    How does Manny`s performance in this bout compare to other winning title challenges at 154 through the years?

    A flyweight champ beating down one of the biggest Welterweight champs ever. Basically something that is impossible.

    It was a great win. Antonio's pressure was destroying full WW but PAC was able to neutralize it with some scary moments in between.

    Again, I'll have to say that it was completely disgraceful to give a proven cheating scumbag like Hands of Plaster a payday. Arum took the shameless route, which is nothing new for him or other promoters, simply to further milk the hype job he created. It was still satisfying to see Pacquiao ruin his career, so it paid off regardless.

    Destroying full WWs?, like who?. This fraud's entire career is questionable after he was caught loading up. How many stoppages has he scored after he was caught?.

    Margarito was not one of the best welters ever. Wow. Of all the elite welters Margarito would not crack top 25.

    Decent win for Pac but Mosley exposed him and Cotto taking him apart 12 months later means that without the plaster Mr. Tony could beat his chest all he liked - he simply couldn't hang at the highest level without cheating.

    I think Mayweather beating Oscar at the full 154 with Oscar's stipulations is a far better win than a decent win against a guy who did nothing of note after 'the incident'. It needs to be noted that 12 months later, Mr. Tony took a 4 year holiday after being humiliated by Cotto and came back to do precisely nothing.
