    IF Pac beats Floyd....whether by Decision or KO....

    Where would he rank in terms of ATG?

    My opinion....top 10.....

    7 Division titleholder, KOing/TKOing each title holder in the process, evolving with each fight, has proven doubters / haters wrong everytime, beaten every type of boxer put in front of him (again IF he beats Floyd)...other than a final showdown with Mosley...what else would there be for Pac to accomplish in boxing? Kinda reminds me of Jordan when he won his 6th title....

    Please no hate....only objective opinions and thoughts....we've been on a roll with some good "boxing talk" lately....let's keep it going.

    Oh...my thoughts on the fight playing out....

    Pacquiao will play the aggressor puncher/ boxer on Floyd....Floyd will be countering...but not effectively enough for the judges to score for Floyd....if Floyd allows that to happen past round 6....he will be FORCED to engage Pacquiao for the remainder of the fight...and that might be a fatal mistake.....I predict Pacquiao with a 10th round TKO...Kenny Bayless will stop the fight...

        Top 25, sure... maybe Top 15 by some ways of thinking,
        whether or not he beats Mayweather. Floyd holds no belts,
        and hasn't fought meaningful comp recently.

        Beating Shane/Berto would be far more relevant in ATG terms,
        over the long-haul: 10, 20, or 50 years from now... boxing fans
        will look at a back-out-of-retirement Floyd who loses to Pac,
        and shrug --what was that fight all about? Why was it made?

              Exactly. And, for that reason you can not bump Pac that high for this victory. I mean he would get credit. But, should not be top 5, or top 10 all time kind of credit.

                Pac is doing things that no one has ever done as Arum said. Look at the faces of all the boxers Pac has beat of late and how battered they looked. People are so impressed with him they accuse him of steroids. How people behave towards Pac, speaks volumes and louder than any words will ever do, and all counts towards Pacs greatness and it all adds up.

                He was favourite against Cotto for good ness sake. Pac has come a long, long way. How many people in Cottos career were favourite against him, let alone someone who came from 116 or is it 106?

                He is top 10 now perhaps and if he beats PBF, skys the limit.

                  Where do you rank Mayweather all time?

                  Can I see your top 10 list?
