    Pacquiaos resume is not 'spectacular' as such, his main wins are doubles of Morrales,Barerra and Marquez. 3 opponents really...

    The one thing that stands out and will stand out with Pacquiao is that he's soon to be the first guy to win 4 lineal Championships. That **** dont happen everyday... This is why he's one of the greatest fighters of our era...

      A) who said "prime Baldomir"?

      B) "prime" , in general, means that you beat a guy WHEN IT COUNTED. For example, Erik Morales beat Pac when he was near the end of his prime. Erik then got Ko'd twice by Pac when he was done. Which fight should I give credence to?

      So, please, help me understand how those two runs I listed above are substantially different. Thanks in advance.

        and just because when he was in his twenties he fought at a lighter weight, doesnt mean you cant grow into a heavier weight naturally...

        he is not a natural 135 lber anymore.
        You really dont know why he fought Oscar???

        I can think of over 40 million reasons.

          Pac DOMINATED a Prime Barerra.

          Pac lost a solid decision to a still-good Morales, then KO'd a clearly faded Morales.

          Pac fought mostly even with JMM. Some will tell you that Pac lost both fights. Or at least the second fight. I feel Pac won BOTH on the strength of the KD's. JMM would have won, but couldn't keep his butt off the canvas.

              I know why he fought Oscar, but defending Floyd for not fighting true welterweight threats because he is a natural SFW, after he just fought a 5' 11" Oscar whose fought AT Middleweight is ridiculous.

                You can attempt to re-write history. But your earlier post bemoaned the fact that FMJ didn't fight until age 37,38,39. I don't think a knowledgeable boxing fan would encourage a SFW/LW to fight until then.

                Sorry, you just aren't knowledgeable. Your insults won't conceal that.

                No worries, sweetie.

                  And to assume that Floyd is 35+ and NOT PRIME anymore, lets us all know your an idiot.

                  Thanks, in advance.

                      Actually he was just saying that Floyd retired prime and didnt fight til his late thirties like most fighters do.

                      He could have said 34-35..and his post would have meant the same thing, that he RETIRED IN HIS PRIME.
