    My only question, did henry fought all the elite competition in his time on each division? Coz if he did not then we have the same scenario in pac. 147 , hoya ain't the best there but he is still an accomplishment, i'm talking accomplishments on each weight class facing an elite. Hoya is an elite though not the best in 147. at this time..
    But pac finished off an elite in
    sasakul, ledwaba, mab, jmm on each division. Though david is a decent one on 135..
    Hoya was back at 20011 the best in ww right?
    Facing and invading, the main word here is "invading" a teritory or a former territory of other elites is thepot of gold of my point..
    Yep he is and when he faces both hatton and margo come next year getting their belts, he is.
    And i am confident as early as now, he will be..

    Gonna have to agree with him mate, Margo is a whole different story. Hatton? Yes. Mayweather? Yes. Cotto? Perhaps. Margo? Not a good idea IMO...

    there is a difference between shot and somebody made you shot :good
    a part timer fighter who went sd with money may and won his last fight is not shot. past prime yes but not shot. too much crybabies in here.

    I'm not sure if shot is the right word, because he could possibly still offer something at 154. But he really looked terrible. Primarily because he was made to look bad, but in reality he was throwing nothing, and putting nothing behind his shots. It was borderline embarrassing.

    If we can't agree w/ a new armstrong tag, let's just say Pac is greatest fighter in this era. :good

    If he's not now, he will be by the time he retires.

    He fought Mayweather 17 months ago, and his last fight against Forbes which was ****. Fighters don't get shot gradually anyway, so that's a nonesense of an argument.

    He beat Forbes UD wide. Berto who fought Forbes didnt look anymore impressive either. Forbes is a slick fighter, he would make anyone look bad. Think Spinks.
