        But that was one of Floyd’s biggest wins, according to the faithful

          if that's what they call one of the biggest fights then we can say floyd has a n ordinary record.. not impressive at all.

            As good as Corrales was, and as madly as I loved him, Chico was on a level below Mayweather. I picked Floyd to win at the time, even if my heart was with Chico.

            But Pacman overwhelming Barrera was not an easily predictable result in those days.
            Man I just hate that we lost Chico so early!

              ....but you want to give Floyd mega credit for out pointing a Manny who been through his share of wars plus been ko'd...

                I know, the bias against Pac is astranomical. The standards for pac is too high. Pac had 70 fights when he fought floyd, he'd been koed, yet it's a good win for floyd?

                  Exactly. I don’t know why people try to change history. Add in the wars that barerra had gone they. Great win by Pac but cmon now. And yes I know barerra was the fav too.

                    Pacquiao was just considered as a filler fight for barrera for the next morales fight. No one expected him to win or no one even crossed in their minds that pac would completely obliterate barrera.

                      Easy choice Pac v Barrera being that MAB is a greater fighter than Chico.
