Well you just said he fought the best at 140 and he will have fought 2 out of the top three welterweights in March. So yeh, I would say he has fought the best the majority of the time.
And as for, "wow 8 divisions it's amazing but there's more of a story behind it."
It's the same as your claim that SRR fought 10 HOF. Beating 10 HOF is amazing but there's a story behind that too. Some of those were smaller than him. Some of those fighters wouldn't be in the HOF if they were fighting today.
And Manny can be ranked higher than Floyd even if he gets beat. Duran is ranked higher than the other big 3 of his time despite losing to every single one of them.
Duran is ranked higher than them based on his supremecy at lightweight.
If we're talking best welterweights and middleweights of all time, Duran is behind all of them.
The nominated fighters were selected by a jury of boxing analysts - Al Bernstein, Tom Hauser, Ron Borges, Jean-Philippe Lustyk and Colin Hart. Over 500,000 votes were cast.
World's Greatest Ever Featherweight
1. Manny Pacquaio 56% 2. Willie Pep 15% 3. Salvador Sanchez 8%
In the Greatest of All Time category, Pac placed second just behind Sugar Ray Robinson and ahead of Muhammad Ali.
In the lightweight category, Roberto Duran was the top vote-getter, followed by Henry Armstrong and Floyd Mayweather Jr.
