    OK,

    Maybe it would take more than 3 to make him GOAT.

    What about this though.........

    Next fight - he beats the winner of Williams v Martinez
    THen takes on the champ at 140
    Then ends his career knocking out FLoyd.

    Is that enough to make GOAT?

    Probably not. But surely that would be at least top 5 ATG.

    What else would he need to do to be regarded as the GOAT?

    Thanks for the input.

    Me personally i don't see that happening. He could get in the early teens possibley to 10. But the GOAT, sorry but i don't think so.

    If he did all that without catchweights, and with drug testing, he's in with a shout for any objective, sane persons top three of all time...

    Sugar Ray Robinson will always be the GOAT

    With Pacquiao you have to understand, people took serious notice of him when he battled Barrera, Morales and Marquez and came out as a great fighter no doubt.

    After that, he fought a weight drained Oscar at 147 who looked shot from the opening bell

    Then it was Hatton who had already been beaten by Mayweather, got rocked by Lazcano in the 10th, and fought a powder puff puncher in Malignaggi. By then the binge eating and drinking had caught up with him.

    He then beat Cotto, who has never looked the same after being beaten by Margarito

    Clottey was next, a fight no one cared about as Clottley is a B level fighter, Clottey just covered up all night.

    This is not enought for him to be considered the GOAT. He is now fighting Margarito at a catch weight, and he was humiliated by Mosley.

    The quality of opposition, the catch weights, the way the fighters he faces are all damaged goods, this isn't good enough to be considered the GOAT

    And with the drug use allegations hanging over his head, people will always question "How can he keep going up and destroying bigger fighters?" Its incredible and I've never known a fighter who is able to move up with so much power and speed.

    Sugar Ray Robinson

    173 Fights
    108 wins
    19 losses
    6 draws
    2 no contests

    85-0 as an amateur
    200+ pro bouts in 26 years
    Someone once said there was a comparison between Sugar Ray Leonard and Sugar Ray Robinson. Believe me, there's no comparison. Sugar Ray Robinson was the greatest.
    —Sugar Ray Leonard
    Without a doubt the greatest pound for pound fighter that ever lived.
    —Jake LaMotta
    The king, the master, my idol.
    —Muhammad Ali

    Good point (s).

    So he can never be the GOAT is the consensus.

    How high could he get?

    Nobody can become the goat, ray robinsons spot is sealed, and also boxing changed alot since then with less fights.
    How about this who do you consider the best fighter form 80 on, thats the time since boxing became like how we know it now.
    So Duran,Leonard,Whitaker who? then ask yoursellf what does pac needs to do before you can put him above those guys? in my opinion beat floyd,williams and marquez.
