Pacquiao rated No. 2 at super-bantamweight (122 lbs) and feather (126), first at super-feather (130), fourth at super-lightweight (140), and third at welter (147).

shiiiiet. Doesn't get more clear than that.

 

you're delusional man.

Like they said ITS NOT EVEN CLOSE

 

it will sooner or later.

This is one of those things.

 

JCC Jr, fighter of the decade!

 

LOL why did you put Castillo x2 but you didn't put Barrera X 2 and Morales x 2?
