    For Pacquiao's legacy to supercede Duran's, he'd have to accomplish some, if not all, of these feats (I'm making the comparison of what it would take for Manny to accomplish what Duran did):

    1. Dominate his natural weight class for an entire decade. Say Manny dominates the featherweight class for a decade. I assume he'll fail at this one.
    2. Be considered by most experts the best ever in such weight class. I assume he'll fail at this one, too.
    3. Go up two weight classes and beat another all-time great (SRL) Say, Pac going up to 135 to face Castillo, and beating him.
    4. At 31, go up yet another weight class and be competitive against an all-time legend (Benitez), and beating some contenderes as well (Cuevas, Moore) Say, Pac going up to 140 and being competitive vs. PBF and even beating Hatton and Zab.
    5. At 32, go up one final weight class and be extremely competitive against yet another legend and top 3 all-time in his weight class (Hagler). Say Manny goes up to 147 and goes the distance vs. Oscar.
    6. Continue being a contender at such weight and, at 37, gaining the title off a very solid fighter in his prime (Barkley). Say Manny beats Margarito for the 147 lb title.

    If Manny were to accomplish those feats, then yes, his legacy would surpass that of Duran. Tall ask though.


    In the meantime, not even close.
    this is the same guy who said Barrera should stay at 135lbs so he can beat Corrales, Castillo and Freitas. Said, Barrera shouldn't stay at 130lbs anymo becuz no BIG fight is there. !!!

    You're a class idiot above regular idiots.

              So not only can't you write, you cannot even read properly in your own language? My God you're one uneducated dumb****.

              I want your ****** ass to post the exact phrase where I said Barrera would beat Corrales, Castillo and Freitas. With link. I mean right now. Or else you'll be exposed as the lying ***** you really are.

              I'm waiting.
