    I dunno, Froch is iron chinned and Naz gets lazy. Froch could box when he had to like in the Abraham fight or the Groves fight.

    There were so many things that affected Barrera in the first fight like the fire in big bear, the plate in his head controversy he wasn't mentally prepared for the cyclone that was Pacquaio at that time which is why Barrera did better against Pac (a better pac) in the rematch.. But a lot of people point to De La Hoya and Hatton everytime a debate comes up between him and Floyd.

    It's always" Pac did better against Oscar and Hatton then Floyd did" not even mentioning Floyd fought and beat those guys first. He fought De LA Hoya in his weight class.. He didn't drain Cotto 2 more pounds, he fought him at 154.. But Floyd and Manny are the 2 best p4p fighters in the last 25 years imo, and Floyd deserves the no.1 ranking over pacquaio.

    What atg were prime and in the same weight class as pbf? That's not his fault. BTW all Pac has is Eric Morales and MAB two guys pbf would have tooled so that doesn't mean much to me.

    You can add JMM and Cotto to the list of ATG's Pacman has beaten.

    Barrera was all over the place in the first fight mentally... He gets credit, but those factors have to be considered.

    I'm certain Hernandez is in the World Boxing Hall of Fame. He should be in the IBHOF, he only lost to Oscar and Mayweather.

    If thats the case every fight can be written of if you go by that logic

    Never ever seen anyone with any sense not giving Pac major credit for his win over p4p fighter in bareera
