    Sasakul was the lineal champion at 112.

    Paulie Ayala and Jhonny Tapia had already moved to 126 by the time (June 2001) Pac was fighting Ledwaba. Larios and Vasquez were nowhere near the scene, they became 122 champions in May 2002 and March 2004 respectively. Larios and Vasquez couldn't be ranked higher than Ledwaba who was actually the top 122 at that time.

    Mosley and Cotto are arguably the best WW at present. Mayweather who has not fought a true welterweight for nearly three years can not be ranked higher than these two.

    Agree. But what was worse was these *******s kept on distorting facts and supplant the truth with their idiotic opinion.

    This one is full of hatred and it has little difference with your original post.

    You're acting like stupid because of your ignorance. Ledwaba was the best at 122 when Pac fought him. Ayala and Tapia had already moved to 126 at that time and Larios and Vasquez became champions 2-3 years later. David Diaz was #3 LW when he fought Pac, behind only after Juan Diaz and Casamayor but Casa had "lost" earlier to Santa Cruz who was dethroned by David Diaz. David is not a bad fight afterall. Campbell was a nobody at that time, his only claim to fame was his comical losses to Peden. You're calling *******s ridiculous but no one can be more ridiculous than you!

    Dude, In your opinion Barrera was already washed up when Pac fought him. Why don't you check his (MAB) records for your own appreciation. Barrera was on a 8 or 9 winning streak before Pac and won six straights after Pac against such fighters as Ayala, Morales, Fana, Peden and Morales. Such a washed up fighter MAB was, don't you think so?

    So whats your point do you think paulie ayala will beat PAC at 122lbs? :lol:
    for God sake although PAC is limited in terms of skill at that div he had so much power which can turn the fight in single punch. also team larios was not interested to fight pac. belive me PAC is monster in terms of strenght at 122lbs.

    the thought of pac fighting cotto as recently as 18 months ago were met by comments of MURDER murder. :lol::rofl

    I think the fight with Cotto is impressive. Cotto is bigger and good fighter. If Pac beats Cotto I will be very impressed.
