    And comparing the victories of Manny vs Thurman and Floyd vs Canelo in their advanced ages, Pacquiao did it better because Floyd beat a weight drained, nerfed/handicapped Canelo with a catchweight.

    So Floyd handicapped Canelo but Pacqiao did not handicap Cotto or Margarito or Oscar? Just respond to this point only.
    Not to mention, Pacqiao beat all those guys when they were coming off spectacular losses AND we can include guys like Broner, Rios, Hatton, Clottey, Mosley etc as guys that were coming off losses as well.

        We know why folks hate Devin Haney.

        Bernard Hopkins eloquently said it years ago about why jealous folks hate the "slick African-American style"

          I love Bread, but there's noway that Philly boxing has a bigger legacy & influence than Philly soul

          Gamble & Huff
          Philadelphia International
          MFSB
          Billy Paul
          The Roots
          Jill Scott

          Even The Jacksons got a lot of their biggest hits from Gamble & Huff back in the days.

              You really want to argue that beating Thurman was better than beating Canelo?? Thurman had 1 fight in about 2 1/2 years leading into the pac fight and was nearly ko’d in that one fight by a much smaller journeyman in Josesito Lopez. As for weight drained, Canelo weighed in at 153 in his previous fight against Trout and weighed in at 152 against Mayweather. Most agree that weight aside, a 36 yr old Mayweather was light years better than Canelo that night and Canelo had no shot regardless. On the other end, better chance that an active version of Thurman beats a 40 year old Pac.

                You act as if you’re some authority and you’re just a guy named poop**** on a boxing site.
