    Pac would get slaughtered by Floyd at 130. I'm not convinced he could beat Valero or Guzman yet. Sure he can beat the old guys, but prime guys???...I have to see it to believe it. If Pac fights Soto instead of Valero, I'm going to say things to Pac fans that might force them to put me on iggy lol.

      Did I actualy see you say " HIT HARDER" ? Floyd has had 25 KO's in his career and Pacquiao has 35 KO's and counting! yeah different weight classes which usualy means Floyd should have more than a little guy that started out as a featherweight. And did you say "FASTER" Pacquiao speaks for himself with his speed! BUT Mayweather is Smarter, I would have ducked Margarito, Mosley, and retired before Cotto could touch me too!

        It takes Mayweather 2 rounds to get used to Pacquiao's speed and then he stops him late.

        Mayweather's counter punching skills, hands, chin, and power punching are a lot better then Juan Manuel Marquez, Erik Morales, and Jorge solis. He's also faster then all of them.

        And the biggest thing, HIS DEFENSE.

There has been a lot of comparing these two.So how do they match up here when you compare them at 130 in terms of career and head to head in the ring? who was more dominant?
          Pac would have a much better chance than Cotto. It would be a great fight, but I think Mayweathers defensive skills would pull him through with a slight edge.

              he got his first belt at flyweight but he was a teenager.

              manny is more a natural junior feather / feather though.

                This is about who hits harder at 130, it doesn't matter if Pac has 100 KO's. Floyd has a 20/27(74%) KO rate at 130, Pac has a 4/8(50%) KO rate at 130. Even though this makes your 35-25 rationale worthless, I'll say this: these numbers don't even mean that much because Pac faced consistently better opposition at this weight. Just goes to show that you can't use numbers to prove a point, so try another argument next time.

                This is a fact: Floyd is a well-respected(perhaps even feared) puncher at 130 and plenty strong enough to match or come close to matching Pac's punch.

                  Mayweather was better. His skills were just so awesome at that weight.

                    yeah my point is that that poster probably didnt know that, and he also probably didnt know that pac lost the title on the scales, got knocked out because of dehydration and jumped up to 122 for his next fight...that's a THREE divisions jump.

                    I agree with you: Pac is natural at 122-126. Anything below that is a young fighter abusing his body to make weight.
