what do you think of BS P4P ranking?

[paniki]

one of the writer's contention why he placed floyd over pac is that floyd never fought at catchweight:

"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."

i think the writer missed the point that manny started at 105 lbs and his fight with cotto was 145... that is a 40 lbs jump. mayweather started his career at 130 lbs and his heaviest was at 154 lbs. that's only a 24 lbs jump.

40+ lbs to 24 lbs!!! come on!!!!

You do know that Mayweather was a light flyweight in the Amateurs at the same age as Pac was when he started his Pro career.

whatever.... you gotta admit i made a good point right? imagine... pac started at 105. if he made the same 24 lbs jump, which is floyd's heaviest weight difference (from 130 lbs - 154 lbs), and that would land him (pac) fighting at superfeatherweight (130 lbs) at least. pac never asked for catchweights only until at least fighting at welterweight.

now if floyd will do the same amount of weight pac jumped (total of at least 140 lbs) then floyd could have at least be fighting at lightheavyweight. floyd never fought beyond the superwelterweight division.

so this is my question:
does floyd have the balls to fight at the light heavyweight division without asking for a catchweight? honestly i dont think so.

pac: started at 105 lbs; heaviest fight 147 lbs. (a difference of 42 lbs.) next fight will be at 151 lbs (a difference of 46 lbs!)

floyd: started at 130 lbs; heaviest fight at 154 lbs. (a difference of 24 lbs)

ah ok... you mean amateurs with highly padded gloves, shorter rounds, maximum of 4 rounds, and, oh, head gear? yah right!

pac at 16 was fighting guys older than him - 3 minute rounds, mimimum of 6 round per bouts in his first few fights, and, hey wait - without head gear!

i got your point ;-)

They were around the same size at the same age, Mayweather was smart and polished his skills before turning pro.

and mayweather was fighting amateurs, you said? LOL and of course you do know pac was fighting professional boxing already.

floyd = shorter rounds, 4 rounds per bout, pillows for gloves, HEADGEAR
pac = well, you do know how professional boxing looks like, right?

AND? You was trying to make out that Pacquiao was much smaller when he wasn't, if Mayweather chose to start his pro career at the same age as Pac he would have moved up the same amount of weight.
