I think Pacquaio would have cleaned out 140 and enhanced his legacy if he stayed

    Those whipping right crosses were so damn quick.

        he would surpass Floyd Mayweather Jr.

        at the moment, they both have held 4 lineal titles in their careers.

            Some say Ricky is still laying there to this day next to PWill.

              Lineal is good to have but sometimes who you fight is even better. I mean they both have one weak lineal champ that they beat.

                I agree 140 probably would've been Pacquiaos best weight class

                  He actually surpassed Floyd until Floyd "tied" him. Who cares really? achievements get very hazy. Pac beat Diaz for his divisional title. Diaz? Diaz shouldve lost to a shot Morales.

                  Arum just wasnt able to sell Morales 4.....politics and what not

                    There are talks of him going down to 140 but the promotional dispute will still prevent a oot of great fights. I think he'll look more potent at that weight.

                      Sasakul was far from weak. He had never been knocked out before and was beasting through the flyweight division before he got to Manny. Manny was a huge underdog going into that fight and was losing big before knocking out Sasakul in the 8th.
