    When I say "recently retired", I mean guys that fought their last fight no later than the 90s or late 80s...obviously, there are many guys who fought before then who'd some of you rate above Pacquiao.

    But my opinion? The one and only guy who fought within the last 15 or 20 years and is above Pacquiao is Sugar Ray Leonard. And maybe...MAYBE Roberto Duran.

    Roy Jones fans are currently trying to find their way to a computer, sensing a disturbance in the force.

    Duran
    SRL

    And i think Pac is almost on Par with Whittaker,Chavez. One big win(Mosley,Mayweather) and he passes them.

    I'm a Jones fan but I won't deny Pacquiao is more accomplished.

    Like others said the 3 guys who are certainly higher than Pac are Whitaker, SRL and Duran.
