Has Pacquiao's legacy been built on shot/ruined fighters?

      I can honestly keep going.

      When he beat Erik Morales in the rematch, Erik was coming off a loss to Zaheer Raheem.

      When he fought Marco Barrera in the rematch, Marco was coming off a loss to JMM.

      This is a trend.

          Let me give you a comparison here. Pacquiao has actually given the first defeats to 6 undefeated fighters at the time he fought them as compared to Floyd who has only fought 2 undefeated fighters in his whole career. Think about it. He needed to fight Morales 3x because of the money and the legacy. He defeated Barrera in 2003 who went on to become a champion for years. No need to talk about the Marquez fights because it's obvious. Dela Hoya challenged him not the other way around. The next obvious challenge after dela hoya was Hatton. Cotto was top 3, or 2, or 1 depending on how you rate him and is a stable mate, bigger money fight, but still is a top and dangerous welterweight. And these are only the big named guys he fought. There are a lot of low weight fighters who are unknown in the US, but is known in asian countries that were big challenges at the time he fought them. Don't be fooled by other haters opinion who has only known Pacquiao when he stepped on the SFW to WW division. He was already a great and devastating fighter in the lower weights before he even stepped up on these weights. His original monicker, "The Destroyer", was given to him for a reason.

              Nah, Mayweather is just as ripped.

              It's funny how Pacquiao fans can only respond with pictures, sarcasm and whining.

                I like how Floyd fans always start a hate thread with, "I'm not a Pacquiao hater, he's one of my favorite fighters" and then completely discredit him.

                      The two undefeated fighters that Floyd beat were both ranked in the top 10 pound for pound when he fought them.

                      What about the ones Pacquiao fought? Where were they ranked?
