    Athletes are superstitious. 99% of MLB pitchers won't step on the first base line when they're going back to the dug out. Many literally jump over it. And Pac is on video saying that years before a hypothetical match with Floyd was ever even mentioned.

    You are aware that Hatton's best weight was super lightweight?

    Its not ridiculous when you look at his best win arguably is MAB who was seen as a guy on his way down when he beat him. Pac is getting ridiculously overrated very beatable fighter with some bad losses and questionable decisions that people love to overlook because they like him.

    You are aware that he moved up, got knocked out by a featherfirst at welterweight and then drained himself back down right?

    Are you also aware that while he was at 140 he was walking into the ring at 160 right?

    I don't rank a guy who never beat an elite fighter in their prime over a flyweight who destroyed Cotto.

    He had a list of people who rank Pac higher than Floyd, I'm interested in why someone would care enough to compile such a list.

    As for your obsession with Floyd, that's a bit weird, do you have have any more names for him?

    I saw the list you made and wondered why you bothered making it.

    Hatton beat Malignaggi at 140lbs just before fighting Pac. In a fight where he actually looked very good.

    There is little evidence that Hatton would have been any better at 147lbs. He didn't look very convincing at that weight against Collazo in 2006.

    It's because pbf beat pac easily won fighter of the decade and retired undefeated. By getting some people to say pac is greater makes himself feel good. Even though im sure you could find a list of even more boxing people who say pbf is.

    Historical rankings of fighters, and not just Pac/Floyd, are popular and unending discussions. Given that Pac/Floyd are the top 2 fighters of this generation, they will always be discussed from a legacy standpoint.

    He was also on video saying that AFTER the 2nd Morales fight, this was never an issue until he got on the sauce, aka post-Morales II.

    Malignaggi? Come on man... it's not that he would have been better at 147 it's that he ruined himself by going up and then draining back down.

    How many fighters have we seen move down after getting knocked out at a higher weight and not be effected hugely?
