    I think Bernardo Osuna said Pacquiao would edge out Whitaker in a mythical matchup

    or maybe it was Chavez

    found it,

    Pac greatness is not just his impact on the sport but in society as well. here we have the filipino midget (haters term), who basically came out of nowhere and started walloping future HOF and atg one after the other.

    haters can hate all they want. no statue has been erected for critiques. pac on the other hand will be the subject of countless articles, books and statues to commerate his achievement.

    to question his achievement based on prime for prime assumptions borders on the impossible since fighter nowadays seem to be prime, not prime and prime again.

    the impact of pac and his training regimen haas been the envy of fighters and would be fighters. he has cross over appeal, something other boxers with the exception of dlh were never able to achieve.

    dude, it doesn't matter is pac losses to all those great boxers...

    at the end of the day those fights never happened. It's all fantasy fights!

    If you want to talk about REALITY! I could start by saying pac is a MEXICUTIONER! Yes, i know he lost his first fight with morales but we all know what happened in their trilogy :yep

    who's the #1 p4p today?! for the past year?!

    The guy you are trying to put donw. No other than PAC :hi:

    History will remember Manny in a much better light than the haters want. They hate that :D. No matter how much bull**** they talk (the same 2-3 mexicans and some other dudes), luckly the entire world is not that ******ed.

    if barrera (126 lineal champ & p4p #3) was already past his prime in 2003, what do you call the barrera whom jmm fought 4 years later and was able to KD him?!

    you ppl are really something else.... :-( :verysad

    Pac could possibly beat some of them if they would be of same size but I am sure that he wouldn't beat the great Pep. Nobody, just nobody will ever beat a guy who could win a round without throwing a single punch!:lol:

    you don't become a 5-weight and a 3-time lineal champ if you're not a truly great fighter. if he wins next week, pac becomes a 6-weight champ and probably the only 4-weight lineal champ this sport has seen. i don't recall anybody else in boxing being able to achieve this (lineal at 4 weights).
