      I won't argue that. Currently.

        you know what, i think pacquiao is a better fighter than floyd. being a great fighter is not based on skill alone.

        floyd just fought a guy two weight class divisions below his and still did not make the agreed weight. it was a tune-up fight but he could have at least fought a guy his size instead of fooling the public by fighting the recognized #2 guy who clearly had little to no shot of giving him a challenge. the bad thing about it is that it was billed a super fight.

        pacquiao is fighting one of the top welterweights in his second fight at that weight, right after beating the crap out of the best jr. welterweight. that takes some major balls cause he's already on top, and does not need to prove anything anymore. he could have fought someone like valero and still would have been ranked number 1 in the world above floyd (yahoo rankings is ****. paul williams at #3? give me a break)

        if pacquiao and floyd fought, i would favor floyd to win. ive been saying that since the oscar fight and still have'nt changed my mind. but pacquiao has a better legacy than floyd even if floyd beats him.

            That is the key issue.

            I would respectfully ask that you not allow your jealousy for Floyd to distract you from the core issue: boxing ability.

              there were several threads here discussing that matter.

              floyd has better skills than pacquiao.

              but pacquiao had a better resume, better opposition, better wins, had more world championships, and had more lineal championships than floyd.

                You can't envision a scenario where Pac would fight a guy two divisions below him?

                  its quite obvious that there is heavy american bias when rating & evaluating floyd's talent & accomplishment.

                    floyd's style and size is what would win it for him. doesn't mean he accomplished more than pacquiao.

                      So, was that NSB poster opinion ...or an external list?

                      I'm asking because I haven't seen an external list yet, and I would find that interesting.
