    B.Hop beat more ELITE fighters in their PRIMES than BOTH of them COMBINED!!!...do the math!!

        Pacquiao destroyed Barrera when Barrera was in his absolute prime. It is arguable the best win of the last 20 years

          when Barrera was in his absolute prime
          Thats debatable. He retired back in the late 90's after losses to Junior Jones and then came back for the war in 2000 with Morales took alot out of him. He started boxing back in 1989 so to say he was in his absolute prime in 2003 after his wars and losses is questionable at best

              It's assbackwards to say Hatton was in his prime vs Manny but wasn't vs Floyd. Barerra was shopworn vs Manny it was still a excellent win I was shock by the beating he put on him but he wasn't in his prime.

                      You do know that question was "which ELITE fighters were in their prime" do you not?

                      Again let me stress the word "ELITE".

                      So you can take Pascal, Pavlik, Johnson, and Tarver off that list. I'll give you Trinidad and Hoya, you can make a case for those names.
