    I have been trying to figure this out for a while, but what weight class is Manny Pacquiao an all time great in? He really doesn't stay in divisions long enough to determine that. Every great fighter has a weight class that they dominated in. What weight class is Manny Pacquiao an all time great in?

    His reputation was built on Morales, Barrera and JMM

    Well, if you are silly enough to feed a troll, then it doesn't really matter if they are subtle or not. You will still take the bait.

    Nah, I think this is kinda subtle compared to other similar threads...

    I guess the bar is set fairly low. :-(

    None. He's an ATG for his whole career, but not at any particular division. He was only at 126 for a very short period of time: dominating Barrera, drawing with Marquez, and then fighting 3K Battery. At 130, the case is stronger, but even then, it's not a particularly strong argument.

    Would be more prudent to wait years after Pacquiao retires, and then evaluate his career.

    All the questions will surely be answered then, not now. What's the rush anyway?
