thinking pac was the same fighter back then. why not use pacs latest fights? JMM-mayweather is even laughable as marquez isnt an even offensive fighter as pacquiao is, just because floyd beat a blown up marquez doesnt mean his skills will prevail against pacquiao.
People bring up JMM because he was the last genuine RIGHT HANDED FIGHTER that Pac faced, and when you see how many problems the straight right gave Manny then of course you have to bring it up because he hasn't proven that he's overcome that problem yet, Oscar, Ricky and Cotto are all left handed fighters.

Cotto: Although he won his last 3-4 fights each fighter had no problem connecting with his face. And even margarito plaster or no plaster walked thru his combos like they werent shit. No Defense questionable power
Hatton: Just destroyed in a completely one sided match with Floyd, punches proved ineffective, ko'd late in fight mercifully. Questionable chin, no defense, questionable offense
DLH:sugar ray leonard woulda made a better showing
His past fights have made him feel invincible and rightly so he is knocking people into oblivion, making folks wanna quit the game. BUT Floyd is a differen animal without huge power but unbelievable defense if you don't believe ask about him
the thing is, basing pac's performance that fight against a counter-punching marquez
vs
basing may's performance against an offensive marquez doesn't warrant nor convince anyone that floyd will automatically outskill pacquiao. marquez is a horrible offensive fighter tbh, the fact that floyd likes to duck, run, and potshot gives the illusion that he's unhitable etc. i think he's overrated.
Those dumbasses don't even go back to just the JMM fights. They go back to Pac gettin KO'd twice when he was in diapers.
Now that shit is really funny.
Honestly speaking ; Contrary to popular belief, Pacquiao's skillset has not improved that much since the Marquez rematch.
Some people are under the false impression that the guy that fought Marquez, and the guy that fought Cotto last night are two entirely different fighters.
But that's just not the case ; apart from his right hand being a little bit better, and him having more weight behind his punches, he's still the exact same guy that fought Marquez to a 1 point victory.
