    for what..you have already shown that you dont care for the rest of the fights because yo only see 4 fights he had that were great i guess or made him great....you listed 7 for Pac and while doing so you included Oscar for him considering the circumstances but purposely left Oscar off Floyds when Floyd had the fresher youger version at his best weight....so no..to list the fights would only encourage blind hate from you to try and break all of the wins down in which im sure you would but then i would do the same with Pac and then it would be pointless so if you feel he only has 4....its your opinion...have at it.

    im just tired of going back and forth with some of you...but i dont understand how fans of boxing honestly support the two list you put up....Pac has better wins than Oscar anyway!

    I am sure a natural welterweight JMM would have hit a lot harder than a lightweight JMM we saw that night.

    That is absurd you are taking a guy later in his career and bringing him to a new weight class he has never been to, and face someone who could fight at 154 with ease. Floyd was so much more comfortable at the weight and compared to the distance JMM mastered below 134 lbs,
    stepping up to 145 gave him little chance.

    Jumping up 10 pounds for the first time and fighting above 140 makes JMM an entirely different fighter.

    That fight was just done to fool the folks who were already victim to the marketing and self promotion of Floyd to make them believe it justified that Floyd could beat a guy that beat Manny. once again it was pointless activity because there is no way to adjust the disadvantage JMM had by fighting 10lbs heavier than any of the fights with Manny making it irrelevant. Just another case of the outcome being determined by the actual contract itself not the fight.

    Great list on Floyd's part but wsup with Solis? :rofl

    That's like saying Michael Grant was one of Lewis' greatest win.

    I just like when fighters fight undefeated not so well known fighters because the fights are usually exciting which it was. I also wanted to sneak Phillip N'dou on floyds list as well but he lost early in his career before going on a streak and knocking a lot of people out.

    That Overall list is a ****ing Joke. You cant be real. Sorry Rip but if your going count 3 Pac fights in the top 10 that is a Joke to me.

    You havnt taken any real odds or who the favorite was going into the fight.

    Floyd was the favorite 100% of those fights you named. He was supposed to win.

    Pac was a underdog against
    Barrera 1
    Morales 2
    Dela Hoya

    He was a clear underdog in all 3. Even by the best boxing experts out there. Yet you have only 1 of those fights in the top 10.

    Common man stop with the hate.

    Speaking of Solis, that fight always leaves a bad taste in my mouth. There was supposed to be an all asian showdown between pac and In Jin Chi in Macau.. The fight was all set to go until pac and his team backed out at the last minute to fight an unknown Solis.

    FMJ:

    1. Jose Luis Castillo [2] (redemption for FMJ, after controversial scoring in the first match)
    2. Oscar de la Hoya - (Part-time, past master, though good SD for FMJ at 154)
    3. Genaro Hernandez (Ageing but respected Champ - beaten similarly by OdlH, 3 Years earlier)
    4. Jesus Chavez (Live and undefeated contender, worn down by FMJ)
    5. Diego Corrales - (KO artist but a famine victim with a short-range, two-punch armoury)

    Pacquiao:

    1. Juan Manuel Marquez [2] - (the top-level P4P Great found Pacquiao to be his true bogeyman)
    2. Miguel Angel Cotto - (the 147 powerhouse was dominated by Pacquiao)
    3. Marco Antonio Barrera [1] - (another P4P Great beaten up over 11 rounds)
    4. Erik Morales [2] - (another P4P Great battered and stopped for the first time in his career)
    5. Ricky Hatton - (the 140 division's number 1 - retired by early and devastating KO)

    Mayweather has a better Resume than Pacquiao. He has fought better oppoents and more of them.
    Sorry if you find this to be a joke. What I find to be a joke is Pacquiao being fighter of the decade.
    Your right . I should have switched 9 & 10 on the overall list.
    Barrera 1. was an outstanding win for Pacquiao
    Moralas was damaged goods when they fought the second time.
    A lot of people including myself were fooled into thinking that De La Hoya could still compete at 147. If the 24/7 for the fight is still on youtube you can seee in De La Hoya's face how weight drained he was.
