    These versions of Marg and Cotto don't do one thing great either. They're a shell of their former self.

    However, I would favor that version of Cotto that Pac fought over Bradley. I'm not so sure about that version of Marg that Pac fought
    That version of margo would have 15 pounds on Bradley. bradley can't crack an egg, Pacquiao hit margarito with everything over 12 rounds, Margarito almost dropped Pac with a body shot, Margarito fought with one eye most of the fight and landed 200+ shots on Pac.

    That Margarito would have killed Bradley. get real.

          Yet who are the top WW's now? Considering 2 of the belt holders are a joke already.

          Floyd is "retired" who is left ? Ortiz? You really want to derail his career this early?

Within a year and 1/2 of May 2009 aka 3 fights, he had taken out 3 of the top 4 on that list, with the last straggler getting his in about 2 weeks. Pacquiao cleared out the division. People acting like there were better fighters/challengers at WW than those guys

                Too bad a 140-lber with no heart dominated the glass-jawed cabbie killer Berto before Manny got to him and you can't use him as a crutch anymore... So who from May 2009 to now would have been more impressive at welter?

                Zaveck? Senchenko? Throw some names out there... whose left?
                There was no body, that's the funny part. Pac has cleaned out the 147 division on 2 years. A division that was ****ing stacked when he got there. A division that he's campaigning at while being one of the smallest men in that division. The hate this guy gets from a few fools is ridiculous. The arguments against him are two fold, half ass conspiracy theorys, and lame knit picking.

Margarito was flat footed, come forward, no defence fighter, and since the devastating mosley loss, his punch output has also decreased, so was not the same ruthless volume puncher he once was. Pac had all the necessary tools to win against the very vulnerable maragrito. REMEMBER skills win matches not size.
                Hahaha that's funny. So size doesn't matter? Why doesn't sergio jump up and face vitali or his brother then? Would be an easy win for homi, I mean size doesn't matter in boxing. Really weight classes are just around for show. U my friend no not of what speak sir, please refrain from embarrassing yourself further.

                    No question "The Event" was a fix.

                      It doesn't matter, haters gonna hate. Fortunately most legit boxing media give Pacquiao his due.
