    Could you imagine Ricardo Lopez beating Cotto, De LaHoya, Clottey,ect @ welterweight?

    Jeff Mayweather made a great point...


    Pacquiao started out at 106 and went all the way up knocking out guys at Welter...

    The Great Ricardo Lopez was around the same size, so could you have imagined him naturally moving up and knocking off the top guys at Welterweight in his career....


    Lopez has a higer KO ratio than Pacquiao...so...thoughts...


    I'll wait...

          pac's training regimin and diet are state of the art ****. pac is being monitored by peeps from UCLA.

          Ricardo Lopez is old school.

          you can't really compare the 2. its like apples and oranges.

            oh really so mayweather wasn't knocking people out at 130, 135 pounds, didn't knock undefeated ricky hatton out at 147.

            Further floyd is a defensive wizard not an offensive fighter.

                  Because he didn't take any risks in doing so, otherwise he might have himself...

                  Pacquiao to me isn't some Shaolin Monk doing extraordinary ****. He KO'd (actually ref stoppage) Cotto to many people's dismay, and we're supposed to believe it was because he used drugs? Didn't Henry Armstrong go up and down continuously in weight and defend titles...in the 1930s? So being pac gets a KO over Hatton, 1 ref stoppage (Cotto) Oscar quitting, and 1 UD over Clottey, and he's all of a sudden Krypton's Only Surviving Son?

                  All this **** coming out now about Mosley, yet Pacquiao is still the one under the microscope. Unbelievable lol...

                    Pacquiao has the physical attributes and athleticism that Lopez does'nt.

                    You can twist and turn alot of things in life but one thing is for sure, through out Lopez's career, he could still make flyweight, as of now Pacquiao cant make flyweight, he cant even make super featherweight.
