    Hardly worth the time.

    Hernandez (#1 SFW), Corrales (#1 SFW), Castillo x2 (#1 LW ), Gatti (#1 JWW), Judah (#2 WW), Baldomir (#1 WW), Mosley (#2 WW), Ortiz (#2 WW), Cotto (#1 LMW).

    That's a habit.

    And the nerve to bring up HOFer Marquez, a guy Pac cant deal with for jack**** and who Floyd shut out. That argument died forever in November. And Money's +3 on Hoya (off a TKO6 of Mayorga, 154 lbs, 10oz gloves), Hatton (undefeated) and Mosley (#3 P4P).

    :rofl

    You must be dreaming, Starting with Hatton,every fighter Pac fought except Cotto ( who had an easy win over Foreman but was comming off that brutal beating by cheating ass Margarito) was comming off a loss,Clotty:-(,Margarito:-(, Mosley:-( and JMM whom I as well as the majority of boxing people felt he lost to. His record is not steller by any means. On the other hand, since Hatton, Mayweather has fought fighters comming off great wins and picked up a belt on the way.( except JMM whom we all know is a winner ):bbb

    Pacquiao was the #1, and Marquez beat him. That's all the argument you need. A previous loss doesn't nullify a win dethroning the king, nor does it serve as a placeholder for the previous victor. Again, it's not like Frazier gets credit for Ali's win over Foreman.

    Marquez should be number 1 for beating Pac, and Floyd should be over him for shutting him out and he'd do the same exact thing in a rematch

    I see Pacquiao is still #1 in The Ring Magazine's website.

    This should have happened a long time ago, and Floyd never lost a fight to lose his number 1 P4P ranking, so therefore if he can lose it without losing so can pac.

    I scored 76 aged 9, so to be twice as smart as a nine year old version of me you would need an IQ of 152, I doubt the guy you were trying to offend is below the intelligence of a 9 year old, and I doubt your IQ is higher than mine now, and mine is lower than 152.

    the hatton who Pacquiao fought after, the JMM who schooled Pac after, the Oscar that Pacquiao fought way after and at a lower weight class, the Mosley who Pacquioa couldn't look good against?

    No he isn't...lb 4 lb when referenced by media and fans alike, is referencing the ring rankings.

    Pacquiao looked horrible against a blown up LW in Marquez and the #5 in the world guy.

    Glad to see The Ring making the proper changes...can't look that pathetic against a blown up LW and expect to stay on top.

    The Pejevan guy is an idiot. He praises Manny for everything and does not give credit where credit is due. He has Pac's dick in his ear and eye and will do anything the almighty great one says.
