Floyd Mayweather is a slightly bigger draw in the USA because he is american and thrives off of the 24/7 episodes.
Manny Pacquiao is a bigger world figure, outside the united states.
Floyd Mayweather fought a better version of Oscar, however, Oscars style (mainly his jab) gave Mayweather problems.
Manny Pacquiao fought a better version of Marquez, however, Marquez counter punching style and combination punching gave Pacquiao problems with his offensive style.
Pacquiaos style was great to dismantle an ageing DLH (see other mobile southpaws, Whitaker, giving Oscar problems even in his prime)
Mayweathers style, regardless of size, was going to give Marque problems. Mayweather being the lengthier and quicker of the 2, sat back and forced the shorter Marquez on the attack, something Marquez is not good at. (see Marquez vs Gainer, and how hard of a time he has being the aggressor)
Ricky Hattons face first style was perfect for a puncher like Pacquiao.
Ricky Hattons face first style was stylistically harder for Mayweather who likes to fight at a calculated pace.
On paper, Mayweathers counter punching style is going to find a home hitting Pacquiao, who is often wreckless at times.
Pacquiaos extreme offense and angles could throw Mayweather out of his comfort zone, as Pacquiao additionally is a superior offensive fighter than Hatton and is physically tougher/hits harder. (Hatton, Castillo)
tell me if you agree or disagree, except for the ppv BS, thats just my opinion.
