The "Shot" Excuse....

[Alibata]

Even before the fight with MAB and both Morales fights, I was already prepared for this excuse. It seems that many experts and fans have predictably gone to it. Could be true though. But the body shot was the one I saw take Morales' legs away. Does not make a difference. Pac is now Boxrec's #1 lb for lb fighter.

As far as the boxrec thing goes.. Boxrec is not very credible for anything except boxingrecords.
I have no clue what significance there is in being boxrec's pound for pound #1. They practically rank anyone who is on the list #1 after beating another p4p fighter.
Great win by Pacquiao, though.

You're exactly right, but I think Manny has definitely staked his claim in the Top 3 Pound-for-Pound with this huge victory.

I heard boxrec's rankings are computer generated. If that is correct, it is less biased. However I don't agree where they put Floyd at. Though alot may dislike PBF, I think he is at another level than most boxers on the list. He should be #1 on all lists.

boxrec has the worst ratings system on the planet. nicoli valuev is top 15 p4p, and byrd is top ten. the basiclly have no clue what they are talking about
