    The evidence here would suggest otherwise.Just because you haven't seen someone doesn't mean everything you HAVE seen is better.

    My reason was good enough, look at the atg list on espn or any other greats list for that matter, your one of very few people who have him at the top. I respect your opinion though, I just dont see him being a force in either the 60s 70s 80s era. An atg would have to beat those hagler, hearns type guys to be considered, and i think he just falls short of that.

    Well if Hearns outboxed SRL like he did in first fight no way Pac survives, Hearns had no problem going 8 9 rounds and believe me thats all he needed:D
    Floyd wins UD he would not go for the kill against Pac to much risk.

    SRR is considered the GOAT by some. Yet he fought in the 70's. An era when people were smaller, weaker, technically ****, and less fit than the modern day fighters. You do know modern training is superior right?


    As for Paulie Malignaggi. He is good, but not on Pac's level. He just had hand problems. If he didn't have hand problems he would have possibly been a top 40 ATG and would've beaten Hatton. Not too sure about Khan though, who is another future ATG. Only gripe I have with Khan is that he's with goldengirl. Dude needs to join Bob Arum, the GOAT when it comes to promoting. Arum would have made him unified champ by now.

    Point taken, I could just see pac lunging in like hatton did and getting caught after being worn down. Maybe not to the same affect though as you pointed out.

    Typical void fan denial. I can't prove it can I? I don't have Arums phone bills but he did say it somwhere. I believe it may have been on youtube. He tried to call void 3 times. The first time there was no answer and the second and third times, void just coughed and then gave the phone to Ellerbe. Blatant, blatant duck. Bob Arum has been totally professional and straight forward. Void just calls people out on twitter and then goes void.

    At first I was 50/50 as to whether this was a serious thread,then about 70/30 in favour of serious.But you sticking to SRR in the 70's is just too much.My sides couldn't hurt this much if I had 15 rounds with Mike McCallum.
    Brilliant reply post.I salute your comedic excellence.The last paragraph is marvellous.
    I know Robinson fought on too long,but this is too much.:rofl:rofl

    i dont know why your bringing up leonard probably the best welterweight ever behind robinson, far too big and skillful for lil pac, and hagler one of the best middleweights of all time, a weight pac couldnt even reach even if he quit boxing training and just ate mcdonalds all day. but he does rate highly in p4p rankings not GOAT.
