    No, because beating Pacquiao just does not carry that much weight at this point, after all Pacquiao has been beaten several times so beating him does not give you TBE status. It's merely a good scalp to have on his resume, but if he does beat Pacquiao he will be considered the best of his generation no doubt.

    Lol no.
    At 147 his best wins are Guerrero and Maidana
    At 140 his best win is Hatton (who just went life and death with a bum )
    At 152 Canelo was coming off a gift to C+ level Trout :deal

    Shot cotto, shot/old Delohoya sorry I'm just not impressed.

    Psssh..as for him fighting at smaller weights I had him losing against B- level Castillo the first time around

    he will be borderline HOF in my book if he dominates PAC.

    Floyd never fought any top fighter in their primes. His opponents were always shot. People will always remember this. You an't deny the facts.

    We agree to disagree but I'm rarely wrong :hey



    Bradley: I've never felt power like Matthysse and that's wearing 22oz gloves




    Psssh.. I find that interesting because bradley has fought both Ruslan and Marquez and tasted there power



    If PAC COULDNT HANDLE Marquez power he anit gonna handle matthysse's :deal

    yes but he was destroyed too, by fighters not near his skill level.
    if he was only rated for his LHW reign he wouldn't sniff the HOF
