      I've seen that article before. It's not the first time it was posted here. If the votes were done at this era that's most likely to happen. With any people who can use the internet and do not know the sport way back when there was a standing 8 count on pro fights, 3 KD rule, 15 rounds.

      I'll leave this thing to the boxing experts and historians and not some random internet votes. It's much better when it's official.

          Shall we agree that Roach has trained many great fighters. And he himself says that Pac is the best hes ever trained.

              I wouldn't rank him yet. The 7 titles are impressive, but 2 of them were ring titles. 4 lineal championships are impressive. However, when you look at it from an unbias opinion, you have to ask these questions. How many title defenses has he had? Has he cleaned out every division? Has he been dominated in a fight before? What prime fighters did he beat in his career? Has he gotten a gift decision before? Who did he beat to make him known as an ATG? Am I ranking him this high because of his KO's?


              Many people forget what Pac accomplished before 130, but I laugh when people say #2 all-time.

                Who are you talking about?

                    Pac must be rated high. Very high! He always did what he had to do, regardless of how good you think his opponents were.
                    How much better could he have beat Hatton? What more could he have done against DLH? Would it have been possible to beat Cotto better than he did? I suppose he could have not been hit even once against Cotto. But what more could he do? Its like are the boxers in history that you think are better than Pac are in human or something? What did they do that definately make s you think Pac isnt in their class?

                      This is what happens when you let the masses decide.
