3 solid reasons that Pac isn't the fighter Mayweather was or ever will be,haters read

wow, i though you were more unbiased as a poster. manny no where near floyd? thats some nonsense. floyd is more talented, but manny is much closer to his level than you portray.

OK. I wouldnt go totally against this statement. And you may very well be right, that at the end of the day, Manny may be closer to Mayweather on terms of an ATG list. But, don't you think that this would also portray the opponents he has fought, mroe so then his overall skill in side the ring?

And don't get me wrong, I know just how strong a resume plays into an ATG type of fighter. But once again, Floyd would have also run through the fighters Manny has faced, and I think Floyd would have done it maybe more convincingly..........Would you agree?!

It's a case of maybe Mayweather not solitifying his spot amongst the greats because of fights perhaps left on the table no?!

Pacquiao will be remembered as a greater fighter than Mayweather. Here's a thread about it:

Look at the results of the poll, 113 to 54 for Pacquiao.

It doesn't matter what you think Mayweather would have done, what is matters is what he has proved. He hasn't proved that he would beat Barrera or Morales, but Pacquiao has.

Since when has BOXING been abouta great fighter who FIGHTS, not one who uses ellusive abilty to make others miss all the while using great countering skills to land clean shots.

When I think of the ATG fighters, to me it's not based on men who shed blood and brawl. I think of fighters like Willie Pep, who never seemingly got a hit with a clean punch. I think of fighters like SRR, who used his hand speed, and his in ring ability to get him through all his toughest fights. I htink of guys like James Toney, who use a Philly Shell type defense to roll punches, to rarley be hit with the 2nd and 3rd punch, all the while landing some of the most accurate and precise, sharp counter shots.

It's not measured on who can go in there and take the most punishment and still have some left in the tank to dish it out. This is BOXING, not the UFC. This sport is about grace, about making others miss, not taking punishment but dishing it out.

All my opinion of course. But this is how I personally remember the great fighters of our past. Theres plenty of good fighters, but only a handful of great ones. Both these 2 men might be remembered as great fighters, but I JUST PERSONALLY THINK THAT FLOYD WILL AND SHOULD BE REMEMBERED AS THE GREATER OF THE 2..

pbf should fight again he is in his prime.. he retires coz of what??? money?? not enough?? or enough???

fight until theres to fight with, until money is there, until he win and lose... until hes old enough for boxing...

then think is he a better fighter?

LOSING makes PBF retires... afraid of what? is boxing scary?

Manny is a great fighter dont get me wrong, but he will not go down on the same elite ability that Floyd has always possessed. Simply put, as somebody has already said, Manny would never have gone through Mayweather's 130-135 resume with no losses. Where as if Floyd was too have fought Manny's fighters, and this is my opinion of course, Floyd beats them handily. Manny is a great champion, but no where near Floyd's level of skill and expertise in the ring, and that';s exactly what Mayweather is inside the ring. He's the Beethoven of boxing.

floyd has great ability but ability is **** if ur not gonna challenge urself.

didnt fight kostya ranked #1 on junior welterweight

Floyd isn't fighting Arum fighters. Floyd never ducked Kostya liar, and Dlh was not ranked 5th at SW liar. He was a world champion. Name the 4 who were ahead of him you fake ass truth teller lol.

It doesn't matter what you think Mayweather would have done, what is matters is what he has proved. He hasn't proved that he would beat Barrera or Morales, but Pacquiao has.

What the heck kind of answer is this lol!!!??? Floyd would kick all 3 of their asses in one night. Barrera, Morales and Pac have all been stopped in a fight so what are you even saying???????

[Boofdatruth]

at least pac is still fighting, with anyone that stands in his path

Yeah, he found out what path Valero and Guzman were on and steered clear of it.
