How are Pac's wins over Morales 2,3 and MAB 2 rated so high?

Quit tying to discredit Pacs acomplishments that's all u do....name 2 fighters better that MAB and Morales that mayweather beat

 

That's totally right. Sometimes a great fighter can make another great fighter look bad. People tend to immediately say "shot" when a specific fighter they admire falls and falls hard in easy fashion against another fighter. It's not always because they're "shot", their opponent's ability and style should be considered.

Whitaker made Chavez look terrible and beat him 10 rounds to 2, doest that mean Chavez is "shot" or is a terrible fighter?, don't think so. Certain styles can make ANY figher look bad.

 

MAB 2 was the same MAB that KD and gave JMM hell.

EM 2 - Erik beat pac the last time and he avenge that by TKO (first time)

EM 3 - Pac beat the **** out and made erik quit (first time)

 

That's your personal opinion then and I respect that. Can't add more to change your mind other than Morales looked actually ver good and was giving Pac trouble early and nearly knocked him down with a single clean shot. A past prime fighter can't do that to someone in Pac's class. It's like saying "If Morales wasn't beyond shot Pac would be iced quickly and easily".

 

Of course PAC can't fight every great fighter in their "Physical Primes". That's just impossible. But fighting a fighter who is in their Physical Prime doesn't necessiarly mean you are facing the best version of that fighter.

EM, MAB and JMM when PAC first faced them were just past their Physical primes, but in terms of their overall worth at the time, PAC faced the very best versions of the 3 mexican greats.

 

If they weren't great at the time, then that takes away from the win...how do you think that Pac would have faired against these twon when they were great?

 

I don't give out the shot excuse as quickly as most but I gotta say Morales showed he was no longer the same fighter in the Rahem fight. Then he went back down in weight and fought Pac a second time he still made it competitive and Pac has to be given credit he became a more complete fighter in that one and even a bit past it Morales is a good win but I dont give it knocking out Morales in his prime credit he didnt do that. ..Also past prime fighters can pull of those performances and be competitive on occasion don't forget Ali vs Frazier III.

 

fact is, a semi-shot morales still had enough in the tank to beat a young, fresh in his prime pacquiao. morales had already had too many wars including a very exhausting trilogy with barrera. for the morales/pacquiao II fight, morales was coming off a loss to raheem at 135 and had to kill himself to make the 130 lb. limit. the third morales fight was more evidence that morales was done a long time ago. so actually, pacquiao beat up on a very old (ring wise) fighter who had had his best days behind him. looks great on paper (name wise) but really isn't very impressive.
