Mayweather has to fight elite welters, but Pac doesn't have to fight elite JWWs?

    lol double standard?

    "I'm the best ever"

    "I'm not fighting to prove whos the best"



    yea, its probably time for people to pipe down now about this so called double standard.



    How come some people just don't understand that people that continually seek challenges is always going to get more praises than someone who Floyds them?

      Before Floyd retired he took on De La Hoya and Hatton. This was after the Judah and Baldomir fights (who at the time, were top welterweights).

      Now comparing with Pacquiao. He beat David Diaz at 135, then went up for super fights with DLH and Hatton, just like Mayweather. And again, I don't blame Pac for taking those fights. But no one said "Oh Pac has to beat an elite LW, or clean out LW or JWW" did they? No, because people like Manny Pacquiao.


      you are an idiot dude. why clean out the division when he is beating the likes of miguel cotto and getting BIGGER AND BETTER THINGS. what would it do for his legacy to beat tim bradley? or would miguel cotto winning his 7th title in 7th division make more sense. floyd fans always back up and say about all about the business. WELL PAC IS ALL ABOUT THE FIGHT AND THE LEGACY. FIGHTING THE BEST AND MAKING CHALLENGES TO HIMSELF.

      well obviously that doesn't make sense to floyd fans. cause they don't think risking everything for legacy makes sense. to move forward to be an ATG. stick to floyd and don't talk about pac. floyd fans have no logic. PERIOD. crack heads like senior. dip****s.

        Floyd has been ducking the bests of the welterweight division for years.

        Pacquiao just fought his second fight at welterweight.


        You guys know that very well, but as good *****s you are, you try to discredit other fighters to give Floyd excuses and make him look not so bad.

          lol because pacquiao is fighting welters.. sure he should be fighting jr welters but pacquiao is going above and beyond that and fighting even bigger guys which is much more impressive.. it would be like Mayweather fighting at jr middle and middleweight.

            Pacquiao is jumping around in weight within his last three fights. Mayweather has been at 147 longer. However, Floyd does gets criticized more than other fighters, but it's clear why.

                  Stop, just stop it right now.

                  That was the entire curriculum for why the Margarito and Cotto fights never came off.

                    there is no fucking double standards.

                    floyd was being asked to fight fighters he was favored to win against.

                    pacquaio destroyed fighters he wasn't suppose to beat.

                    about a year ago, pacquiao was fighting against marquez at 130. he just beat one of the top welterweights.

                    floyd also fought marquez, but made him climb almost two divisions at a catchweight he didn't even make.

                    even though they fought the same fighter, the circumstances when they fought them is different.

                    pacquiao gets more credit for beating de lahoya, and hatton cause people never expected him to beat them (when he was at 130), much less dominate them.

                    cotto was someone floyd never had the balls to face.
