    ...and a rubber can be used as the slang term for a condom. You gotta remember that Rainmaker speaks English as a second language.

    Barrera I (the breakout), Morales II (rebounding from his only prime time loss after being down early again to stop Morales), and Hatton (from the shit I can´t believe this just happened standpoint).

    I don´t think beating that version of DLH was even in the top 8 Pacquiao victories, if you saw Oscar at the weight in, you knew he was dead.

    Pac slowly but methodically crushed Oscar, and he dismantled Barrera, but the way he totally annihilated Hatton was jawdropping. That stoppage really resonated with me.

    Barrera I would be my pick as well and for many of the reasons you state.

    The other big wins, while impressive, have fighters with losses in their recent pasts. Barrera was on a big roll, at the top of his game, and he got completely outclassed and beat down. It lead to questions of trying to remember a top 5 p4p guy getting so completely outclassed. Not sure anyone ever topped that fight with a response.

    But the Barrera win didn't elevate him to mythic status like his recent run has so maybe one of these recent fights is more impressive.
