    Who is Pac's best win? An old Barrera or a shot Morales? Or maybe the Hatton that got his 0 snatched from him by Mayweather? Maybe it was DLH? Or Cotto?

    Mayweather has a number of career defining wins under his belt. Genaro Hernandez, JMM, Jose Castillo II and Canelo Alvarez, Shane Mosley all come to mind.

    It's like if DURAN or HAGLER aren't in your WIN column then your championship reign means nothing. LOL

    Hatton, Corrales and Canelo were all undefeated WORLD CHAMPIONS when Mayweather beat them.

    How many undefeated champions has Pac or any modern day champion defeated?
    barrera was 29 yrs old, ring/lineal champion, ranked #1 at 126, #3 p4p.

    it was pac's 1st fight at 126, he fought in front of a barrera crown in san antonio, texas.

    but yeah let's act like it wasn't a great win.

      JMM win was good yes but you could also do the same thing with other mutual opponents but it's somewhat pointless and styles make fights.
      You do realize Erik Morales was coming off a LOSS every time Pac fought him, right?

        Floyd DOMINATING JMM after coming out of retirement is more impressive than any single victory Pac has ever had.

        The exclamation point is that JMM not only knocked out Pac (after being dismantled by Floyd) but after fighting the both of them, he agreed that Mayweather is a much better fighter than Pac.

        What else needs to be said?

        Game over.

          don't losses count on a resume as well as wins? I'm not talking about BS like Manny/Bradley either.
          Maybe he had an off day?

              Did you watch the pre-fight stuff right before the Pac-Barrera I fight?

              They were talking about MAB having a steel plate in his head. MAB himself admitted to being unmotivated for that fight and kept comparing a young Pacquiao to himself.

              Pac was seen as the young upstart while Barrera was considered a faded champion. 29 is DOG OLD when you started your pro career at 16 years old like MAB did.

                Better than Cotto? Oscar? Barrera, Morales?

                Who did JMM beat other than Pac?

                  How about this... Hatton and Corrales were top 10 pound for pound when Mayweather beat them. Matter of fact... Corrales was ranked higher than Mayweather at the time on the Ring's pound for pound.

                  Was ALgeri or Bradley ranked in the top 10 when Pac defeated them?
                  Bradley was. Algeri wasn't.
