    Let's not even talk about his 1st 40 fights !
    OMFG, if anyone but Pac had this line up, that guy would be laughed out of the sport. Pac fans have to go waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back to when Erik and Marco were active to find credibility in Pac's resume. When his fight with McGregor fell through he was hoping he wouldn't have to take on his 2nd tough fight IN A ROW

    ''What about Thurman, though ?!?!?''


    Agai your standards are far too high all the guys you've mentioned were relevant at the time and during that whole time pacquiao wanted a fight with mayweather but he chickened out

    You hold pacquiao to what standard?

    What active fighter has a better resume than him today and what fighter of the past ****s on it from a great height?

    You gonna have to go all the way back to srl? To find someone with a better resume than pacquiao

    Whoever you'd say has a better resume than pacquiao anyone could trash it like you trash pacs and use all the fighters excuses after they lost to said opponent

    Opponents are easily slated

    Look at Jeff lacy ,relevant at the time but anybody who looks back on calzaghe beating him would laugh if someone said it was a good win..the guy was gash

      Yep! Cotto was in a tight spot but the money was there. I don't recall if ever hearing about any rematch at all. It's just a lot of revisionist history on here.

        1) The names I listed were HORRIBLE. May would have breezed through them. Just TERRIBLE
        2) All Pac had to do was agree to random blood tests, LIKE HE DOES NOW ! Back then, he had a dozen excuses why he shouldn't have to
        3) Pac's resume is trash
        4) Pac hasn't fought anyone PRIOR TO THURMAN that wasn't a loss in the making. Pac loves to fight THE WORST VERSION of a guy. FACT !

        When will a Pac fan give up those 8 great names

          Pac is all about getting a guy at their worst.

              Cotto is pacs best win he stopped him a guy that gave mayweather he'll,pac had him running in the end

              Cotto had mayweather running all night

              Pacs best unofficial win is mayweather ,he beat him in every department


              Pacqauio may have had back and fourth action with the list of fighters but that's because he gives the fans what they want

              Mayweather would have breezed away from any action with his iv filled legs

                      When it comes to Cotto, you have to add the *
                      Pac would NEVER have fought the Cotto May fought. FACT
                      Pac fans lost their shlt over that schooling. A couple even committed suicide. FACT
                      Pac's resume is trash
