it's pretty close between the first morales win and the hatton, but i'd go with the hatton since 140 was hatton's domain and never been beaten much less ktfo. the marquez sd12 the least impressive because many think he actually lost both to jmm
The fight against Hatton was the most impressive...no one thought he would do that to Hatton...he just destroyed him, and did it without taking any damage to himself...it was by far his most impressive win cause he is at the peak of his talents now and fights people never thought could even happen are being talked about as not only fights that can, but fights he can win....I mean who thought that the Pac-man could possibly take on Cotto...no one....but now people talk about it as a fight he can win....lasts just how impressive he was in his last fight. So the fight with Ricky Hatton was his most impressive win.
Yea he was unknown at the time and he blew ledwaba away. That was impressive indeed but ledwaba is not a big name fighter but it's still a good win for pacman.
Ledwaba was no lineal champ as compared to Barrera and Hatton (Lineal = best of that division). Not that he's not a good challenger for Pac, he was however the favorite with a woopin 33-1 record at that time when they fought.
good point:good although he was favor to win this fight coming in. Nobody thought he will beat hatton like that. It was very impressive.
Yes the Hatton fight was Pac's absolute icing on the cake and it only cements his legacy to even greater heights no one could imagine but we must not forget that when he fought Barrera he was lesser skilled as compared to what he is capable now. Back then he was predictable but ferocious with a lot of heart despite his status as the underdog. You were saying no one knew that he would do that to Hatton, I definitely agree. BUT you cannot forget how Pac destroyed Barrera all 11 rounds including multiple KD's. History will remember as Barrera, the greatest win of his career due to Barrera's ATG status and also the Hatton's win as the proof of his greatness :good
I'm torn between Barrera 1 and Hatton but I went with Hatton, mainly becase the MAB1 fight catapulted Pac to potential HOFer while the Hatton fight catapulted Pac to ATG status plus, that KO was devastating! KO of the year! but I could still be just on a high after the fight, lol
to be honest, i've always thought his win over morales in the 2nd fight was the best. the choice might be a head scratcher for some, but thats just my opinion.
