    What made his career go up was the victory against Barrera (1st).

    but the victory that started his run to greatness was DLH.

    I should have say, on DLH victory. Defeating a known fighter on this sport is great achievement of Pac, but to think that Oscar is already not in his prime prior to their encounter, I say this win is expected for a young fighter over a fading and aging fighter.

    His victory over Barrera made a huge introduction of Pacquiao's great credibility to beat elite fighters in this sport.

    I went with Hatton. Long reigning 140lbs champion, coming off the back of a dominating win over Malignaggi, close to prime and undefeated at LWW - Pac having never fought there, and the nature of the win, make it Pac's best, IMO.

    I can see why people would be more excited over the De La Hoya win..it intially seemed a farcical fight and its fresh in everyone's mind.

    But I think when its all over and we have time to reflect...Manny stepping up to dominate a truly elite fighter in Barrera will go down as his crowning achievement.

    Unless he beats Mayweather.

    Barrera by a mile for me , I'm a huge MAB fan but Pacquiao ran right through a ( maybe not absolute peak ) very very good version of Barrera. Pacquiao made me a fan right then and there.

    doesn't mean hatton is the least pac win, it is a huge one actually, it's just that the others are more greater imo..

    it was shocking because it ended so quick, but if hatton was more focus and stick to their shitty gameplan, i think it would take at least a few couple of rounds more..
