      I see Manny losing big to either of the Klitschko's at a catchweight.

        A loss is a loss. No excuses.

        Marg doesnt use his height AT ALL.

        And Clottey weighed atleast 165.

        So no excuses bro.

          Come on man....you know the deal. If Manny loses it will be because he is shot and past his prime....and the wars with Cotto taking too much outta of him.

            So all agreed if Pac loses it wont effect his ATG status at all. We will just acknowledge that Margarito would have beaten anybody that night he beat Pac

              In all honestly If Pep has a losing record to his HOF peer Sandler (3 losses if I'm not mistaken...might be 4) and Duran got destroyed by Hearns and quit against Leonard....and both are top 10....then I can't see how it hurts Manny.

              I'm trying not to be biased, and I'm just looking at this as to how history has treated other ATG fighters in similar positions.

                its how he loses so if he gets destroyed and looks a bum then it wil hurt him in the rankings. e****ially since they are hand picking oppents. it only takes one loss to ruin pac.

                  Pep is still without a doubt the Greatest Featherweight ever. So he still has that in the bag regardless if Saddler had his number.

                  Then look at the names mentioned.

                  Saddler
                  Hearns
                  Leonard
                  Margarito


                  One of those names are out of place..lol. Pac cant lose to a past it Margarito and not have it affect his legacy.

                    Did you know that Vitali started his boxing career at 106 too?

                    So if he declines the 155 catchweight he's obviously ducking Pac.

                    He knows Pac is no Briggs.

                      All agreed it wont effect his legacy. Dont matter how bad Margarito may have looked in his last fight. People make sure they bring their A game for Pac.

                      Pac dont ever get praise from his critics, so they are just waiting to pounce on Pac for when he loses so they can say i told you so he was overated! It aint happening.
