      i knew he would be a good welterweight when he demolished Hatton. Hatton was supposed to bully Pac, he was supposed to be stronger and bigger than Pac. but after beating Cotto from there on i knew he would dominate the welterweight division. ive been a believer since the ledwaba fight.

          the truth is, haters gonna hate. even if pac beat Godzilla they would still hate.

            People were believers as soon as he came on the scene and beat Barrera. But the thing is Pac keeps stepping up in weight, so understandably he is made underdog in the earlier days when he is stepping up in weight class for the first time. Because it is supposed to be hard to do.

            But he has been more dominant than anyone could ever imagine, so they eventually made him favourite as he steps up weights even.

            SRL was probably an underdog against Hagler as well, but its not like people didnt believe in SRL.

              He wasn't proabably the underdog. He was the underdog.

              And actually, no, pretty much everyone expected Ray Leonard to be murdered by Hagler.

                    Honestly, the fight i thought would be incredibly tough and that he would probably lose, was the Marquez rematch.

                    I always go back to this fight when i want to see the best of Pac.

                    He can easily outbox, outwork, and outlast guys like Cotto, Clottey, & Marg, but Marquez made him step up his game in that fight and he did an incredible job. I was rooting for Marquez all the way, but i could not argue with the decision because the fight was close and entertaining and Paqc got the KD.

                      Yes i thought SRL was underdog but couldnt be 100% sure. So that is one difference between Pac and SRL. Pac is favourite to beat guys even when he steps up in weights. But hang on a second, can you remember if SRL was favourite to beat Donny lalonde?
