better resume..hopkins,pacman

[Toney616]

C'mon, he was unranked and badly faded, and hadn't prove he could fight at the top level since Cotto fight, it can be argued that the Marquez win was better but it obviously depends how you saw the fight, it will always be clouded with controversy.

He was still fighting a tough opponent much bigger than himself.

Hopkins................................

Size isn't everything, the state he was in at the time is much more important, its not a good win and does nothing for Pacs resume.

If you agree to fight at a catch-weight, then you cannot hold it against your opponent if you lose. Pacman beating Margarito would be equivalent to Hopkins beating a decent cw

[IronDanHamza]

The only win that Pac has that's better than the Tito win is the Barrera win.

And, nobody mentions Pac win over Ledwaba, that's a very underrated win. Ledwaba was arguably the best 122 pound fighter at the time.

And, Pac took that fight on 3 weeks notice and destroyed Ledwaba.

Like I said in the history section It's an underrated win, better than some wins these idiot Pacqiauo fans scream an shout about. Especially considering the factors surrounding it.

But it's about as good as Hopkis win over Echols or Holmes, IMO.

It's a tie for me, I picked Pac coz he's my fav fighter.

I wasn't referring to the catchweight, I was referring to how faded Margarito was.

No it wouldn't because Margarito wasn't decent, and hadn't proved he was decent, it would be the equivalent of Hopkins taking on a once decent cruiserweight who had got brutalised in his last significant fight, had a year and a half of inactivity, and looked crap against a journeyman.

LOL!! All your points on Margarito versus Cotto, let's see you man up. Margarito is still elite and will destroy anybody not named Pac, Mosley or Mayweather at WW.

Bernard hopkins is better but it's close. His title reign, best wins and consistency rank him higher.
