    Pacquiao at 122 pounds or Hopkins at 160 pounds? I find that Pacquiao's reign at 122 is overlooked. But it's really the only opportunity he had for a title reign because he moved too quickly through the divisions and was too small to be a dominant Welter.

    He had 10 titles fights. Knocked out 9 of his opponents. And was given a medical 6 round draw against Sanchez even though should have been way up on cards.

    Hopkins also had a decent reign. He had that KO against Trinidad. And the KO against Johnson and UD against Joppy. The big problem is he didn't fight Toney and the only reason he became the man at 160 is because Jones (the better fighter) vacated the division.
