We all know Marquez is PAC’s daddy. It’s all on tape 4 times.
Who proved superior skill over Marquez, PAC or FLOYD?

I mean one guy beat Marquez decisively while the other never really has and even got knocked out by him. Pretty easy question to answerComment

Marquez himself would be the only one who could answer this.
Luckily, he has:
Welcome to The Ring. The bible of boxing. All access to boxing's latest news, matches, fights and events.
Marquez agreed to speak about the best fighters he fought in 10 categories:
BEST JAB
Marco Antonio Barrera: When you want to dodge a jab using speed, you must calculate it. That is what I did with him. I tried to guess where his punches were going and then counterpunch and decrease their accuracy.
BEST CHIN
Manny Pacquiao: He took a good shot and he always returned stronger.
FASTEST HANDS
Pacquiao: He has a lot of power and speed.
FASTEST FEET
Pacquiao: He is always everywhere. He is a tough fighter.
SMARTEST
Sergey Fedchenko: The Ukrainian fighter, no one knew him. He had a great counterpunching (style), speed and a great jab. He was very intelligent also. Manuel “Mantecas” Medina was also very smart.
STRONGEST
Pacquiao: When he fought, he moved his hips a lot. Then I analyzed that all his power came from there, in the hips. I understood that he couldn’t do his power moves and he would have problems if I used speed so I started fighting different.
BEST PUNCHER
Pacquiao: In all the fights I had, nobody hit me harder than him.
BEST DEFENSE
Pacquiao: He is great at closing his defense, he has a good guard and it is very hard to land (a clean punch). After four fights with him, I was able to know him better. I also learned his mistakes. Fedchenko also had great defense.
BEST SKILLS
Juan Diaz: Juan has a lot of speed. He was aggressive and elusive. On the other hand, Joel (Casamayor) was great with the distance and he was a brilliant fighter.
BEST OVERALL
Pacquiao: Without doubt, the best pound-for-pound of his time and I faced him at his best.
No mention of Floyd - I think marquez has no respect for floyd because of the catch weight and coming in over the agreed limit. (Floyd had to pay marquez almost a million if i remember right - similar to how he pays to win most of his fights).Comment

Floyd Mayweather, I think Marquez only won 1 round etc
Marquez did not really have a answer for Mayweather's ability.
Marquez was not weight drained, so I have no idea why people are bringing up weight issues. Marquez was not good enough, looked to be 1-1/2 levels below Mayweather etc
