    Not at all, but fighting a champ for his title at a catchweight isn't anything to brag about and PAC did it twice

    So are you disputing the fact that PAC only fought once at ww when Floyd was retired?

    The Mosley that lost to Cotto? The Cotto that got beat by margarito? The Margarito that got beat by Mosley? The Paul Williams that beat Margarito? The Quintana who beat Paul Williams?

    There was no clear winner bro. Shane Mosley did good work on Margarito, but he didn't avenge his loss to Cotto. Also, even though Pac didn't knock Marg out (though I think he could have between rounds 10-12) his win was more impressive.
    Mosley had to hold Margarito, frustrate him, tire him out, and then punch him. Margarito walked towards Pac, and Pac didn't hold/ run... He punched him in the face 5 times, and Marg stopped. He was willing to stand up to the much bigger man in a dog fight if needed.

    Also who really cares if it was while Mayweather was retired, semi-retired, etc?
    Pac moved up a ton of weight classes and dominated these big men. that's really what was so impressive. If Floyd would have beat them while some of them were undefeated, or even now (hell people make a big deal at Floyd beating Ortiz.. Who lost to Maidana and drew with peterson) you and a lot of people would make a huge deal about it. Meanwhile Floyd was and is bigger than Pac, and wouldn't have knocked them out, or bullied them.

    Morales, Barrera, and Marquez at the lower weights is enough for Pac to become an ATG. His moving up in weight is icing on the cake. To bad Mayweather, who I will admit is an ATG fighter, would have fought some of those guys and cemented his legacy more.
    You'd be able to talk a lot more crap
