Mayweather would have NEVER taken such a risk

    How many all time greats in their prime has he easily beaten
    How many has Pacquiao beaten? Unless you want to claim weight-drained Cotto and Thurman coming off a long layoff are ATGs.

      You can figure it out.

      How much of a risk was it to fight all the shopworn fighters Floyd fought. I say it was 30% or lower.

      You can best believe thats how Floyd cherrypicks his next opponent.

        Don't answer my question with a question.

        How many prime all time greats has Floyd really beat, since you wanted to go on and on about him easily beating a shopworn fighter.

          Not for me to figure out a formula that only exists in your head.

          How were the fighters I named all slow, come forward plodders?

          Do you watch boxing? Explain it.

            Floyd still the king all these years later. They just can't let it go.

              They were all shopworn versions of themselves thats why thats all they could do.

              Now stop making excuses and answer the question.

              What risk percentage was it for Floyd to fight said shopworn fighters that you obviously hold in such high regard. I say 30% or lower

                Given how their fight went, there's no reason to think any version of Pacquiao beats Floyd. Pacquiao has always had obvious, glaring technical flaws, he was just able to cover them with his athleticism.

                Marquez, who is NOWHERE NEAR the counter-puncher Floyd is, gave Pacquiao fits in all of their fights. What did people think Floyd, one of the best counter-punchers of all time, was going to do?

                    What a weird question. How many all time great fighters were in Floyd's era for him to fight that he avoided?

                      Well, to be fair Pac has beat Barrera and JMM who were in their prime and theyre ATGs id say. So Pac has beat 2 at the very least. Plus when Pac is beating solid genuine WWs 7 divisions north of where he started out they dont need to be ATGs for them to be phenomenal wins. Cotto and Thurman were in prime and historically solid no joke WWs. Thats better SRL beating hagler.
