    Dude, what bearing does this fact have to the discussion? Pac was either the #1 or #2 (depending on who you were asking at that time) WW in the world and got beaten.

    Which I acknowledged in my first post, and a few others. That's the 1 good win above 135, a fantastic win of course (these don't rub off on the next guy). Second best the UD over Fedchenko? That's not a good win, and makes for a shallow resume above 135, especially since the good win was over a guy you fought at 126 and 130 before, a midget welter and a very familiar opponent. In other words, no decent wins over natural welters or jr welters.

    Anyway, it was a 50/50 fight at the bookies, and only cause one guy seemed damaged from his previous fight, other scored his greatest win one fight prior. Bradley would have been significantly favored earlier. An SD (or even morally UD) in a 50/50 fight over the smaller guy, not proven vs genuine welters, who just requested a rehydration limit is not a "fantastic" result.
