    Yes, but read what people wrote here prior to those fights.

    His Barrera victory is a great one. He still lost to a past-prime Morales, and then beat a VERY shot Morales. Anyone would have to be crazy to have Morales the favorite over Pac after he lost to Zahir Raheem.

      As far as I can remember Morales was still the favorite in their second bout

        Calzaghe it goes without saying
        Hopkins has a better resume than Barrera, Morales and Marquez
        so that win means more plus Joe has never lost let alone been knocked out.

            Who do you all think has the better overall resume?

            Manny Pacquiao's four biggest wins
            Juan Manuel Marquez SD 12
            Marco Antonio Barrera UD 12 and TKO 11
            Erik Morales KO 3 and TKO 10
            Oscar Larios UD 12

            Joe Calzaghe's four biggest wins
            Roy Jones Jr UD 12
            Bernard Hopkins SD 12
            Mikkel Kessler UD 12
            Jeff Lacy UD 12
            chatchai sasakul at the the time manny took his flyweight title was considered #1 at 112 at the time.

            lehlo ledwaba at the time manny took his super bantamweight belt was considered by some to be #1 at 122 at the time and top 2 or 3 by most.

              Barrera is Pacquiao's best win
              and Hopkins is Calzaghe's best.

                before his 20th birthday , manny fought and beat sasakul who had a record of 33-1 , was a flyweight champion and was considered #1 in his division.

                joe calzaghe didn't turn pro 'til he was already 21.

                end thread.

                  pacquiao beat barrera twice.

                  calzaghe beat hopkins once.

                  barrera was close to prime in the 1st fight.

                  hopkins was still good but clearly past prime. hopkins now is at the same level as barrera was in the 2nd pac fight. still good but clearly past his best.

                  oh yeah and while calzaghe's win was controversial......pacquiao's were clear cut and one sided.
