What if Pacquiao-Mayweather had actually happened around 2009?

      I know I probably get lumped into the 'hater' category but if he'd fought Cotto rather than 'retire' after the Hatton fight I probably would have become a fan.

        Floyd isn't getting knocked out that is cope. It's possible he gets out worked and loses a close decision. Floyd ain't getting hit like cotton and skeleton Oscar did.
        You may be right. But Maidana had Floyd all over the place trying not to get hit, and Mosley was a punch away from stopping Floyd.

        I believe a prime Pac was too fast and too awkward for Floyd. Floyd knew it too. When he spoke about Pac at that point you could see the hesitation clearly. Pac was a different animal even at the end of his prime and Mayweather wanted zero part of him. I like Floyd and he is a great defensive fighter. But during those negotiations when he started bringing up more drug testing he would basically go kn defensive rants about how he had to protect his health. LOL.

        Manny has never failed a drug test and he got bigger over time, there was zero reason for any of that. Floyd knew there was a good chance he would get stopped. 100%.

          exaggerations

          Shane couldn't knock Floyd down despite buckling his knees

          As for manny his power and finishing ability was alright but far from Buff Guy Artur Beterbiev 10/10 finisher

          Juan, whose chin and defense are nowhere near Floyd, survived after being knocked down 3 times in the round by manny

            Floyd was always the superior of the 2. Pac started at 108 after all, no shame in losing to an all time talent in Mayweather.

              guys without a big weight advantage who could beat Floyd

              Henry and Roberto. OTHER TOP 10 ALL TIMES

              Top Swarmers would bring it to Floyd and exploit his so and so power

                      3) Manny has never failed a drug test
                      1) Let's relive those fights
                      1

                      Maidana scored high on ineffective combos and illegal tactics

                      2

                      May gave him a boxing lesson

                      As for Mosley almost ending May, let's take a look

                      "It was at that moment, Mosley knew he fcked up."
                      May went on and dominated the fight immediately after Shane landed that punch.
                      Buckled knees is not the same as a fight ender

                      I'll show you what a fight ender is

                      See the difference ?

                      2) Bruh....Lesser men beat PRIME Pac ! PBF makes easy work of him. That's why Pac refused to roll up his sleeve. Chose to take the fight to a courtroom instead
                      To add to the BS, Pac's boss, Bob wanted to build a new stadium for the event that was never going to happen
                      Let me ask you a question you will not answer....
                      Would YOU have run away from RANDOM BLOOD TESTS ?!?!?!

                      Pac had the "power" to make the fight happen and declined due to cowardice.

                      3) Neither did Holy
