Who has the better resume at 130? Floyd Mayweather or Manny Pacquaio?

Mayweather by a mile. The fact that this poll is even close makes me want to kick somebody in the balls.
The resume the original poster posted as Manny's at 130lbs is highly inaccurate.
The first Marquez fight took place at 126lbs, not 130lbs.
As did the first bout against Barrera.
Manny's record at 130lbs is actually the following:
Lost a UD to Erik Morales
TKO'd Hector Velazquez
TKO'd Erik Morales
UD'd Oscar Larios
KO'd Erik Morales
KO'd Jorge Solis
UD'd Barrera
SD'd Marquez
You can add all that up and it still doesn't top Floyd's blowout of an undefeated, prime wrecking ball of Diego Corrales. Mainly because the SD to Marquez was highly disputed, and the blowouts of Morales came at the tail end of Erik's long career.Comment

Floyd fought a weight drained Chico..
And Morales was only 27 years old when Pac fought him.. He was even competitive against Diaz...
Pacquiao by a mile.. No question about itComment

And Morales was actually 29 years olf when he fought Pac the first time, 30 the second time, and 31 the third time out. Also, keep in mind you're talking about a guy who started boxing at age 5.Comment

However, I will add, this is Ring Magazine we're talking about. Their rankings have been pretty much crap in the last 10 years.
Then again, you can always argue that any mythical P4P ranking is crap, simply based on how status is achieved.....Comment
