    Void believes that Pac is the best, therefore, Void has been running from Pac for years.....................

    I enjoy watching Pac fight. Void is very boring. Void refuses to fight Pac, which is the fight fans want to see, the biggest PPV fight in history, but Void's fear of Pac is too great............

    It will eventually be done at some point. Pac didn't do anything too much more dramatically different when it comes to division successes as Oscar, Hearns, Floyd, Armstrong, Leonard, Duran, etc. to the point that I think it will never be done ever again.

    If counting Pacquiao's titles as being in 8 divisions then that means counting catchweights (which are absolutely reasonable; I just say this because some people trash them), as well as counting either The Ring and/or the IBO titles (as the Hatton fight at JWW was for both, but neither are the major sanctioning bodies that generally are recognized for these accomplishments; for the record I would count true lineal titles and not the IBO).

    For comparison among far lesser viewed contemporaries:
    -Nonito Donaire foolishly bypassed a 115 pound title attempt but should he beat Vetyeka for the 126 pound WBA title, he will have won titles in four divisions (once again, could/should have gotten one at 115 and that would be 5).
    -Abner Mares is a three division world champ.
    -Kazuto Ioka just turned 25 years old and he will be fighting for the IBF 112 title against Ruenroeng on May 7th. If successful, the young man will be a champion of 3 divisions. He would have to win titles at every stop until 130 pounds to match Pacquiao's mark. While that seems unlikely, eventually there will be a man with the talent, promotion, and body to be able to do it.

    :deal

    The Pacquiao-Bradley II is @ 147. So Pacquiao haters can still claim he is still a 7 division champion.

    With boxers becoming more and more of prima donas and not seeking out challenges I doubt it would be broken anytime soon.


    I never really counted the 8th division though.. Against a non ranker and a belt made just for that title? You earn a title by fighting champions.

    Ok.. I respect your opinion.. I just don't understand why people complain about the Marquez and Canelo fight.. Floyd is said to be 'wrong' in both.. The Marquez fight for making him come up in weight and the Canelo fight for 'draining' him.. Floyd had to do a Marquez and go up in weight to fight Canelo but that's ok, and he was supposed to go down or 'drain himself' to fight Marquez after 18 months of not fighting that's ok too.. He is undefeated but still lose in just about every fight...

    I guess Marquez should have fought Rios instead of Pac, Bradley and Mayweather:nut

    And now he's fighting the guy that beat Rios before Pac did:patsch

    So Pacquiao deserves to be 3rd because he was "about to stop Marquez anyway" :lol:

    Absolute nonsense

    He should not be higher than Marquez.

    Marquez KTFO6 Pacquiao. Had two knockdowns.
    Marquez lost a close decision to Bradley which some felt JMM won.

    Pac beat Bradley by wide Margin
    Pac got KTFO6 by Marquez

    How then is Pac higher than Marquez?
