    Duran's legacy still surpass Pacquiao's......Duran is no doubt the best lightweight ever.....his win over Leonard cemented his ATG status although his loses to Hearns and Hagler, although bigger men is notable. one thing I hate about Duran: he showed he lacked heart when he quit in his rematch with Leonard and it will forever be a part of his legacy

      Duran is top 10 all time....Pacquiao aint even top 20. End of Story.

      Pac would have to wreck havoc at 140 and 147 for me to put him almost as high as Duran.

        Duran's first ever pro fight was at super bantamweight....He ruled the lightweight division which is 3 division above super bantamweight.....

        Pac's first ever pro fight was at Junior Flyweight.......3 divisions above junior flyweight is Bantamweight (118 lbs)

        why would you like Pac to wreck havoc at 140 and 147 which is 8 and 9 divisions above jr flyweight?

        anyways, you dont need to answer my question.....you are clearly biased against Pac

            My fault Pac needs to wreck havoc at 135 and 140...he fought one fight at each division, he needs to do more there to strengthen his ATG status

            But Pac wants to fight welterweights below 147. That doesn't make sense. The title shouldn't be on the line.

            And I rate Pac higher than one of my favs Floyd on the ATG list so I'm not biased.

                  Pac already surpassed Duran.

                  Pac's already the 1st & the lone 4 weight Lineal Champ.

                  Pac Already tied DLH as 6 weight Champ and 2 wins away to become 5 weight Lineal Champ.

                  Duran Struggled when he moved up to Welter & Middleweights and has bunch of loses there. Pac as he moved up becomes the more Dominant Force.

                  Pac will be rated higher once he's done with Cotto, PBF & Mosley!!! He'll be at least top 3 P4P of all time once he retires!!

                    I voted NO.

                    They are both very different, and Duran beat Leonard, one of the greatest fighters ever. Leonard was at his peak, and at his best weight.

                    Duran managed to hold his own against possibly the greatest MW ever over 15 rounds in prime Hagler.

                    But Duran also lost often enough for people to think he was finished, only to amaze people with great comeback wins over Barkley, and Moore.


                    Pac has acheived alot, but he (IMO) lost twice to JMM, beat an old Oscar, and stopped Morales twice when he was almost done as a fighter. Barrera was also past his best.

                    The main differnce is Pacs oppostion doesnt compare to Durans.

                      Cosign homie... but all i can truly say about Pac is that his career is not yet finished therefore this conversation should take place once Pac is truly retired.
