      morales beat chavez more impressively. chavez was just a challenger i believe when pbf beat him. morales beat a champion

        floyd wouldnt have made it into his 20s if he started pro at age 16. he'll probably have the same record as emmanuel augustus

          I think they are very similar in size. They both jumped multiple weightclasses regardless of who they fought.

          Pacquiao, while shorter is stockier than Mayweather as the tale of the tape shows. Mayweather on the other hand has the much longer reach and is taller.

          I think Pacquiao has the better resume however, better competition fought. Floyd has a solid resume as well.
          Pacquaio being a south paw, having the hand speed to match Floyd and almost Hatton like foot speed PLUS the angles and workrate, makes it a MUST SEE.

          I've been telling people, Pacquaio would put up a better challenge then any WW right now but they don't listen.

            hatton can easily fight at 147 if he chooses to but he does'nt belong vs the topguns there!

              Lmao, Pacquaio who had very poor defense early on made it...Mayweather who is ALOT better defensively wouldn't?

              Why should I take you serious?

                  Pac continued to improve as a fighter as he approached 30, the age when Floyd was cherry picking. Impressive what both of them have been able to accomplish at lower weights, but while Floyd is afraid of anyone that has any chance at all of taking his 0, Pac is taking on the best challenges he can find.

                    Pacman fought Oscar at 147
                    and who was the amateur wearing headgears at that time?

                      Not even comparable. Floyd is a coward .
                      LOL honestly that fly title was basically a fluke he was getting outboxed and he got KTFO in his 2nd defense.........

                      he had to jump up 2 divs after that effectively proving how huge he was down there....

                      and ledwaba was not "the man"...he was a title holder(perceived as a very good one)...

                      at 126 barrera was the official man(except he got a gift vs morales)

                      at 130 his fight with marquez was controversial(most thought he lost)

                      at 135 he beat a paper...

                      im not saying manny doesnt deserve credit, he does, but he has some ifs and buts in his reigns that make it seem less immpressive than the paper, and most of them were very short......

                      floyds ru at 130-135 were undeniable greatness...(i do think he got beat by castillo, but he did avange that, and castillo was very good)
