I'm not saying Pacquiao hasn't worked as hard as Mayweather to get where he is. But Pacquiao has struggled with several guys in his career that Floyd would have dusted. Different styles, yes, but Floyd's style is better and has made him the better fighter between the two.
maybe.
let's let history judge them.
different styles of fighters , diego.
floyd had his dad and uncles teaching him since birth.
manny had to learn fighting in pro fights instead of amateur fights.
as far as the agapito fight......hard to look good when your opponent is leading with his head , elbowing , lowblowing and giving you a charlie horse.
anybody can have a bad night. anybody can have an ugly fight.

was it that?
i thought he got punched in the thigh too.
it was a long time ago......
i know it was a charlie type horse deal though......i remember manny grabbing his leg and he couldn't get up for a minute.Yes it was. I thought it was a low blow but when they showed the replay it was obvious that it was Sanchez's knee was culprit.
Sanchez was roughhousing Manny when they both went down Sanchez's knee landed on Manny's thigh.

Explained nicely
Your all wrong. it was when he an exhibition with me and when i dropped him with body shot he couldnt get up. But after the fight, we made a business deal and the fight never proffesionaly happend.
real cool.....

and honestly it's fights like the one against Sanchez that keep me from ever ranking Pacquiao above Mayweather. sure, Pacquiao wasn't as good at the lower weights, but he had fights where he struggled. Mayweather never really struggled with anybody except Castillo and that was with one arm for 11 rounds. to get ahead of Mayweather in my book, Pacquiao would have to win titles in 6 or 7 divisions

R.I.P. Agapito Sanchez
Murder
Sánchez was pronounced dead on November 15, 2005 after being shot two days before by an off-duty police officer in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Sanchez died at a Santo Domingo hospital hours after surgery to remove two bullets from his stomach. Sanchez was shot by an officer in the Dominican air force. "A mob then chased and beat the officer, whom police identified as Sgt. Diogenes Nova Rosario".
Damn, RIP.
Agapito was also deducted two points which led to the draw on the scorecards.
did they deduct points?
i don't remember.
i remember the ref kept warning agapito for shit.
it was an awful fight to watch.
