    Pac is ahead of Leonard and Duran already and will be right up there with Muhammed Ali if he beats Floyd.
    ******* is a hell of a drug.

      Almost time for Floyd to hand his V-Card over to Pac and for Pac to be proclaimed the greatest fighter since Muhammed Ali!

          If Pac wins this weekend where would you put him? Likewise for Floyd.

            Sugar Ray is one of the greatest because he fought everybody. But he also lost to almost all the big names! Hearns beat him once, Duran beat him once and Hagler probably beat him.

            Duran is greater than everybody on that list except Pacquiao just because of the terror he was as a lighweight. He had no business fighting as a WW. He was a square welterweight.

            Pacquiao is the greatest because of what he has done. His resume is littered with HOFers like Ali's. And when he beats a guy, he BEATS a guy.

            As soon as Floyd loses that zero, he will rank with Whitaker. I see no difference between these 2 guys except Floyd managed himself better to keep that zero. A guy that simply fights for decisions should NEVER be an all-timer!
            Great breakdown. The hour is at hand. This is going to be ****ing NUTS!

              Get on the "Pac is the best since Ali" Bandwagon before it's too late!

              Can any more of you poor misguided lambs officially come on board of the Pac bandwagon before he proves to the world that he is a top 5 All time great?

                Now I'm not saying he is the greatest (certainly one of) but wow 40 pages and all those votes and mentions for Wladimir but not a single mention for Evander Holyfield?

                  Leonard or Duran for me.

                  Maybe Duran just shades it bearing in mind a lot of his most famous fights came above his natural weight and past his prime.

                    He fought them all but lost way too many times. Gene Fullmer who died this week and 2 wins apiece over Carmen Basillio and Sugar Ray Robinson and who mentions Gene Fullmer among the greats?

                      that is good, but barkley and moore aren't that special

                      leonard beat the trio, and benitez

                      and im more of a fan of duran, i just wish he hadn't let that leonard win go to his head, he turned to crap after that fight imo, was very good fighter, but no longer the atg duran
