    You should imagine them vs. a flyweight... then you'll see how impressive Pac is.

    that’s not really the question though is it. It’s about pac against a large light middle/welter

    I think Pac took far more punishment in this fight than a lot of people realize.

    Anybody with a brain knows that wasn't Pacquiao impressive win. He beat a past prime fighter that was never the same thanks to Mosley and his loaded gloves no longer is there to help him. Pacquiao didn't beat the same version of margarito that use loaded gloves to destroy Cotto in the first fight.

    I was at that fight in Texas i saw Robert Garcia challenge freddies taping of pac demanded they be removed FREDDIE refused and they let him get away with it Where did Pac's sudden immense power come from that destroyed MARGARITO'S eye?? Now that was suspicious. I also saw PAC collapse in agony from his battered ribs and heard him say that he'd never been hit so hard before. Pac was in bed in the fetal position for a couple of days after the fight both guys were battered

    I didn't see it as a great win considering Rito wasn't worthy of a title shot @154 vacant or not. But I sure did enjoy watching Rito swell up. Not sure of the damage Pac sustained, but for sure Rito took a thrashing and for that, Thank you Manny.

    Was Mayweather climbing from 112?

    Pacquiao's career started at 16 years of age, obviously he wasn't going to end up at anywhere near that weight. Not quite the devastating riposte that you thought it would be.

    Great.

    Mayweather was at 130 until he was 25 years old. Guess which division Manny was fighting in when he turned 25?

    Yes, Manny is naturally a bit smaller than Mayweather but not so much so that it's a bigger achievement for him beating a post-cheating Margarito at a 150 catchweight compared with dethroning the P4P king at the full weight of 154.
