    John John Molina
    Pernell Whitaker
    an old JC Chavez
    Ike Quartey
    Hector Camacho
    Steve Forbes

    They all fought and gave a prime Dela Hoya (except for Forbes) a competitive fight. Guess what...they all practically have the same height and reach as Pacquiao. Tell me how does Pacman rank with these fighters? And what makes the Pacman-Dela Hoya match a joke?

    the fights a joke cause pac started at light flyweight ,no one knows if he is even a proper lightweight yet, diaz didnt prove enough. I wouldnt have a problem if he beat nate campbell, casamayor and the winner of katsidis diaz, then move up to 140 beat hatton then I would think this fight was exceptable as he would of proved himself in these higher weights people on this forum dont think weight is a problem anymore look at hatton he cant compete at 147 but is the best at 140 ,pac has already moved up 7 divisions 2 more in 1 step is too much

    Forbes fought a prime De La Hoya? Are you on crack.

    Pac loses to most of them, I would give him a good chance of beating Forbes and Molina but Camacho and Whitaker would school him and Quartey and Chavez would hand him beatdowns.

    - Ike Quartey was a far bigger man naturally than Pac.

    - Pac won his 1st world title at flyweight, none of these guys fought anywhere near that division.

    - None of them jumped 3 divisions from a division they are already small in, to fight De La Hoya.

    First off he beat the **** out of Chavez and Camacho and the Forbes fight wasnt his prime or even close to it maybe if 2008 was actually 2001 then you could say that.

    I am thinking he is saying they are all the same height and reach as pac, though I dont know if thats true. I think some of them are larger for sure
