    P - M
    1. Barrera>Corrales
    2. Marquez>Castillo
    3. Cotto>Mosley
    4. Morales>Hernandez
    5. De La Hoya < De La Hoya
    6. Hatton = Hatton
    7. Clottey>Judah

    Then factor in that Pacquiao beat MAB twice, Morales twice, and fought Marquez twice.

    Manny's resume is much better.

      If Pac's resume isn't extra-ordinary, and you consider his resume slightly better than Floyd's, then would it be safe to say that you consider both their resume's ordinary?

      If that is the case, then why are Manny and Floyd jr considered p4p # 1 and # 2 respectively? (or #2 and #1 depending on your preference)

      Or would it be safe to assume that you consider everybody else's resume less than ordinary?

      Not trying to diss you or anything, I just think you may be too hard on both fighters IMO.

        No need to be defensive mate, I do not consider Pacquaio's resume extra-ordinary like the media or some posters were making it look. Credit were credit is due he has very very good resume and slightly better resume than Mayweather IMO.

          pac fought cotto who beat mosley & is with top rank. pac & top rank dont have to share the money with gbp while fighting a guy in cotto who has a bigger fanbase.

          why risk pac when you can make more money risking it against your own guy.

          As for roach saying mosley was too good, that was roach way of placating mosley. roach was just tying to make shane feel better with the "too good" comment. Its a way of saying no nicely. If roach told shane you are too good, that leaves shane no choice but to drop it.

          The shane that showed up to fight floyd would have been murked by manny.


          shane is done as a elite fighter. the way he gassed out after the 3rd round proves this.


          why do you think he's fighting sergio mora now?



          shane is done.
          What he said is true-Manny straight up dodged Mosely-who ko'd Margarito-who ko'd Cotto...
          By the time Manny fought Cotto,he only looked OK in the Jennings fight....(after getting beaten to a pulp by Margarito)
          No need to build him up at this stage of his career. Freddie Roach knows why they wanted Cotto instead of Shane,it's weird that you guys made a different conclusion.

            They both have decent resumes,but one guy has more "question marks" next to his opponents names-especially the condition they were in and the direction their careers were headed...

                I think we both know it isn't Mayweather's resume that has as many problems...

                      Mayweather only fights people when they are ready to be taken, usually after a loss, or if they are smaller, older (past prime)

                      He even had to take his shine off the Marquez win by giving himself even more of an advantage at the weigh in, people were not accepting that as a legit fight anyway, but the fact he still! had to do what he did and throw any props he might of got out the window, proves what kinda fighter he is, one who lacks true self belief so seeks every advantage possible, hence him ducking so many challenges in recent years.
