After Manny's second win over Barrera who do you guys think has the better legacy? Who is the better fighter overall? Who would win in a mythical match up?

Legacy wise they're about equal now. Pac is the only fighter ever to win lineal titles at 12 and 26; Floyd is the only one to do it at 300 and 47 and he's only the eighth in history to win three legit world titles in three weight classes. Floyd is likely to have a longer career and is in a better position to make a case for himself as a top twenty all-time fighter. -
Bump.
I'd like to see what the Pinoys and Floyd fans have to say. Have at it.Comment

Floyds has a better resumeComment

Floyd. Manny has a lot of big wins but he already beat Barrera. Beating him again didn't prove anything. I figured he would win a lopsided decision. Old ass Barrera isn't outboxing young Manny Pacquiao. Manny is close to Floyd but I think an elite boxer could handle Manny. If Manny tried to move up in weight as much as Floyd has I think he'd be in trouble.
Pacquiao is without a doubt #2 pound for pound though.Comment

In my opinion
Pacquiao best wins:
Marco Antonio Barrera (out of prime)
Erik Morales (out of prime)
Juan Manuel Marquez (draw)
Oscar Larios
Mayweather best wins:
De La Hoya (out of prime)
Diego Corrales
Jose Luis Castillo
Arturo Gatti (out of prime mismatch)
Zab Judah (good welterweight contender)Comment

I think Floyd is better in every catagory except resume Pac has him slightly beat on that one.Comment

No matter how you slice it, Pac has two wins over ATG fighters. Morales was past his prime in the second fight, but Oscar was past his prime too. Barrera was slightly past his prime in their fight, but still coming off the most impressive win of his career. A draw with JMM is still very impressive. Ledwaba another impressive win.Comment
