    :lol: Alright....I just feel most are discrediting PAC's wins at the higher weights as if they were "givens'. PAC without a doubt has been testing himself and progressively taking on harder challenges moving up....aside from Diaz. He took on DLH, then Ricky now Cotto. That's impressive but many dont give him credit for seeking the toughest challenges out there. JMM does the same thing yet no one questions his path creating his legacy. Diaz, Casa, now Floyd. I think PAC and JMM have had the hardest shedules of any fighters.

    Just because Barrera was past it doesn't mean he still wasn't good. Pac beat MAB at a time when Barrera was showing signs of not being the fighter he used to be imo. PAc was a hungry fighter who was not going to be denied that night. Even Barrera said that Pac reminded himself of him when he was younger before the fight. The Barrera win for PAc is still a good win, just not great imo.

    This was a very ignorant response lol...and it took you long enough ~!@#$@#!~$ lol... Dapidran beat MAB one sidedly, lost to EM, and beat him two more times(neither was a war), and Dapidran had two wars with JMM. How many wars is that moron 3? Stop dick riding PAc. Be objective for once in your life. Pac's had 3 wars during his prime when other greats have had more than 3. Eat a dick! You clowns rank PAc around 20-30 all time, so check the top 80 fighters around that weight, and see how many wars they were in lol... Now go take you and your candy ass opinion and Ballchinian your ass out of here lol... Oh, and Morales would whoop Pac's ass in his prime 20-20 times lol...

    so pac began fighting when he was 16 and had wars with morales2 marquez2 and tough fights when he was younger. before he faced pac, barrera beat hamed, morales, tapia and kelley so how can anyone say he was not prime.:patsch

    Prime Morales is at 122-126, prime Pac is at 135-147.

    So how can it be?

    First of all Barrera had many tough fights before Pacquiao, something like Sanchez (Agapito),Jimenez, McKinney, Jones I & II, Morales I & II, & Hamed. I am not even incuding guys like Tapia and Kelly, because they themselves were semi-washed up when they faced Barrera. Pac was probably just entering his prime when he fought Barrera, and Barrera was on the downside. I am not saying that it doesn't go both ways, in fact I would go as far as to say that Manny (himself) is at or near the end of his prime right now.

    These two posts have answered the bell for me lol... We now have to believe Barrera was in his prime against Pac, and we also have to believe PAc is not in his prime anymore. These two reasons by these two posters did it for me lol... I'm all in, Uli, Barrera was prime against Pac, no doubt anout it lol...:yep
