    So lets say he beats Pacquiao, then does what after that, nothing? but can proclaim himself to be the best of his era and a greater fighter than Pacquiao ? i dont think so. He will have to fight other challenges before then. Knowing him he will probably fight Shane when he is another how many years older and that will seal a fake career for him.
    Pacquiao and Paul Williams stylistically are Mayweather's biggest threats. He won't be considered "Greater" only "Better". Pacquiao will still be the more accomplished of the two.

      Agree but i bet that wont be the thought process after the fight. People will overreact imo.

      You are a real Mayweather fan because you keep it real.

        Another thing I want to mention. Can we really say Pacquiao has faught more variety of styles? Has Pacquiao faced an opponent like Joan Guzman, one who could counter punch, move, match his hand speed and defend well against the ropes? One who isn't gonna stand infront of him...because even Marquez who is a master counter puncher doesn't move.

              Think about it. If Pacquiao wins that will surely elevate him to god like status? if Floyd wins he will have just won a one of fight against a great opponent but Floyd has not been consistently fighting the best to come across a potential bad style match, so you have to keep it in perspective if he does win. The reason i say that is because i know a **** load of people will be claiming him to be a better fighter when that does not exactly tell the right story imo.
              Nice excuse to hate on Floyd. I give you props, but all these guys he so called ducked were not that great of fighters and what kind of style is a technical fighter like Floyd going to have all these problems with? He's faced all different types and has won them all. At this point it isn't about the style, it will take a great fighter to beat Mayweather and the only one EVER qualified to beat him is Pac. This is it, if Pac can't beat him no body can. Not now at least. How does it feel hating one of the greatest fighters in your life time and there's no one out there that can whoop his ass for you? Its clear it bothers you thats why you started this thread. You also know Manny most likely wont be winning this one because you know Floyd is the real deal. That must really hurt. lol

                i know what u mean man...

                its like hearns' KO of duran... mr. hearns did get credit for beating an ATG but he is simply nowhere near duran in any credible P4P ATG list...

                i really feel PBF will have an easier time to beat MP than vise versa bcoz of the styles...

                thats why i would give more props to MP if he wins over PBF...

                more than the props i would give PBF if its the other way around...

                Yep. Floyd says he wont credit if he wins, they will say he was supposed to win because he is the bigger man.

                Its Mayweather himself who is strongly of the opinion that the bigger man should always be able to beat the smaller fighter, that is one of the reasons he is so critical of Leonard losing to Duran, and probably why he made sure JMM was considerably smaller than him, that fight was not long after he cherry picked the smaller Hatton from 140.

                The guy is unreal with his inconsistency.

                  thing is, mayweather is a bad match up for EVERYONE, he's just better, plain and simple. he won't get all that much props because he's expected to win convincingly at that

                    You are the typical idiot im talking about who will be singing from the roof tops if Mayweather wins that he is a better fighter because he won a head to head match up.

                    Haters like him will never give Mayweather credit...
                    But who cares..


                    You are right there. I reserve special praise for fighters who go up against the best available consistently!!! because that is how determine greatness, not cherry picking the fights that are more advantageous for you to win because of style and size.

                      ****** thread, whoever the winner is deserves huge props, i don't care who it is

                      It is attitudes of fans like you which makes megafights hard to make happen. What boxer wants to fight if everyone is gonna diss him whether he wins or loses
