    What better proof is there than this. Hearns won titles in 6 weight class, Leonard 5 and Duran 4.. Pac has now surpassed them.

    This does not prove that. Those guys would have beaten Cotto also. Although Duran only beat 3 HOF fighters, and only one of them was great in Leonard. And Ray easily beat him in the rematch and rubbermatch. Duran was 1-5 in fights with the 80's legends. So to say he was better than Duran as far as opposition and winning? Maybe. But as a whole, those guys were great legends.

    As far as resumes go and Pfp talk,I would agree he is on the same level. However Pac would not beat Hearns,Duran or Leonard at welter. Pac proved hes a helluva welter but he wouldnt beat those guys,Although I was impressed with Pacs chin tonight. Hearns would be to big,but I think Pac would give Leonard and Duran a helluva fight. But moving up to Middle is out of the question for him.

    Greater then Duran and certainly Hagler, yes. On a level with SRL and Hearns. He's a serious ATG.

    I think he WOULD beat Duran. In fact I think Duran is made for him.

    I could see Pac beating Duran for some reason. He looks too fast and Duran always had trouble with speed. I think he would maybe outspeed Duran and either make Duran do a no mas or win a lopsided decision. Pac is great!!!

    Duran is the greatest of the four, how did you come to that conclusion?

    Duran lost to all of the guys also including Benitez. And Duran was only 30 when Benitez beat him easily. That better than the 4 guys who beat him thing is sort of ridiculous. On what? His lightweight reign?

    There is more to greatness than winning titles in multiple weight classes.

    Fighters who dominate one weight class are often short-changed, but the true meaning of P4P does not mean you just jump from division to division.

    That Pac has accomplished what he has, however, is an absolute marvel in and of itself.

    It doesn't necessarily make him better than Hearns, Duran, Leonard, and Hagler, though.

    ... don't get carried away just yet man, beating Cotto and Hatton doesn't put you in the same class as the Fab 4, and I say this as a big Pac fan.

    ... you know what, I'm not even going to start. There's just too many things to talk about with this one...
