Assuming he fights and beats Mikey Garcia:
- Tie with Floyd Mayweather as the boxer with most past/present/future individual (rematches not counted) world champions defeated with 22. This is if we don't include Jorge Solis in the list since he's just an interim champion. So in a way, he unofficially breaks the record with 23 if we count Solis.
- If an interim title is on the line, it would be his first ever interim title. He also unofficially breaks his record as the oldest boxer to win a Welterweight title.
- Extension to Pacquiao's streak of fighting past/present/future world champions since the third Erik Morales fight late 2006. Again, counting Jorge Solis, that streak stretches way back to the second Erik Morales fight early 2006. Boxers rarely has that long streak of fighting purely boxers who became champions. I have yet to confirm but this seems to be the longest streak to date.
