        Pacquiao is already the best fighter of this era.

            No, Pac already is.

            No matter what happens in the head to head matchup,

            just like Tarver and Jones,

            nobody will say Antonio was a better fighter than Roy, despite what happened when they faced off.

              Why does Mayweather have to fight the WW's but Pacquiao doesn't? They both went up the scales to get titles, but for some reason Pacquiao doesn't have to defend his titles or clean out divisions to get the respect, but Mayweather does.

                No. Only if Pacquiao wins then yes. If Mayweather wins I would say no

                  Leaning towards yes, but if Mayweather squeks by on points, he won't get past Pacquiao as best fighter of the era.

                    At this point, people have given up on cleaning out divisions.

                    Floyd still hasn't fought a decent welter in the entire time he has been there.

                    Baldomir, what top flight welter doesn't beat this clown?

                    Judah, who hasn't beaten this clown?

                    Pac, in one fight has already destroyed a fighter who is twice the caliber of Baldo and Judah combined.


                    Why doesn't Mayweather have to face tough opponents again?



                    You're not seeing why Manny gets respect and Floyd doesn't.

                    People that usually crave respect and expect everyone to give it to them, just because,

                    never get that respect.

                    Its like giving yourself a nick name, its lame.


                    People respect Pac because he just goes out, shows and proves. Doesn't ***** about this, doesn't cry about that, just gets the fights signed, sealed and then he delivers.

                    Floyd yaps, "I'm gonna murder him, its going to be a massacre, its going to be exciting", and then proceeds to throw half a punch a minute.

                    "bu, but, this is boxing not knockouts"
