    pac can really make a case of being the greatest southpaw of all time...

    with his attributes alone of determination, heart, foot speed, hand speed, quickness, stamina, decent chin and explosive power from BOTH hands...he is almost the prototypical complete fighter...

    and with a resume so stacked from 130 down and realizing he even went north from 135 up to 147...pac's resume shhitss on the resume of floyd and calzaghe combined.....

    Agreed. Also I don't understand why pac gets so much **** for his wars with Morales and Marquez. He does have wins losses and draws with them. He wasn't destroyed he was in every fight and they are ATGs.

    I remember watching Foreman, Barrera, Hearns, etc. All get totally annihilated in their primes. Nobody gives them **** about it.

    By all means breakdown his fights with Morales and Marquez. But they trash on him like go got destroyed by B level fighters.

    Pernell salty cuz he thought punching him with 1000 jabs meant more than power shots.

    Good on the judges for not giving the decision to such a sissy performance.
