    The Wright/Tito one is a good choice.

    I thought of JC/Kessler but realised it would likely turn to a Calzaghe hate thread by everyone claiming Kessler isnt `elite`

    :good

    Very good fight but it wasnt Pac`s best performance tho.
    If JMM had gotten the verdict Id have put that fight for him, same as Morales over MAB in fight 2 but they never got it so I went with their best wins - as in the ones they recieved credit for.

    :thumbsup

    all those are in their prime or post-prime expect pacquiao delivered a great performance against barrera despite being in the pre-prime stage of his career
