Pacquiao is an incredible, incredible fighter. The likes of him just don't come along very often. He is truly remarkable. If you have to ask why he is an ATG, or come up with childish reasons for hwy he is, then you know **** about boxing and it's history.
Yet he hasn't fought a prime fighter in 2 years. ATG, yes. Overrated wins over Oscar, Hatton, Cotto, Margarito, also yes.
Oh please. atsch Two - maybe three - of those guys you mentioned had the potential to upset Pacquiao, but they didn't. He beat down every single one of them. Not just beat them. He beat the brakes of of every single one of them. Not one of them was a tough fight. Between those four guys, that is 34 rounds. Pacquiao won 31 of those rounds. Even against supposedly non prime guys, how many fighters can pull that off? Oh, and by the way...name four guys he could have fought in the place of those you mentioned that wouldn't have you thinking Pac has all these wins over shop worn fighters.
