    Would definetly improve it.

    most top 20 ATG have career defining wins against HOF's or ATG.

    Floyd does have De La Hoya and Mosley and Marquez, but due to the time he fought them, they will be questioned.

    He needed a Kosta or a Cotto in his prime. Or a prime Mosley, or a prime Manny to put him in the top 20 IMO

    I already know the reverse logic on it if he fought Cotto instead of Baldomir

    "He obviously ran from Baldomir, Baldomir's size and strength would have neutralized his speed like he did to Judah"

    Manny is past prime, even Ray Charles can see this.

    do you think pacquiao is still in his prime at 33 with 17 years of professional ring age with a style not suited for longevity?

    and then he wouldve ducked Spadafora and Paul Williams....:patsch

    Undisputed champions in 2005 when Mayweather moved to 140:

    135: Diego Corrales
    140: Ricky Hatton
    147: Zab Judah

    those guys all have something in common....

    I think only Mayweather and Marquez (with a spot on gameplan) are the only guys at 140-147lbs who can beat him. So yeah, I think he is on the edge of his prime...as is Mayweather.

    Peak - Reach a highest point, either of a specified value or at a specified time.

    Prime - A state or time of greatest strength, vigor, or success in a person's life.

    Pacquiao is a more complete fighter now than he was when he picked up his best victories. Pacquiao peaked around the time of Hatton/Cotto. He has been on a slow decline ever since.

    P4P - As I said, this Pacquiao is more complete than the younger version, and I would favour this version against the younger version P4P.

    Unless we see a drastic drop in his physical abilities, etc...he is at the latter stage of his prime.

    When Mayweather fought Mitchell Tszyu had already lost to Hatton and retired.
    Mayweather's bout against Baldimor was his third at 147. Cotto would have his first at the weight a month latter.

    I actually found a very good article about the Mitchell fight from a few years back. I'll post it when I get home and find it

    It doesn't matter who he fought or when. People on here don't like him so they will always make stupid excuses to discredit what he has done.
