they fought top notch comp. Don't you think Pac has to do more to be ranked higher than those guys in history??
The KO losses of Pac are always being brought up and they are indeed a stain on his record, but that Pac is so far removed from the present day version of him. First KO loss I still hold today as a LOW BLOW. Him slamming the back of his head hard on the canvas didn't help either. The 2nd KO loss was when he lost his title at the scales. The failed effort to drain himself to make weight took a lot out of him before the fight and it was a body punch that took him down for the count.Last edited by Jose Rizal; 06-14-2008, 07:38 PM.Comment

At the time he fought Pac, Barrera was concensus #1 featherweight and was the Ring's "People's Champ" and widely held at least a top-3 p4p fighter. So him fighting the same way in the past is a big "IF." He also had back-to-back losses in his prime to a prime fighter named Junior Jones before.

Barrera fought Pacquiao in the same fashion as he got his biggest wins against Morales and Hamed. Pacquiao simply battered Barrera into a pulp and never lets him get into a rythm. And yet this same Barrera knocks out Paulie Ayala and beats Morales again immediately afterwards. Thats just not possible even for the great Barrera unless he was in peak physical condition.Comment
