Floyd would beat him if they ever fought. But, I can't discredit his 2009 run. Point 1. Pacquiao fought Ricky Hatton in May of 2009. When people say Pacquiao only fights people coming off a loss.Not in this case though, Hatton had just scored a tko victory over Paulie Malinaggi and was undefeated at 140 . He lost to Floyd at welter. That second round knockout was a thing of beauty to this day. Point 2. Miguel Cotto was coming off of two victories at welter and he handles boxers better than Manny does. (Zab Judah, Yuri Foreman who Manny and Freddie decided they shouldn't fight.) Cotto isn't as shot as you think. He's had three stoppage wins since then and is number 1 rated in his weight class as well as a champion.
When Manny finished his 2009 run, I thought he might move up to better competition. But, he hasn't he let's Arum pick his matches for him and Timothy Bradley will win this June. Arum's cashing out on him.
