Floyd won titles at 130 all the way to 154. Duran won titles as a LW all the way to middleweight.

Pacman has a good career, but nothing unique.
How many former Flyweight world champions, have gone on to compete at Welterweight ? i would say that is pretty rare because i can't think of a single boxer that has done that, that is incredible and im just glad im in this era to appreciate it.
Didnt SRR start at Welter and below and was competing at 175? doing quite well until he wilted in the heat
No. He was a briliant superb welterweight, a very good middleweight, although he lost his belt 4 times so hardly unbeatable and was 0-1 as light heavyweight suffering a TKO, why is irelevent, he still quit on his stool and lost by knockout.

And Sugar Ray is considered the best of all times, a pretty significant person to compare Pac too, he mixes in high company according to you to that's nice to see
