No he is not!! He won world titles in 8 weight divisions. only a remarkable fighter could achieve such a feat He is however past his prime and declining and so people look at him vs marquez/mosley and see an average performance and seem to forget about the amazing performances against Morales/marquez/Barerra/Hatton/ODLH/Ledwaba/Cotto for me the best fight pac had was vs Diaz not for the opposition faced but for the total destruction. breaking down and KO. How many other fighters in that magical featherweight era could have faced Barrera x 2 marquez x 2 and morlaes x 3 and only lose once (perhaps 2 including the marquez fight). Pac is not over rated, simply not as good as he once was rate a guy over his entire career and not when he is getting on a bit and still expected to blow everyone away
Well, let's just say he is probably a top 40 ATG. Anyone who says higher is overrating him, anyone who says lower is underrating. Something like that.
there should be an option in the poll for 'only by *******s'. It's safe to say the guy is a great fighter and most of us would say that based on his achievements. The light in which he is cast by his avid fanbase and Pinoys is ******ed at times
The problem is, there is an equivalent number of *****s that try to diminish all that he ahs achieved.
*****s (ESB term) and other boxer's fans.. :deal And when you try to defend him, they accused you as a *******.. atsch Can't we be all boxing fans? :huh
Hih popularity blew up since people started thinking he can beat floyd ( de la hoya, hatton cotto fights)
