    This is as relevant as Sam Peter challenging Wladimir after a four-fight winning streak. I'm sure Cotto for instance could've been 4-0 with four kayos given the exact same quality of opposition.

    Lets put it this way. Cotto, margo, floyd, mosley, clottey. They are considered as the top welterweights. Cotto, margo, clottey, mosley lost to each other. that is because they have the balls to fight each other. Manny on the other hand is willing to fight any of the top Welterweights out there despite being a smaller guy.

    This.

    You'll also find most of Mayweather's last opponents had recent losses (Mosley, Marquez, DLH, Judah, Sharmba).

    Shane Mosley only had a 2 fight winning streak when Floyd fought him

    Juan Manuel Marquez only had a 2 fight winning streak when Floyd fought him.

    Oscar only had a 1 fight winning streak when Floyd fought him.

    Zab Judah was coming off a loss when Floyd fought him.

    Sharmba Mitchell had a 1 fight winning streak when Floyd fought him.

    Cotto was undefeated when Margo fought him and see what happened?


    Why all these double-standards when it comes to Pac?

    You forgot Judah and his imposing 0 fight win streak going into the Mayweather fight. He knocked Mayweather down too

    Because everyone wants to make out Pac as having the better resume, lets add

    Morales coming off a loss each time Pacquaio fought him, Barrera coming off a loss in their rematch, Larios coming off a loss

    All are good wins but Pacquaio has a habit of getting opponents at the right time

    wrong. Coming off a loss is usually when an opponent is most underrated. Unlike what some people think, a fighter coming off a loss does not automatically mean he all of a sudden is **** compared to what he used to be. Alot of fighters learn from their losses and become better as a result.
