    He only ever refers to historians when they say something nice about Manny Pacqiauo. That's it.

    He even tends to make up that "Historians never say that about so and so"

    Guy tried to claim historians don't rate Sugar Ray Leonard.

            Whitaker and it's not even close yet. Maybe at the end of Pac's career. Floyd has the potential. Hopkins could get close if he beat Dawson, the best super middleweight and then grabbed a crusierweight strap although that is a lot to ask of anybody but that really is what makes people great being able to go above and beyond.

                Come on seriously mane I really thought you were a great poster from the history section. Their is no way in hell Floyd Mayweather even comes close to Hopkins, Pac, and Roy Jones Jr who are really close to each other on an ATG list I believe.

                But to have Floyd above Hopkins is absolutely ludacris. His welterweight resume is not that impressive at all. He retired to many times and fought Hatton instead of Cotto & Margarito not to mention he won't fight Pac.140 he wasn't that accomplished either. Lightweight he was pretty good but thats it. Hopkins has a historic accomplishment, 20 title defenses, P4P since the late 90's. Top 10 middleweight of all time in one of the greatest divisions whereas Floyd isn't top 10 anywhere except skill & potential wise.

                He's closer to Barrera & Wlad.

                  We like hearing you tell us who your favourite is. But we are still waiting to hear what it actually is that Sweet pea went above and beyond.? I think that refers to what Pac has done? Things like taking his power up with him, and being as dominant or even more so in the higher weights.
                  Do you want Pac to fly before you are impressed? He is supposedly superman but cant fly and your dissapointed am i right?

                    Voted Pacquiao because I didn't see Whitaker. I would've voted for him otherwise.
