    He became a Jr.MW champion by fighting for a vacant title against a completely shot fighter at a catchweight of 150.

    Even that version of Margarito was still millions times better than prime Geale

    Pacquiao never fought a legit ranked 154 pound fighter and he never fought a legit fight at 154, period. I have a hard time believing he'd have much success at middleweight, but who knows. Since he never really ventured to do anything at 154, I reckon 147 was his limit as an elite.

    Kinda funny that the only argument against this is his inability to make the weight, lol.

    He could’ve had a catch weight at 155 (rings a bell?), come underweight, just like he did for Margo fight and get the title that way.

    But he didn't.

    What he did was fight at 150 for the Jr.MW title against a has been shot fighter.

    Sergio in his prime would have won against any Pac, he's too big.

    If they fought Canelo-style when Sergio was a shell, then Pac would have won.

    I got respect for Manny but hell no, this the same guy who ducked Yuri Foreman who was an actual JMW for a title to fight an unranked disgraced WW in Margarito, he also ducked a Cotto rematch at 154 in 2012 you crazy as hell if you think Manny beats a legit JMW let alone a MW.

    I have never exaggerated what Canelo can do, nor do I need to resort to lies to up Canelo.

    So as I said, get the semen off from under your nose.
