        JMM called out Floyd for the fight, and 2 lbs don’t make up the 12 round ass beating he got
        Oscar was past prime but that’s one of Pac’s supposed best wins lol. It was Oscar’s best weight at the time and Floyd fought the #1 fighter at 154 in his first fight as a junior middleweight. You *******s make this too easy
        As what the boxing legends keep saying "FLOYD WILL ONLY FIGHT GUYS UNDER HIS TERMS/WATCH" means floyd will never fight an elite prime opponent.

          The only one you could argue he avoided was Margarito.

          Which in the grand scheme of things is like saying Pacquaio avoided Nate Campbell and fought David Diaz instead.

          Mayweather’s legacy as an ATG is set in stone.

          10 current #1 ranked fighters beat in the division being fought in.

          7 current P4P ranked fighters beat.

          One of the ATG’s no question about it.

            Fights that Mayweather could be argued to have avoided. Margarito at 147 and Stevie Johnston at 135. That's it. Margs is still a bit of a reach because he would have fought him for the "right" money as Arum stated.

              Funny how the Pacquiao fans ignore the fact that Pac avoided the same Mostly that Floyd spanked over 10 rounds. From Freddy Roach's own words. Mosely was too dangerous.

                Find me one credible boxing source that says Pac won. Even Floyd’s biggest haters say Pac lost

                      U guys need to stop using roach words against or for pac

                      Roach is a big mouth

                      He tries too hard to make it look like he means something

                      Tbh I wish pac would have gone with goosen or something

                      Pac would have been better off
