    See above. He's fighitng to feed his family. Probably doesnt train as hard and takes fights on short notice. On his best day he gives most fighters at 140 hell.

    RJJ was greater and better than Mayweather, no doubt.

    but Pac is greater and better than Roy, even prime for prime.

    although all 3 are great.

    Prime for Prime, Pacquiao is not better than RJJ.

    We're talking a guy who beat ATG's with 1 hand.

    No, he doesnt. At his best he does, but he's shot.

    Pacquiao is not better than Jones.

    Roy Jones never was close to losing a fight in his prime. The only fight that was close on the cards in his fight, he was maybe a round from blasting that fighter out.


    Pacquiao has lost 3 times. Atleast once to a shot fighter. And 2 extremely close calls to another fighter, while good, isnt close to top 50 all-time.

    Roy beat better fighters in Hopkins and Toney, and did it without once appearing vulnerable.


    Roy Jones is far and away better then Pacquiao.

    Floyd and Cotto did better against a prime Corley than Alexander and Maidana did against an old one.

    Sounds like when Pac was just a left handed fighter and beat the crap out of a prime MAB.

    But seriously, I never bought into that "Pac was a 1 handed fighter" crap anyways.

    and RJJ was using both hands against Hopkins.

    At his best as I said. He's not shot. He's just in journeyman mode where he fights mainly to survive.

    If I was an up and coming prospect and wanted to look good, I'd avoid Corley at all costs.

    Yeah, which was good, but beating MAB as a 1 handed fighter is not the same as beating bernard hopkins with a hurt hand.

    So? Your point? Mayweather and Cotto are both much better than Alexander and Maidana.
