    1. The Morales wins cannot be described as "great" in any sense. This is because Morales was completely dominated by Zahir Raheem in the fight prior. Losing every round. He was clearly finished but Pacquiao never showed any interest in fighting the winner and instead Morales a division below where Raheem gave him a boxing lesson. How that can be called "great" is beyond me.

    2. People say "World champion doesnt mean the best" but it's the most clear identification of a fighter's skill level. Larios and Solis are both average fighters. Larios had to move up 2 divisions to face Pacquiao and was KO'd in 3rounds in his previous fight by Israel Vasquez. Solis still hasnt won a belt.

    3. Hatton's IBO belt may have counted as a "world title" but in reality nobody takes the IBO titles seriously. Floyd never won an "IBO" belt. He always won the WBC belts. Which are the most important. No matter how you try and twist the situation, Floyd has beaten 6 more world champions. And it should be 7 because Marquez clearly beat Pacquiao in the second fight.
    you put shamba mitchell for floyd's did'nt you ?....one who got destroyed by tsu for the 2nd time before floyd fought him..and erik>>>>>>shamba by far....hatton was a paper champ at 147, thats why his win to collazo was controversial, thats where floyd fought him..tho he was the lineal cahmp at 140 when pac beat him, in 2 rounds..lol..again floyd fighting jmm at ww was a ****in joke....jmm was to pac what castilllo was was to floyd!...big deal!

      No *******, Floyd proved he was the better fighter by beating Castillo decisively, Pac has yet to do that with JMM. What the hell are you talking about?

        People sometimes just don't understand. No doubt Floyd is an outstanding boxer, but not everybody sees it that way because they hate his guts. I don't blame them because this is the road Floyd has chosen. He wanted money more than recognition. Floyd said it himself that he don't care about the legacy. So Floyd fans just stop it, people know about how great a boxer Floyd is, they just don't want to let you know. Because they get a laugh at you all getting pissed about it.

            clottey-coming off of a loss

            margo-coming off of a suspension and yet another catchweight
            Nothing to argue in my mind bro. Marquez beat Pacquiao twice.

            I don't see why anybody hates Mayweather for his work inside the ring, the guy is the outstanding fighter of his generation.

                You cant even compare two obvious fights , your that much of a hater that you cant give Floyd any credit for giving Oscar 16 pounds , instead you try to pump up Pacs beat down of ODH weighing 147 on the night as opposed to 160 , you people are ***ed .

                  What this man said. Funny how world champions are well beyond their primes but still are world champions in some people's opinion.

He was clearly finished but Pacquiao never showed any interest in fighting the winner and instead picked Morales a division below where Raheem gave him a boxing lesson. What's even more interesting about the fight is that it was turning out exactly the same as the first one until Erik's legs gave out from the weight drain. How that can be called a "great win" is beyond me.

                    2. People say "World champion doesnt mean the best" but it's the most clear identification of a fighter's skill level. I don't know any other fighter who has beaten 15 world champions right now. Larios and Solis are both average fighters. Larios had to move up 2 divisions to face Pacquiao and was KO'd in 3rounds in his previous fight by Israel Vasquez. Solis still hasnt won a belt.

                    3. Hatton's IBO belt may have counted as a "world title" but in reality nobody takes the IBO titles seriously. The WBC belts are the most important.

                      An undefeated Hatton. The champ (ODLH) at 154 and SSM. What's so embarrassing about that?? The bookmakers certainly thought these contests were much more competitive than Pac vs Clottey vs Margarito vs Cotto.

                      sportsbooks paying north of $6.00 on Clottey and MArgo against Pac. Cotto was paying $4.50-$5.00. Hatton, SSM and ODLH were not this wide against Floyd. So the pro's disagree with your assessment.
