    What hagler had to go through with his reign. I rate guys who moved up and dominated over guys who only dominated one weight class. That's my criteria others say you only need to beat one fighter and you automatically get int the top ten. Lmao not mine.
    If your criteria Is based on level of competition, moving up In weight and titles as your previous posts Indicate, how Is It possible to have Mayweather at number 3, yet Pacquiao didn't make the list.

        Pacquiao has all of 6 title defenses that's pathetic especially considering this era. PAC like Duran would win a title but never defend it or prove how dominate the y are.

        If you look at pacs career all time you could probably place him all time at 122? I'm stretching here because I rank morales and Barrera ahead of PAC at 122! They did more at the weight. PAC fans like Duran fans look for one victory to hoist their guy up on a. Pedestal for PAC its Barrera Duran it's Leonard no matter what they did afterwards those two victories make them top ten ATG ahead of charley burley, Ezzard Charles, jersey joe, Sam Langford yeah right

              Didn't Mayweather need to beat Oscar twice in order to really beat him? Wasn't it closer than Duran-Leonard?

              Shane Mosley is not a top 50 ATG. It's arguable whether he's an ATG or not. I can certainly see why a lot of people would say he's 'just' a HOFer.

                You can't fight everybody so I don't knock PAC for not fighting Floyd and his career isn't based on one fighter. He lost to torrecampo but he came back to win some big fights it's when you compare him to other skilled fighters who have competed in his weight class you realize how limited he was.

                PAC all time is 70-80 very flashy but he never showed he could dominate a division and reign as the best. Hence the joke around here is everyone thinking PAC and Floyd were on the same level it's too funny.

                  One victory to hoist their guy up on a pedestal?

                  Ok, I thought you were trying to have a legitimate debate, I was wrong.

                  You are not qualified to form an opinion on Durans greatness.

                    Yet, your list is dumb.
