    Yall must have forgot!




    Roy's 2 biggest wins in Toney and Hopkins > Pac's win over faded MAB, declining and catchweight Cotto and Floyd's win over Corrales and 147 Hatton.

    Why must you once again denigrate Manny's wins here compared to the others?

    Wasn't Toney massively weight drained? And Hopkins still fairly green, compared to the technical king of awkwardness he would later become?

    And didn't Floyd force Coralles to fight in a weight class he could no longer make? And didn't he force Ricky up to a weight class he was clearly not suited for?

    I'm not criticising these fighters, or the fights, just highlighting the anti Pac bias that we have on these boards.

    Knocking out Barrera and Miguel Cotto are MASSIVE wins and arguably more impressive than outpointing Toney and Hopknis like Jones Jr did.

    Also Jones won a world title at heavy against a notoriously mediocre belt holder. Manny has beaten, nay destroyed the best fighters in the weight classes he has move up to.

    You can argue about catchweights, but no fighter in history has moved the weight classes like Manny has, and destroyed the best the weight classes can offer.

    Juan Manuel Marquez in 2008 is almost equal to Barrera and maybe even a little better than Cotto.

    at end of 2007 before he fought Manny Marquez was ranked #3 pound for pound

    at end of 2008 after he fought Manny Marquez was ranked #2 pound for pound

    Marco Antonio Barrera
    in 2003

    at end of 2002 before he fought Manny Barrera was ranked #3
    at end of 2004 Barrera was ranked #7 pound for pound
    The Ring Magazine's Annual Ratings: 2004 - Boxrec Boxing Encyclopaedia
    at end of 2005 Barrera was ranked #3 pound for pound
    The Ring Magazine's Annual Ratings: 2005 - Boxrec Boxing Encyclopaedia




    These two wins are better than Toney And Hopkins.


    Toney was ranked #3 pound for pound but after the loss to Jones he was never rated again.

    Hopkins would later be pound for pound #1 but was just ranked #8 Middleweight at the time of the Jones fight. This would indicate that Hopkins was still developing at age 29.
    Had Jones beat Hopkins after the Trinidad fight ( Jones was looking forward to fight Tito for the money) then it can be argued that that win plus Toney was better.
