Just make Pac and Thurmon already. Easiest fight to make and WBA could easilty get it done. Let Porter fight Ugas winner fights Crawford and Khan. Let Pac -Thurmon winner fight Spence- Garcia winner.

I usually take rankings from boxrec, the Ring, ESPN, etc. with a grain of salt. I’m curious to know these credible ATG rankings. And what is there to question about how I rank fighters? Just because I don’t put Floyd in a ranking that you do?
couple lists in this thread here.
In part yes. same is if I made a list and left Manny off or ranked him below a JMM or a Cotto. When posters discuss preference or opinion that usually means in lieu of something tangible because when you use tangible criteria the guy they like comes in 2nd, not that you are doing that.
You are right, you are entitled to your opinion and I should leave it at that.
edit: I am in no way undermining any accomplishment Manny has in this discussion we are having.
You wouldn't call JMM inferior because he has a KO win, a draw after being down 10-6 in the 1st round and 2 close controversial losses that the majority of ringside scores felt he won. That isn't the case with Floyd and Manny.
But again you are right in that as a fan you have an opinion and it should be respected.Last edited by The Big Dunn; 01-30-2019, 12:44 PM.

Key word: Subjective. For starters I have my Top 15 ranking like this off the top of my head:
Sugar Ray Robinson
Harry Greb
Henry Armstrong
Muhammad Ali
Sam Langford
Ezzard Charles
Roberto Duran
Joe Louis
Willie Pep
Archie Moore
Sugar Ray Leonard
Pernell Whitaker
Barney Ross
Carlos Monzon
Alexis Arguello
Again, this is subjective and my ranking means squat. I know people will disagree with it. This is another reason why I take boxing rankings with a grain of salt, because you can pretty much change around the way you rank them the way you want to see it as.

On topic now:
I commend Pacquiao for continuously competing even at his age. I would prefer him to have just 2 or 3 more fights but if he actually grabs a win against a top WW that would be quite an accomplishment to his already great resume.

You know you and the rest of the delusional pac fans are really funny.
When Thurman was suggested previously, you guys posted that it was unfair to ask Manny to fight the best at this age. Thurman looks vulnerable against Lopez and many of you are now on board for the the Thurman fight because you think Manny wins. LMFAO!
