    His defensive skills also improved much after the knockout loss to marquez

    Floyd could hardly land a clean blow in their fight. It was far from the best we have seen manny offensively, but his defense was on point

    He's definitely among the very best to do it.

    Fair shout
    I've never had a problem with this viewpoint unless I'm debating regarding the skills of another fighter from his era

    I have him in around top 10-15, but if we are talking just more modern TV era, then easily top 5 or thereabouts

    Amazing boxer

    Pac fought well and actually did better than most expected. Even though I had him winning a draw was by no means egregious at all. He was lucky that Barrios held back. Pac really needs to consider leaving for good. There’s really no reason to keep going.
