Proof Positive Mayweather is deserving of the p4p title

Proof positive Mayweather? Hes positive for PED's? That so ironic.

I take no credit for the following (commentary from the p4p page on this site) but it seems to make sense...

Facts are facts and based on results in the ring only (not media or fan voting...) Can you still say Pacquiao deserves a higher ranking?

Titles - Pacquiao has made title claims in more weight classes generally (seven) and lineally (a record four) than Floyd (five and three).

Wins over current and former titlists - Floyd (15) Pac (12)

Wins over current and former lineal World Champions - Floyd (8) Pac (5)

Wins in title fights - Floyd (19) Pac (13) as well as one loss and 2 draws.

Common opponenets - Draw... wins over Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton, and Juan Manuel Marquez. What each man took out of those foes, and what mitigating circumstances might have existed, are open for debate. The results are not.

Thinking from the perspective of a fan, Pacquiao might rate ahead. His fights are usually more thrilling, an electricity not seen since the heyday of Mike Tyson.
Thinking clinically, Mayweather is the best technician since the prime of Pernell Whitaker.

Where they have been on the scale is weighed against where they are right now and the right now wins. Where they are is Welterweight and both have shown to belong physically in the class but Floyd, of note, didn’t need any catch weights for his best win in class. Mayweather is the best Welterweight in the world until proven otherwise and in a choice between two active Welterweights, that’s enough for number one here.

Floyd came back from retirement and fought a guy that belonged at least 2 divisions lower and then fought a guy that was rusty and old. Floyd has stated that he is back vacationing. So if Floyd is not active then he is not actively the #1 P4P fighter, no matter how you break things down.

You need to be active, meaning not stating that "I want to vacation for the rest of 2010" or his other comment was "retire for another 2 years".

So, hands down it's Manny. Manny is the ACTIVE #1 P4P fighter.

lol. Looks good though.

Funny part is they only mention things that Floyd has done better but forget to mention

The FOTD award

The amount of lineal chips won

And FOTY awards won

Only racists believe Mayweather isn't No.1


Mayweather is the greatest fighter of the past 15 years. Period.

[Spray_resistant]

This is all over with now, I think you better just move along TS.......

[EMACULATE]

Floyd coming out of retirement, fought two aging champs one from Lightweight and another from welterweight;

When he fought Shane Mosley then ranked #3P4P, and won by UD,

Floyd was suddenly elevated to #1PFP,

By-passing then #1P4P Pacman!

There ought to be Main CRITERIA in the selection of #1PFP Boxer!

When we say "Pound for Pound", the Best should be the one who won the most number of World Titles in different weight Divisions!

A "world record" is more difficult to accomplIsh than a "Undefeated record"!

Today there's only one boxer who holds the 7 world titles in diff. divisions;

While there are many up and coming Boxers toting undefeated records!

prettyBOY isn't the only boxer with UNDEFEATED records!

Is it Floyd who is scared or is it Manny. Lets see
Floyd scared of who Margarito and Cotto maybe.
Pac scared of Mosley and Marquez, Bradley, Soto, Alexander, Berto, Holt, Campbell, Witter and Diaz. Instead he fought Hatton and D Diaz.

You tell me who is scared.

PBF was the best for what he did in the past. But pac has been doing more of late. His record of late is better than PBFs.

Pac is the best now, until PBF does more. SInce his retirement he has beat JMM and SSM. I think many fighters on their day could have beat JMM and SSM.
So that is not enough work to be the best.
