    Has Pacman overshadowed Floyd with his last 2 wins?

    Surely everyone who saw the fight, know that Pac's fights with Oscar and Hatton were far more exciting and spectacular than Floyd's fights with the same opponents.

    Now if you're a casual fan, and u saw all 4 fights, who's fights will u be purchasing again in the future? Pacman has a much more fan friendly style, and is humble. He has the respect of the fans, and has shown that he is willing to step up to the plate and take the risks to prove he is worthy of his pfp#1 status.

    So my question is: Has Pac overshadowed Floyd? I personally think so. He's a worldwide phenom. He has nike endorsments, and has been listed in forbes magazine as top 100 most influential people in the world. His following and fanbase has risen dramatically over the past few yrs, and will continue to grow. I feel Floyd senses this, and this is why he picked the night of his fight with Hatton to announce his comeback fight. He basically tried to steal Pac and Hatton's thunder, but to no avail. Pac's demolishion of Hatton was too much to be outshined by Floyd's classless antics.

    As much as Floyd's fanboys want to disagree, right now Floyd needs Pac more than Pac needs Floyd.

        Im a huge fan of both,but obviously he has..hes TKO'd the icon DLH who Floyd took to a decision,and BRUTALLY ko'd Hatton to the point it looked like Hatton was dying in only two rounds,his fan base is huge,everywhere he goes hes got followers,****,he even had a bigger ovation in Manchester,and if the rumours are true,and the PPV did do either 1.5 to 2 million buys,its proof in the pudding

        Pac is a global phenom

            No pac has had Floyd's left overs. Floyd was the first man to wipe that 0 off Hatton's record plus thought a better version of DLH than Pac did.

                This thread's been done a few times now. Pac's got the better res and legacy now. Fans obviously like him more. Mr boat buyer can't get back the p4p status without Pac losin. But none of this means he's better than Mr boat buyer. They gotta scrap for everybody to know.

                  About a year ago, this would be true. Pac is definitely the more popular fighter now.

                    Hes run as the p4p number 1 has been a lot more dominant then when Floyd was no doubt about it.
