yeah.... and you judging pac by his whole body of work?
they both fought delahoya, hatton, cotto, mosley, jmm.
floyd fought a superior delahoya. pac a superior 126/130 jmm.
hatton, mosley they both fought were similar.
cotto is debatable. cotto was 145 cw but pac was at 130-135 a year earlier. cotto at 154 is meh. evens out imo.Comment

No they were not. Mosley was coming off a big win over Margarito when he fought Mayweather and was considered generally recognized on the pound for pound list. When he fought Pacquiao he was coming off a one sided loss to to Mayweather and a draw with Sergio Mora while no longer on the pound for pound list. How is that similar?Comment

ok. his is a somewhat different question than what you asked.
Regarding resume, a tough loss still takes away from a resume and a dominant win over a lesser fighter either keeps you in the same place or slightly elevates you.
A loss, except an outright robbery like sweet pea/Ramirez or Bradley/many, is always negative on a fighter's resume IMO.
most losses hurt. some dont.
a loss (IF COMPETITIVE) is worth more than a win over a lesser fighter.
my example JMM4 vs. algieri
losing in a FOTY to an hofer like jmm is worth more than waxing a scrub like algieri.
30 yrs from now ppl will remember that great fight. even an L.
next year i'll forget pac even fought algieri.Comment

just coming from a W or a L doesn't mean much. if around the same time for a fighter.
pac coming from a loss to morales 2006 is same guy coming from a win ove barrera 2007.Comment

Of course it means something. Or we wouldn't keep records. In your rule book, losses don't count, eh?Comment
