Mayweather's career vs pacquiao's career so far

[-Rab]

I would rather see who fought the most prime opponents.

The racist biased media who don't like Mayweather voted Pacquiao fighter of the decade. Real fans who been around the sport for a long time know the truth. Mayweather was fighter of the decade by far.

in your fantasy world yeah floyd is the fighter of the decade, but we are in the real world buddy, sorry bro i really like floyd too but he doesn't have the balls to show to the world that he could get the fighter of the decade. The only argument he has are coulda, shoulda, woulda...... lol.

Pacquiao's career is by far more impressive when you think about how many times in each of his WW fight's that he's been picked against to win. I think that's what makes his victories that more astonishing. He's been picked to lose by the majority in all 3-4 of them and he's dominated in every single one of them. Now tell me you can think that same way when Floyd came up? I don't think so...

Thats because Floyd is always favored because hes THAT good.

Duh.

Yes because he is that good. Now which is more impressive? A guy who is performing as expected or a guy who keeps exceeding his limitation? I would go for the latter. You?

racist? As much as his fellow american wants floyd to be a fighter of the decade can't vote him because it will be a blatantly bias, they know damn well that floyd didn't do anything to be even nominated as a fighter of the decade, but since floyd is an american they just put floyd behind pac as a fighter of the decade so that i wouldn't be too obvious that they are favorable towards floyd.

to be fair, mayweather would have to move to 160 to have a fighter actually be favored to beat him. i mean, everyone is genrally caught up in pacs rise from 106 to 147, but mayweather coming from 130 to 147 is still pretty good.

You would be hard pressed to find a fight where mayweather wouldnt be favored, even against pac, hes still the favorite and pac is the consensus guy whom everyone feels would just obliterate him.

You cant critisize floyd for being favored, because on the other hand, pac was favored against hatton, cotto and clottey. as well as david diaz, etc

Duh.

Not really...his opposition hasn't been THAT good. Can you say Pacquiao probably couldn't do the same or even better against the same opposition if their roles were reversed? I think Pacquiao would of killed Gattin in 1-3 rds tops, would of brutalized Baldomir, KO'd Judah sometime late, and still do the same to Hatton as he did...

How about this bro.

They both get the job done and are great fighters.

No?

But it wasn't the same kind of favoring. A lot picked Hatton/Cotto/Clottey/even Diaz to be too big and too much for Pac going up in weight. You had to watch to really see if he bit off too much to chew each time. But each time he went in there and dominated his opponents which made it more grand. Look, when I pick whose gonna win between a Floyd fight and his opponent, it's not because Floyd is that damn good, it's because his opponent is that damn bad or perfect for him. He said it himself, he has to make the right business decision, and that equals to least risk with more reward. Pac has gone time and time again into risk with reward. That will be remembered in history no doubt.
