    You can switch it up to Porter>>Horn, Garcia>>Benavidez or take your pick from any one of these Guerrero, Collazo, Chaves, Zaveck, Josesito, Diaz, Karass. It doesn't make much difference either way because the end result is always

    1. Manny
    2. One Time
    3. Spence
    4. Crawford

    Truth + reason + logic = FACTS

    Thanks:D

    Crawford, Spence, Thurman, Pacquiao, Porter.

    I think it's hard to argue against those 5. You could arguably put Ugas into the Top 5 because he had a very close fight with Porter, maybe even beat him. I don't think Danny deserves the Top 5 because he lost to Porter and Thurman. So probably Danny and Ugas on 6 and 7. Apart from that there is IMO a bigger gap in terms of experience, quality and skills.

    And yes I know Porter looked bad vs. Ugas but he did win, I don't think he was all that controversial. And yes Danny looked great against Adrian G. but he still lost to Porter in non-controversial fashion, and Granados ain't some phenomenal talent. I rank all of them above Pac at this point.

    And I still think Thurman is potentially the best h2h, I'm just concerned at what level he's at currently with the layoff and his precarious looking comeback.

    Where do you place Pac if Pac emphatically beats Thurman?

    Pac just came off of a dominant 12 round shut out of Adrien Broner. Porter fought Broner and lost at least 3 rounds, maybe 4 — one of which he was dropped in.

    I think I'd comfortably put him at 3. If he beats Thurman he beat the man that beat both Porter and Garcia. Even if I think at this stage Porter and Danny beat him, he'd at least have a higher level win than either at that point and the piggy back over both would be deserved.

    Porter won a comfortable decision vs. Broner, and Broner four years ago was far better than the one Pac fought. I don't think either win proves much as we all know what Broner is.

    I see. It's just kinda weird how Pacquiao isn't given any credit by anyone.

    He dominated Bradley in III — had it 10-2 or 9-3.

    He shut out Vargas, Broner, and Matthysse before making him quit.

    He beat Horn 9-3 or at worst, 8-4.

    Anyone else on this run would be considered top dog.
