Floyds Last 3 Vs Mannys Last 3 And Some Strange Contradictions.....

[MagicManBoxing]

Floyd is a so called "cherry picker" that fought

Carlos Baldomir @ 147
Oscar De La Hoya @ 154
Ricky Hatton @ 145

Manny Pacquiao is the so called modern day "Henry Armstrong" that fought

David Diaz @ 135
Oscar De La Hoya @ 145
Ricky Hatton @ 140

1. Baldomir posessed the WBC, IBA, & IBO Belts and was coming off beating Judah & was @ his natural weight
2. Oscar posessed the WBC light middle weight belt & was coming off beating mayorga & was @ his natural weight
3. Ricky Hatton Was Fighting for Floyd's Belt but was coming off beating Jose Luis Castillo & was NOT @ his natural weight


on the other hand

1. David Diaz posessed the WBC light weight title and was coming off beating Erik Morales who announced his retirement directly after the fight & was @ his natural weight
2. Oscar De La Hoya Posessed no belt and was coming off beating steve forbes @ 150 unimpressively & was NOT @ his natural weight
3. Ricky Hatton posessed the IBO light welterweight belt was coming off to beating Pauli Malignaggi & was Fighting @ his natural weight


You could argue that

Floyd Beating Baldomir>Manny beating Diaz
Floyd Beating Oscar>Manny beating Oscar
Manny Beating Hatton>Floyd Beating Hatton

In my opinion to be fair.. if you are going to call Floyd Mayweather Jr a cherry picker you have to call Manny Pacquiao a cherry picker as well

This exact same thread is on ESB right now by a dude named Walk with Me.

I agree with those 2. Idk about Baldomir being better than Diaz...

1) you're skewing the comparison by only going back 3 fights

2) pac brutally stopped diaz, dlh, and hatton in 2. floyd outboxed baldomir, dlh, and KOed hatton in 10

3) if I'm judging these fights based on performance, I'd have to say pac's wins are better.

I like both fighters, but floyd fans needs to stop feeling inferior... both guys are great fighters and both guys acheivements should be recognized and not downplayed.

[whosyourdaddy24]

i can agree to that.

but the way manny dismantles his oppenents the way he dismantled diaz, oscar, hatton

is better than floyd taking 10 rounds to beat baldomir, oscar, and hatton.

i just think that pacquiao will beat mayweather because styles make fights.

the last southpaw mayweather fought with speed was zab and he struggled with the stance.

under a freddie roach gameplan and coming off a hatton victory, pacquiao would win this matchup

[Ch@mpBox@PR]

Another thing you forgot to mention is that manny stoped all 3 in brutal fashion, while Floyd didnt.

And the the only one out of those 3 that Floyd stoped, Manny stoped him 8 rounds faster!!!!!!!!

Manny>>>>>>>>Floyd

[NoFear24]

The difference is, Pac not only destroyed his competition, he jumped right in while he was 130 before all that. He fought Diaz at 135 and then jumped 2 weight classes to fight Dela Hoya, then went back down to take the title away from the 140 champ and Ricky's best weight. All in devastating fashion and is still very humble about everything.

One thing i can say. Pac looks very good knocking those three guys and one had quit in his stool.
