    Of course, hes one of the greatest mexican boxers of his era. His rivalry with barrera was one of the most legendary in boxing history.

      Pacquiao wasn't in his prime. He wasn't developed yet.

      It was right after his loss to Morales that was the final step of his transformation.

        It's hard, what's the definition of ATG, is it top 20 fighters? Top 50? Top 100?. I'm just going to make up my own definition. For me top 50 are ATG. Top 100 is great. In that case he is a Great

            People that discredit Pacquiao would probably say not an ATG because by claiming Morales as an ATG would elevate Pacquiao's win even more. Despite the fact that Morales fought Pacquiao and beat him ( Though Pacquiao at that time was still a 1 handed fighter) And still went on to have two more titles in two different weight classes.

            According to some posters here, Morales and Barrera are overrated and not as great as Diego Corrales.

              No question about it. He may have been a ****, but what a great fighter.

                  of course he is.

                  The only people that discredit him are ****** idiots on this forum who want to discredit Pacs resume.

                  So petty.
