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!

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?

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.
