Judge by the Same Standards Who is the BETTER fighter Mayweather or Pacquiao??

not to mention he's asking who the better fighter is. not who's had the best career, who the best fighter is. That implies he means NOW, and he brings up what they were doing 10 years ago ffs.
Its probably still Floyd, but i think he's annoyed that his boy has been scartching his ass for the last 2 years while Manny has been getting the headlines.
Actually, can i change my vote, i wanna vote manny, cos for all i know mayweather has lost it. i've seen no evidence of his greatness recently
exactly...he wants to talk about what happened 10 years ago
PAC in his prime, has been climbing weight classes and testing himself
PBF in his prime was doing WWF and Dancing With The StarsComment

that is fine but fighters do not rank higher on all time list because of styles..
because if that was the case Mike tyson would be the greatest fighter of all time.Comment

To me this question is basic logic and commonsense. but
people are obviously judging Mayweather on a higher scale than Pacquiao.
When they say Pacquiao is greater than Mayweather.
and that is fine, UNTIL they start saying they think Pacquiao is better than Mayweather.
Once they say Pacquiao is better than Mayweather they can not used double or higher standards no more. they have to judge mayweather and pacquiao on the same standards.
and once we used the same standards for Pacquiao and Mayweather.
the argument is not even close for who is the better fighter.
Now we are judging them on the same scale. and nomore curve for pacquiao since some people say he is now overall better than Mayweather.
Manny Pacquiao- he's been knocked out in the first round before
- he got outboxed by a washed up Erik Morales
- Manny Pacquiao fought Marquez , knocked him down three times and still got a draw.
You have to remember when Manny Pacquiao was getting Knockout
Floyd Mayweather was winning fighter of the year awards and beat fighters like Genaro Hernandez.
You have to remember pacquiao was 21 years old when he got knock out in the 3 round ....
Ask yourself what was Mayweather doing when he was 21 years old?
.I will give you the answer.. He was winning Fighter of the year awards by knocking out fighters like Genaro Hernandez who never lost at 130.
By Knocking out fellow top ranked contenders like Angel Manfredy.
While Pacquiao was getting Knockout by No name opponents.. Mayweather was winning Fighter of the year awards by fighting world class opponents...
Just think about that..?
You have to remember the only reason Pacquiao is ranked poud for pound #1 is because Mayweather retired.
So when place and judge on the same standard...You can not seriously say Pacquiao is better than Mayweather.
Oh yeah Mayweather is undefeated.
Can you say Pacquiao Make it Though Floyd's Resume Undefeated....
Doing it at the same age, and the same circumstances as Floyd did....
I can tell you Mayweather would make it through Pacquiao's entire resume undefeated doing it at at the same age, and the same circumstances as Pacquiao.
- Pacquiao at 24 is not beating A Prime, Undisputed, Best Body Puncher in boxing in Jose Luis Castillo
- Pacquiao at 23 is not beating a Undefeated, Prime #5 P4P fighter Diego Corrales
- Pacquiao at 21 is not beating Genaro Hernandez
- Pacquiao at 23 is not beating A Prime #4 ranked in the division Jesus Chavez
Pacquiao was getting knocked out in the 3rd round by a fighter name Medgoen Singsurat when he was 21.. So you cant tell me he would beat a fighter like Genro at 21...
You can only say Pacquiao better than Mayweather when you are applying a double standard on Mayweather. Because if you judge them equally...
there is no way you can say Pacquiao is better than Mayweather.
no way.
Saying all this through Pacquiao is still a great fighter
For all we know, Floyd could have lost a good amount of his ability during a fight. Manny without a doubt is in the prime of his career and has proven "recently" that he's become a more well rounded fighter. We'll have to see Sept 19th if Floyd still has it (though I'd much rather see it against Pacquiao).Last edited by Ravishing; 07-01-2009, 05:20 PM.Comment

Floyd Mayweather is the absolute best fighter of the past 20 years, no one can touch his natural born skills.
Horus why did you have to come out of your cave?
Horus, Floyd might be greater, and better, but pacquiao is willing to fight the best out there, unlike Floyd that decides to fight a lightweight with no drawing power whatsoever, had to fake an injury because he sold no tickets.
Floyd is not an attraction, is like Dana White said...he just did big numbers because he was fighting poeple with a huge following.
But Floyd is the greatest fighter of this generation, that is simply not debatable.Comment

There's no denying that Floyd all around is the better Boxer, but that doesn't guarantee him a victory either. People can disect fighter's abilities to the tee, but NOBODY knows the result until they get in the ring. Otherwise Boxing would be just another form of debate like in High School.
this post is a perfect example of point out the obvious.Comment
