    Mannys got some very good victories over lesser known fighters in the lower weights. A bit like Floyd in that sense, the earlier parts of their careers are both underrated. That being said, Barrera I and Cotto must surely be 1 and 2, the second Marquez fight (which I gave to Manny, just) might be third

    Manny best win was making the world believe that it was Mayweathers fault they never fought. He keeps his credit and never has to face the man that would have disgraced him and shown that he is just a brawler and could never compete with a true artist like Mayweather.

    a wicked shot no doubt but look at the way morales is moving ? looks nothing like the morales of the first fight. for a fighter to improve as much as pacquiaos rematch win suggests is not unheard of especially for an atg like pacquiao but against a fellow atg like morales who we know for a fact had huge issues making weight? i dno man...

    In hindsight?

    Barrera 1
    Morales 2
    Cotto
    Hatton
    Ledwaba


    ODLH should be there too if it wasn't for Dela Hoya's poor showing.

    That and also because Pac was intently digging Morales's body on this fight.
    Couple that with ring age and you will definitely see a slower Morales on the later rounds.

    Mosley was beyond shot for that fight. Cotto win was more impressive.

    Lol you see just how overrated Pacquiao is from the wins people are listing. His one good win is Barrera. Most people on the list were recently defeated and destroyed within their last two fights before facing Pac. What a sad top 5.
