Let's look at his "accomplishments"
Hatton- Was never an elite fighter, and past his boxing prime
DeLaHoya-Weight drain and shot
Marquez- Most boxing experts and fans say he lost both fights despite the 4 knockdowns
Morales- Past his boxing prime because of all the wars Erik has been in. He wasn't past his physical prime, but his boxing prime for sure.
Barrera- A shot fighter and past his boxing prime even though he was only 29, been in too many wars.
This post is pure ignorance. Before Pacquiao beat Hatton everyone was talking about Ricky being back at the top of the P4P list and said Ricky would "Bully" Pacman. Everyone said DLH was too big, too strong ect... is it Mannys fault that their game plan to weakin Oscar worked? Marquez an excelent fighter and one of the P4P top 3 right now never beat Pacquiao, and yes Pacquiao did edge him out, im afraid knock downs are apart of boxing and they do effect the scorecards general. No one said Morales and especially Barrera were out of their primes until Pacquiao beat them, so please bring some relevance to the next post!
So for the Fillipino fans and Pacman fans especially the Orientals, please be objective and analyze this. Pacman accomplishments aren't that great. Overrated yes especially in the days of ESPN and Nike.
And no I'm not Mexican or an Pacman "hater".
