    They will be not top 10 like some are saying, more like top 20-25 which is still damn good when you think of the 1,000's of fighters who came before them.

    I'm even more sure that you'll say the name Mayweather in the same breath as the word duck.

    List your top 10 and stack their achievements next to manny's and see who's is more impressive.if anyone can pick 10 fighters who have achieved more I'd be surprised

    top 20. great heart. talent equal to anybody. greatest phillipino fighter (sorry, pancho villa, but true). competition second to none. who knows- maybe the best is yet to come (illiterate floyd should have fought him in '09.. dummy)

    Why are people ranking his win over Margo highly? Margo was basically suspended for a year and his comeback fight was against a guy that was there to lose. Margo was picked basically as his style is tailor made for Pac's style

    Pac is a good fighter no doubt. But to rank his wins highly after his fight with Oscar De La Hoya is too much. Resume wise, his wins were better in the lower weights as they meant much more.

    And how can you say that Floyd's whole career was based on cherry picking? He too was put against fighters he was SUPPOSED TO lose against but he beat them early in his career

    The fact he's about 6" taller and over a stone heavier,he was walking through 99% of the ww division and smashing everyone,floyd blatantly avoided him then a midget in comparison had the balls to fight him and knock him all round the ring for 12 rounds,to be fair I was impressed
