    If we're talking about weight here, Floyd never had to weight drain his toughest foes to "even" the playing field. Since Pac is being called best p4p I just found it funny that he can't be like the former p4p like Floyd and fight them at their best weight.
    Floyd did not fight Judah, Hatton, and JMM at their best weight. FACT
    Manny didn't fight Barrera, Morales, Cotto, De La Hoya at their best weight. Fact.
    I agree with you on Morales. I think his best weight class was 122.

    Barrera was one of ring mag top 10 p4p fighter, reigning WBC title holder (eventhough he refused to accept the belt) and a lineal champ when Pac fought him the first time. So how can you say that's not his best weight class?

    Cotto weighed in at 146 when he fought Clottey. So what's the big deal there? Pac started fighting 106.

    About De La Hoya at 147. That was DHL's idea.
    Barrera's best weight was 122 just like Morales. And if 1 or 2 pounds was no big deal as you are suggesting then why the catchweight fight? Easy to make Cotto weak that's why. So in reality Manny never fought MAB, EM, DLH, Cotto at their best. Only when they were long in the tooth and way past it did the fight was set up.

    Just like this upcoming fight with Mosley. Mosley is shot, but Manny lovers like you will say he's "prime" and at his best right now.
    Barrera got defeated at 122. He also got DQed fighting the same guy. That's not the division where he earned his p4p ranking and the lineal belt. So wtf are you talking about? He had a great fight with Morales in that division. But don't get carried away with that homie.

    1 pound don't mean jack. And Cotto knew it.

    I never said Mosely was in his prime. Don't make shit up. So far I never hear any pacfan say something that... not even in Pacland.
