      Agree. Since Marquez in 08'....

      Pac-Diaz was decent.
      Pac-De La Hoya was crap
      Pac-Hatton was a good fight
      Pac-Cotto was a good fight
      Pac-Clottey was decent/okay
      Pac-Margarito was crap
      Pac-Mosley was crap
      Pac-JMM was crap going into it
      Pac-Bradley is a very good fight

        Not much like it use to, where it was easily definable who the 'man' was. Now its subjective and always open to interpretation. Now you have a sea of champs, and other than those who you know are the truly elites, its difficult to distinguish and then you resort to analyzing round by round each fight.

        So I read lineal champ, and its just a ho-hum talking point just to make someone sound relevant.

          Hes fighting Cotto at 154 so then he'll be "ranked" (your favourite term lol) at 154. So Pac and Ortiz will be free to fight for the lineage!

            Floyd is going to jail. If Ortiz and Pac fight (assuming Ortiz beats Berto) then it's certainly for the lineal.

              So I guess I was wrong in thinking you'd actually see the ******ity in that....

                  The #1 and #2 guys fighting to re-establish lineage and the man in the division makes perfect sense.

                    Yeah so in your theory, Ortiz can become lineal champ almost straight after getting KTFO by Floyd. That is the logic you're working with

                      Pac-Oscar was great. Oscar tried to cherry pick a guy with one fight at lightweight, f***ed up his weight, and got the sh** kicked out of him. It was fantastic, a very funny night.
