They demanded the Mayweather fight. There isn't any tougher opposition than that. The guys you're mentioning are several steps down.

Why do people demand Floyd fight the toughest opposition out there but not Pacquiao?

When you talk that way people expect you to back it up.
Beating not one prime elite fighter for the last 7 years just doesn't do it for people sorry.
Canelo may end up being a great win but of course he made him drop to 152 even after fighting 2 faded great fighters at 154 already.
Mosley KOs Margarito in 2009 Floyd fights Mosley and Pacquiao fights Margarito in 2010 and Pacquiao gets more credit even though he fought the loser, Margarito beats and cuts up Cotto Pacquiao fights shot Cotto and nobody says **** about fighting Margarito who actually won the fight and was also promoted by Arum, Mike Alvarado beats Brandon Rios, Pacquiao fights Rios instead of Alvarado, Joshua Clottey loses to Cotto, Pacquiao fights him fresh off the loss, and the list of CHERRY PICKED SHOT opponents goes on and on and ON, hell it goes back to 2005, Morales gets shut out by Zahir Raheem, Pacquiao fights Morales and nobody even mentions Zahir Raheem as a potential opponent and nobody in the media or none of the fans calls Pacquiao out on the BS, Floyd Mayweather would NEVER get away with fighting this crappy level of opposition!Last edited by Ahmed_Ismail; 05-17-2015, 08:16 AM.

There are posters on here who swore if Floyd beat Cotto, Mosley,hatton, canelo and pacquiao they would concede that Floyd is top 10.... You would be hard pressed to find anyone who's conceded anything.

People, whether they want to admit, see Floyd as the superior talent and better fighter, so he's held to a higher standard. Also, some well never feel satisfied until he loses, so they get excited when they see a fighter they believe will hand him that duly loss, but salty when that said fighter fail to deliver and resort to excuses. It is an insane cycle being played out over the 18 years of Floyd's career.
