    Hatton was lineal at JWW.
    Cotto had a title and was seen by some (not me) as the top WW.
    true that. i don't think the wars against three Mexican HOFs were cherrypicked likewise.

      Hatton was a live dog vs Pac. That time, not even Pac's biggest supporters thought he'd KO Hatton that easily. You think more people woulda given Bradley a chance against Pac than they did Hatton? Again, be serious homey.
      dog, while hatton was going to get ko'd by juan lazcano had it not been for the ref, bradley had just come off an impressive win over the wbc jr welter champ and the guy that hatton ducked.

      and bradley beating kendall holt>hatton beating malignaggi

        You simply bein unrealistic if you think Pac shoulda fought Bradley over Hatton bro. He had an alphabet belt. Hatton had the lineal title and was worth a ton of $. If Pac stayed at JWW instead of movin up, I woulda loved Tim to get a shot even tho I'm certain Pac would KO him. It just ain't happen that way. And the Holt fight happened 1 month before Pac-Hatton. They were signed and ready way before that. Bradley wasn't even an option man.

          pac fan, how are you going to sit there and tell me that pac fought the best in erik morales when raheem beat him right before? there were 4 champions in that weight at the time. why did pac fight morales? because of $$$

          pac fan, how are you going to sit there and tell me that pac fought the best when he faced barrera for the 2nd time after barrera was clearly past it and just lost to marquez? there were 4 champions in that division. why did pac fight barrera? because of $$$

          pac fan, how are you going to sit there and tell me that pac fought the best when he decided to fiace DAVID ****ING DIAZ the weakest link at light weight and novice bum?

          pac fan, how are you going to sit there and tell me that pac fought the best in de la hoya? a 36 year old fighter that was rated no where near welter weight rankings or p4p rankings? there was a rematch with marquez, or any of the other top jr WW's or WW's to choose from. why did pac fight de la hoya? because of $$$

          pac fan, how are you going to sit there and tell me that pac fought the best in ricky hatton? a fighter he had just witnessed almost getting knocked out by juan lazcano and looking good against a one handed fighter that even juan diaz is not scared to get hit by. there was 4 other champions at 140 that were better than him but didnt get rated higher than him because they didnt have as big of a name. why did pac choose hatton? because of $$$

          pac fan, how are you going to sit there and tell me that pac fought the best in miguel cotto? he had just witnessed front row miguel cotto getting a gift decision in new york against an inferior fighter.

          OPTION A: mosley(destroys the #1 welter weight in brutal fashion)
          OPTION B: cotto(barely gets by clottey while receiving punishment)
          pac, chooses option B.



          pac always chose the easier side when there were more challenging sides he could have chosen

          and so mayweather and pacquiao are not too different you see
          The ****** post of all time. Cherry picking Cotto? Dela Hoya? Hatton? Marquez? Barrera? Morales? Are you f@cking insane? Go home and F@ck your momma @zzhole.

              so pacs win over hatton is on par with floyds win over baldomir? after all, baldo did hold the lineal title.

              and now we are going to defend fighters based on what fight was worth more $???

                Check my post history. I wanted Pac to fight Bradley at JWW, not Cotto at a catchweight. And I never was one of the cats who thought Mr boat buyer shoulda fought Marg instead of Baldomir in fall 2006. You exactly right. For the lineal title, Mr boat buyer made the right choice. So did Pac. The $ is just a bonus.

                  ok, but dradley was the harder option. young, strong, fast, skilled, athletic, never been ktfo. hatton was the easier option, just got ktfo, un-skilled, about 10 guys he fought had him in ***** street, beer drinker, fat food stinker. pac took the easier option. what ever business and career sense it made, he took the easier option of the two.

                    LOL at this thread. Ok let's say Pacman cherry picked his opponents but at least his moving up the weight and beating the hell out of those supposedly bigger, stronger fighters. Before all those fights especially the last three a lot of people were saying pac's gonna be badly beaten but as it turned out it was the exact opposite and every win some haters just want to find excuses.

                    Equinox next time you make a thread make sure you put some sense into it and not just hating the man.
