Now that he's an 8-weight champ, is it time to start thinking of Pac as a top 20 ATG?

25, but now in the upper echelons of that category. Let him whup on other 154lbers, or ****, take on the winner of Martinez-Williams at a reasonable weight and he'll be a top 10-15 lock easy.

 

Top 15

 

top 30 right now

 

who do you think he shoul fight aside from floyd within hjs weightclass for pacquiao to be elevated to higher ranking?

 

this is bollocks. the past are held so highly that nobody now can get close

 

Top 25. The fights and not the titles make his legacy.

 

No one can put a dent on old-timers' nostalgia

 

Definitely top 20.

 

as of now id say top 25. If he beats martinez/williams. Id say hes comfortable in top 20 maybe even 15. One of the greatest fighters who ever lived. Period.

 

I haven't watched enough boxing to rank him compared to history. The four lineal titles are more important than the eight alphabet titles.

 

From 22, he's now in my 17th.

Note i didn't move him up when he won against Clottey (cotto's win is just damn sweet, that win is insignifant).

 

He was already top 20 imo. Top 15 according to Bert Sugar (after the Cotto fight), top 10 according to Max Kellerman.


But what the **** do they know? They only cover boxing for a living, and this is ESB.

 

As far as I'm concerned he hasn't moved from where he was before.

 

Since 1990, I can't see anyone ahead of MP. In the 1980's, some of you may put SRL ahead of him. But where does Pac stand compared with Thomas Hearns or Marvin Hagler in your book?

 

some have whitaker above pac.
