Will Pac be an all time great P4P?

[AREALFIGHTER]

Exactly what I'm saying Bro. That's why I'm saying he probably needs to go up at 135.

That may be to much weight for him although he has a really good chin the guys are much much bigger at lightweight. Manny has all the tools to do so as there is almost no one at LW with his power or speed. The thing I wonder is that fighting larger guys he will get bullied around the ring. He could easily beat halthswayo to break into the light weight rankings. However fights agienst freitas and corralis could be murder. I see beating guzman and julio diaz. I don't know about Juan diaz and Raheem would just bully him around the ring even though this is a winable fight for pac. It just seems like a huge risk to take but thats how you become great. He is still absolutly riped at 130. If James toney can move up and take HW punches maybe pac can move up as well it just makes me a little apprehensive. PAC VS Frietas would be an all time classic.

if ever pac fights at 135 id like to see this fights:

pac-corrales
pac-freitas
pac-raheem

not in order

Well, he will be an all time great.
P4P, can't see it happening.
Not top 10 anyway.
But as someone pointed out, he's only 27, I doubt he's even at his peak yet, ask me this in a couple of years time and I'll give you an honest answer.

I can live with that. That would be crazy though what if we have not seen his best yet?

Don't doubt it, let's just hope he doesn't get in too many wars too soon.

What he did to barrera was amazing. I don't know for sure just off the top of my head but has a superstar like barrera and of his elite caliber been dominated and knocked out like he was. Winky Vs Mosly 1 and winky VS trinidad were one sided beatings in reacent memory but they were not KO's what do you guys think give me some examples of just top caliber blow outs like PAC vs MAB

This just shows how quickly can things change.

Just two fights ago, Pacquiao was labelled a one-trick pony and a one-dimentional wild slugger who is a contender at best. His win over Barrera was a fluke and he was exposed by Marquez as nothing but a "little Mayorga".

After knocking out Morales and dominating Larios, suddenly, his win over Barrera was NO fluke and that they were witnessing more dimensions to Pac's game.

Now, some people on this forums asking whether Pac can be an all time great P4P. Coming from a big Pac fan, I would have to say NO(and never will unless you're Pinoy ). When you mention "ALL TIME GREATS", Ali, SRL, Robinson, Duran all come to mind. Hall of Fame though, Pac is already in.

pac has never backed out of any fight

Thats the other great thing he will fight anyone anytime. The guy just loves to fight you can see it in his face he will never back down even from the toughtest challange because its what he loves to do and the harder the fight the more up for it he will be.

B-Hop vs ODLH.
B-Hop vs Trinidad.
ODLH vs Mayorga. (In my personal opinion).

Pac def will be considered an all time great when he retires.
