      This I agree with. marciano was the rocky marciano of the HW division. Only good wins came against fighters shot to ****, one of which was giving him a boxing lesson before he landed a hail mary.

        everyone knows styles make fights. in past eras fighters fought the best without picking and choosing so they had to take on fighters of all styles. and if they couldnt deal with a certain style they lost, in todays era if u cant deal with a certain style u avoid it.

        pacquiao looked great beating the same type of oponents over and over, meanwhile ducking technical fighters. marquez beat him twice and thats the only world class boxer he fought. morales wasnt a world class technical fighter, he had lots of flaws and got taken to school by zahir raheem.

        when pac moved to 135 there was lineal champ and ATG joel casamayor, 3 belt champ nate campbell and david "who?" diaz with a paper title. pac fought the straight forward brawler then got the hell up out of the division.

        thats what hes done his whole career, thats why he wont fight floyd. he wants no part of a skilled boxer. now im not sayinghe would get taken to school if he fought one, i think so but i dont know. i mean he woudnt duck em for no reason, eighter way i cant rank him higher than that until he steps up. george foreman would look like the best ever if he fought 10 joe fraziers and retired, hearns would do the same with duran. but they didnt, pac does with his version of a tailor made oponent.

          A win over Manny and another good fighter like Martinez or Williams would put him in front of Manny.
          I agree, though I do think they should both already be top 25. I would have Manny slightly ahead of Floyd. I think if manny beat floyd, then manny would be a top 10 if floyd beats him then same thing probably. i think manny is smaller than floyd so i feel manny beating floyd is more impressive than floyd beating manny.

            his greatest win is against a 38 year old mosley for god sake.....
            Age is nothing but a number. And he didn't just beat Mosley, he dominated him.

            Mosley is past prime but far from shot.

              I would say from the 20-25 range...It's really a toss-up to have him ahead or behind JCC but I think after last night's performace I could see anyone having him as high as 20.

              is he ahead of Manny? IMO, yes he is.

                I am sorry I stop reading right there.

                Really? Beat him twice? That is not what I remember.

                That line right there shows you have an agenda. And, you are an idiot.

                And, for the record Pac has fought a more versatile fight and a more slick fighter that Floyd has ever fought.

                  He's as good as the opponents he has fought. His biggets wins are against much older fighters, De La Hoya and Mosley. De La Hoya almsot beat him at an old age and a Mosley beat a young De La Hoya. So what ever you put him he's below them, because you can't ever put him above them because he beat just their name when they had no game.
