    Clottey and Mosley were BOTH coming off LOSSES when Pacquiao fought them. Happy to give you a clue, *******...

    Here is the only FACT that matters, *******. Two of the three judges scoring the fight saw Bradley win seven rounds - and Pacquiao was the house fighter.

    Bradley SD12

    Deal with it, *******...

    Pacquiao's great achievements at lower weights solidified his legacy. His 147 run was a joke hypefest without substance.

    When he moved up the rest of the top 5 was Mosley, Cotto, Marg, Clottey. He fought them back to back in 18 months. Add in p4p Bradley and JMM, it's a pretty good run even if it was his 1st division.

    It's embarrassing that he ducked Mosley then fought him 2 years later

    Why is it embarrassing? It only took him 18 months to fight the guy he ducked (while moving up), compare the other guy :lol:

    But again, a year earlier it was unthinkable Pac would be facing Cotto or Mosley. What do you suppose the odds on Pac Cotto would have been 12 months prior to Pac Cotto?

    We wont see another Featheweight like Marquez and Pacquiao that can move up in weight and still be competitive. Many have tried and many have failed.Mayweather has done it.But he's got the height and build for it.

    The fact still remains, nobody not that i know of has done it. Except Duran, Marquez and Pacquiao.Jokes aside; Margarito, Cotto, hatton and Clottey is solid resume but not great evidently.

    The coy act is cute, aw shucks. Every time I mention the 2x Super Vacation champ in this thread it gets you all worked up.

    you're bringing up Floyd again? :lol: it's a thread about Pacquiao so try and stay on topic

    Mosley was ducked by Pac in 09 then Pac waited for Shane's 40th Birthday to fight him.

    Pac waited until Marquez' 38th birthday to drag him to welterweight and Marquez embarassed him twice.

    His run at ww is nothing special.
