    Manny was a great fighter he deserves all the kudos he gets. If fans prefer him than Mayweather so be it, he fought a fan friendly fight for his entire Career. However, PAC was beat by Mayweather and many other fighters.Marquez knocked out PAC so badly that PAC put up a video a few days later with his wife feeding him noodles because his eyes were still closed. PAC fans should attack Marquez ,that defeat was more humiliating than anything Mayweather did to pac
    Over here we don't give full credit to beating guys when they are shopworn or out of their prime.

    Either Floyd beat a prime Manny or he didn't. In this case he did not.

    We don't get into the excuses.

    Floyd had an opportunity to make a fight with the best version of Manny but imo he was too scared, so Marquez gets full credit for beating the more prime version of Manny

There is no way smaller fighter is beating mayweather. Also mayweather doesn't brawl he is strictly a boxer. No brawling at all. The way Duran beat leonard he got in a fire fight with Duran. And then he got outboxed and quit in their next bout. Truth is Durans weakness is movment and boxing ability. Floyd would strictly box Duran.
      Wtf Duran is bona-fide top ten all time great fighter. Floyd hasn't beat anybody on Duran's level in their prime ever.

      The best guys he beat are Hatton and Corrales. That's levels below.

        Thats ure opinion. Also the way u rank someone personally don't have anything to do with the styles. I don't think Duran gets passed mayweathers style. Mayweather is a incredible boxer. ......Duran has always had problems with movement and boxing ability. Its the styles. Couple the size advantage and how great of a pure boxer mayweather was I don't see Duran winning that fight. Hearns has a way better shot as he is bigger then may with atg jab and skills. Hearns has the size advantage coupled with the skills.

            Maybe he will rate as a Pac Fantasy Fight opponent
            Haney will be a great fighter without cheating and cherry picking his opponent and the important part without the help of judges to win fights.

              And mayweather can barely win a rematch against an average boxer like castillo.

                I don't care and follow midget boxer like pacquiao. mayweather will beat him 10 out of 10 because of size advantage. I'm just telling the truth about maywether that he's just a good boxer with excellent media hype and of course the judges was part of mayweather undefeated record.

                    De La Hoya was a one handed fighter. Not even on his best days could he best prime Mayweather. He struggled against a blow up Mayweather. Tito was too clumsy. He would struggle to land a clean shot and Mayweather’s speed and defense would be too much. Now you can make a good case for the other three. Especially Hearns with his length and power.
                    Oscar was 34 when they fought and was a year from being obliterated by Manny when they fought and STILL a lot of people think Oscar won. It was a close fight.

                    The Oscar that fought Tito in '99 or fought Pernell Whittaker in '97 would've done even better.
