Comments Thread For: Naazim Richardson: Era's Best is Pacquiao, Not Mayweather

[zzat]

"if neither one of them fight each other, they are still going to consider Pacquiao the greatest of this era."

Naazim is right about that, and the key word there is THEY - meaning that he is not one of those people. The headline is misleading. Pacquiao is a great fighter and I wish the fight with Mayweather is made so that all this talk can stop.

On the contrary I think Floyd has taken dangerous fights even if when you look at them now they look like they were not.
1st - His fight with the late Diego Corrales(RIP), everyone knows that Chico was undefeated at the time and had a very high KO ratio.
2nd - The Castillo fights 1 and 2. Mayweather did not have to take the second fight, I mean everyone knows what happened in the first fight. If he was scared to loose he would not have taken the second fight.
Look at the Mosley fight for another example, up until the end of the second round people thought Mosely would really test Mayweather but if you ask those same people today they'll tell you that fight was too easy for Mayweather. The same will happen once the Pacquiao fight is done and dusted.

he said "they" (the pinoys) will rank manny higher..but floyd would beat manny in his opinion

[Jerzz]

What he meant is Pac accomplished more.

Pacqioua is the greatest of this era no doubt. He beat the guys PBF beat much better.

PBF has ducked, or if i want to be diplomatic, not made many fights he should have made. WHile on the other hand Pac has fought everyone he has supposed to have fought.

What exactly does beating another fighter's opponent mean and/or prove?
