Is Pacquiao being P4P number one based on beating a Fringe Opponent?

[Fox McCloud]

Pacman is P4P #1 because he has listed a huge resume of great wins. He beat the 3 Mexican featherweight legends. He won a title at 135 after starting at... 108 and winning a title at 112 (which proves his competitiveness at that weight class). Not only did he win the 135 belt, he completely stomped Diaz (or so I'm told, I didn't see the fight).

Just incredible. He would get my vote over Floyd for P4P #1 now if Floyd were still around. I was never comfortable putting Pacquiao over Floyd until now... I just don't think Mayweather has an argument to be #1, since his claim to fame is winning belts in so many multiple divisions. Now Pacquiao has done that, and crushed ALL the big names on the way.

ATG, here Pacquiao comes if he starts cleaning out 135.

It was based on being number 2 after Mayweather then Mayweather retired. Plain and basic common sense.

"whenever I see Pacquiao I see my young self in that fighter".

Educate yourself.

Maybe you're an idiotic Fake FLoyd fan.

You don't get it?

Hes dazed. He don't know what the **** he's talking about. lol

Manny Pac was moving this dude around and couldn't even land a single solid blow to change the fight.

Whoever Manny fights next, its gonna be big, and ima watch.

I hope its Valero.. Even though the dude doesn't have all the publicity.. I want Manny to expose him. Hes overrated. He will get exposed Tye Field status and make him stay away from the US. Ban his passport, void that ****.. To never come back to the US of A!!!

The thing is the haters will say when Pac beats Valero that Edwin did not really face any good opponents, an over hype fighter.

I don't even think that's the issue after a title win at 135.

The resumes now speak for themselves.

And with your pre-school thinking, that qualifies Manny for being mentioned alongside MUHAMMED ALI.

Carry on.

He'd still be number 2 if Maywether didn't retire.

[boxingfan4life]

i would say yes because what other active fighter is above him right now. Remeber mayweather is retired now.
