Will we ever see a legendary run like what Pacquiao did from '06-'09 again?

    100% sure he was on peds.

    Head growth, Punching power above 135, maintained speed, no change in body fat percentage, pulling out of fights kell brook style

      There are questions that goes with each win but one thing that is hard to knock on Manny is that in almost all those fights, he was never picked to win or in dominating fashion. FEW would have had him winning them because typically he had a lot of disadvantages somewhere to his opponent.

        Do we count the fact morales lost to Raheem the fight before, odh was 147, he drew with jmm, cotto was 145?

        If so then we’ve seen better runs by a lot of people. If we go with just name value it’s up there. Quality wise it isn’t that significant.

          It was a great run but let's not exaggerate for reasons already mentioned here. Also, he never beat Marquez. He's virtually 0-4 against JMM if all things were fair, at best he's 1-3.

            its not a fact that he drew with marquez since he beat him by SD during this period. i think you are confusing the word fact with opinion or you just dont know what we are talking about which is normal

            also a floyd fan talking about name value...NAME THE PRME FIGHTERS FLOYD BEAT oh my that always works. its low i know

              larry morales ended up on a 4 fight losing streak but thats much different than being on a 4 fight losing streak as you implied/misrepresented. also 2 of those losses were to pac so its a pretty silly comment. its also silly saying the #1 and 2 guys in 2006 were irrelevant. especially since morales had just beaten pac in an epic fight. MEH HE'S IRRELEVANT CAUSE HE LOST WHILE MOVING UP IN WEIGHT THE FIGHT BEFORE. CAREER OVER.

              oh wait you love spence right? what happened to brook in the fight before? oh yeah and he got brutally ko'd right? morales just got outpointed by a slick fighter but he was shot right? brook though was an amazing win for spence fighting a guy who just got wrecked. if you were consistent you would say BROOK WASN'T RELEVANT! hey at least morales had just beaten pac 2 fights earlier. what the hell did brook ever do? nm i don't want your head to explode from your own hypocrisy and nonsensical fanboy opinions on which fighters are relevant and which aren't.

              oh yeah since you are the age police. and are going to say morales was old when pac beat him. guess how old he was? 29...now guess how old brook was when spence beat him. 31. 31 is more than 29! or wait age doesn't matter now right? it only matters when its ggg or someone you don't like or wait its ring age that matters now right? cept when floyd fights that never comes up ever how weird...

                    weren't you just saying how cotto was drained by pac? now canelo is on the win list for floyd even though he was drained? hmmm ok its the incredible vacillating man everyone! watch him go from post to post contradicting himself.

                    also that list sucks

                      Everything is the same with Floyd except power cause he had none so are you 100% sure he was cheating too? Just curious
