Who and how they beat them are the only things that matter..

Who you beat. Even if you beat a great that is somewhat past it no one can take away the W on your career. Losing later in your career can always be explained away as being past it .

We judge a fighter by their accomplishments.It doesn't make sense to judge a fighter off their losses.. IF that's the case, we would barely have any mega stars in boxing.. How many undefeated megastars are out there besides Floyd?? and im talking about super stars that everybody knows about..
Imagine judging Pacquiao off his losses to Torrecampo and Singsurat..
Re: What's more important... who you beat or who you lost to?....
Win or lose it's who you fight, if you keep fighting the best available, you have done your job, otherwise you're just cashing in. That's my opinion and not the popular one. That's why my favorite fighters are Glenn Johnson and Jhonny Gonzalez, sure they have losses on there records, but they always put up a good fight and always fight the best available.
What matters in the popular opinion is that you beat the sanctioning affiliates. By that I mean snatching up titles that were handed to someone by a sanctioning body.

Who you loose to matters as it shows who your willing to fight but who you beat is what really counts.
