Has Pacquiao surpassed Mayweather as the #1 P4P fighter

[Burner]

How, if its clear hes not as good as Floyd, and many people and sports writers had him losing to Marquez not once but twice now. Floyd is so good he isnt even given close fights, thats not his fault, hes just that far beyond people talent wise.

Perfect post.......

In a p4p sense..I cant see Manny winning a round against Floyd....

[xzworks]

he overpast calzaghe and become #2 for now..

[MakeDamnSure]

Arum said that Hatton is out because he will face Malignanni at the end of the year and he give the hint that Pac will face David Diaz in June or July(Because of the Cut) and Nate Campbell..

I believe Floyd's inactivity and a rematch with oldie Oscar and probably a very close decision will change the landscape.

I don't think P4P necessary mean how well you box or how talented you are, but the fights you've had against top quality opponent

Well then you don't know what p4p is all about. It has nothing to do with resume, all that your resume does is provide an indication as to how you would do against other fighters. Pound for pound means basically if the weight was equal and size isn't a factor, who would win. It doesn't matter if you have wins over king kong, bruce lee and all four ninja turtles, you still might not make it on the p4p lists.

Pac would blow out Floyd in spectacular fashion. Unfortunately, the weight is prohibitive. Floyd would have to come down to 135. Won't happen. But, Floyd has to fight Cotto or his reputation as a ducker will be forever sealed. I've got serious doubts Floyd will ever put his record on the line against Cotto.

LOL... You really understand boxing dont you?

[MELLY-MEL...]

For me his is 3rd behind PBF-1st, and Calzaghe-2nd. he is not a better boxer than either of them.

#2 still, fight was too close

It's not like it was a close fight against a bum. Pac was facing a top 5 P4P fighter. Some have JMM as high as #3 P4P. When was the last time Mayweather fought someone in the top 5 P4P?

Resume does mean something because you have to prove you're the best against the best. Everyone saw the talent Mayweather had when he came out of the Olympics. Did people automatically put him #1 P4P? No, he slowly worked his way up there by beating good fighters. The problem now is he's #1 and hasn't tried to challenge himself. He's living off past accomplishments and a fighter like Pac who is still fighting the best deserves to move past him.

And if you're talking about P4P in the sense of who would win a fight if weight wasn't equal, Mayweather-Pacquiao is a pick'em fight. I could see either guy winning the fight.

not in a million years!!!!!! Manny was outboxed and out thought for the majority of tonight, and im a ricky hatton fan, mayweather has barely been outboxed or out thought for a single round in his career

outboxed not by a large margin unlike the first one. manny showed better defense, good footwork, ring maturity and outjabed marquez last night.

marquez was on the other hand was outgunned by the pacman.

manny deserves that spot. pbf hand picks his opponents while packy fights the best out there.

PACMAN SHOULD BE #1 P4P!

yes mayweather is no longer p4p in my book he was untill lastnight ... i dunno how u people put up with him holdin teh p4p spot in ur sport ..he does not deserve it he figths once a year only 4 big money against hand picked opponents ..pac man mayweather calzaghe is how it goes ..once manny moves up and beats diaz none of you are gonna be able 2 argue iwth it ...whats mayweather doin ?? fighting de la hoya ...what does that do for anyone ?
