    Pacquiao GETS Four (and Six): Real History in Our Time

    By Cliff Rold - Many a fan has asked the question: what would it take for a modern fighter to make a run at Sugar Ray Robinson’s hold on the mythical top of the sport’s all-time ratings?

    It may be the answer is nothing.

    If not, the answer is that we are witnessing it in our time.

    On Saturday night, with a frightening precision, the same Manny Pacquiao (49-3-2, 37 KO) who came from behind on December 4, 1998, to knock out lineal and WBC World Flyweight champion Chatchai Sasakul in the eighth round with a single punch, walked through lineal World Junior Welterweight champion Ricky Hatton (45-2, 32 KO) in one second shy of six minutes.

          And he is either at or within his peak.

          I hope he fights and beats Floyd and then go for a seventh title at the Welterweight division before fading into the sunset of all time greatness.

          Too bad Floyd vacated his lineal welterweight title for a chance for Manny to be a 5 time lineal champion too.
