    8 div champ
    former flyweight who went up to 154
    first and only 4 weight lineal champion
    beat ATGs in their primes
    etc etc etc

    He’s not adding anything to the legacy though by carrying on. Could have stop a few years back.

    Which ATG's did he legitimately beat in their prime without draining them?

    No. Too much inconsistency and smoke and mirrors. Best matchmaking, sure. But merit, nope.

    I don’t think Manny legitimately beat Marquez in any of those fights. Cotto
    And Hatton are not ATG, HOFers yes but not ATGs.

    He has got one of the best resumes for sure he got in there with a lot of top names and even though I don’t think he beat Marquez credit to Pac for giving him rematch after rematch.

    Barerra is a modern ATG, that’s an excellent name to have, nothing bad to say about that at all.

    Without draining them. That takes Cotto out the equation

    Prime. That takes Morales and Hatton out the equation

    Legitimately. That takes Marquez out the equation

    That leaves you with just Barrera

    I'll throw in Bradley too
