    He's edging into the top 50 at the moment.























    BTW asero.......you are a colossal scrotum for posting that poll, and you would have no problem making my "top 3 all-time deluded ****wits" list :good

    Sorry but Pac is not top 35 c'mon. I rate Pac at about 45-50, but he may in fact wind up ther eventually.

    Thinking about it the individual legacies of Pacquiao, Barrera, Marquez, and Morales, are going to be dependant on how history treats the legacies of the other 3 members of this foursome.

    Somewhat similar to how the foursome of Hagler, Hearns, Duran, and Leonard (I am only comparing the situations, not the stature of the fighters in boxing history). In that their careers crossed over so much, that even though they had many other good-great opponents, that the fights with the other members of the group is what mainly defined them.

    I pick option D.

    But i would put Pac in top 20 - 30, not higher, and probably closer to 30 than 20...
