    Floyd gets his KOs from cumulative punching.

    Nowhere near Donaire's class at punch power even at the lower weight classes.
    Floyd never fought below 130, donaire is fighting at 118. When nonito knocks people out at 130 and leaves them in a state then i will admit i'm wrong.

        I'd say no.
        Pure nastiness Nonito has to get his weight up to get to that level

          floyd is the more complete fighter, but donaire is something special- especially when he gets in the zone and starts bouncing around and creating unreal angles while avoiding punches.

            Yea, Nonito was always a bit of a badass. But once he started using Contes, he probably became the hardest p4p puncher in boxing. He literally dented Montiels skull, knocked the guy out cold.

            Knocking people out cold, and denting skulls at 118 pounds is pretty unbelievable.

              Floyd is one of the only fighters in history who throw maybe 30 punches a round and have his opponents menatlly fatigue by round 4. Look at Marquez and Shanes face from round 4 on they knew the fight was over it was nothing they can do to win.

                Check Siderenko's face after 3 rounds.

                A masterclass performance, only in 2nd gear.

                Donaire has said he is willing to fight anybody, and he wants to, a far cry from Floyd.

                Any of the top fighters at 118lbs can fight Donaire, they just have to want it.

                  Floyds at the pinnacle he chooses who wants to fight he's who everybody shooting at he's the hunted not the hunter; when he was coming up he fought any and everybody. Nonito is in hunter mode.

                    Too early? Donaire's nearing 30.

                      That's what I'm most interested in finding out. Donaire seems gifted at the lighter weights where he bully's naturally smaller fighters and walks through their punches, which just so happen to be clean and flush.

                      Mayweather is more gifted by landslides just by the fact that he also was able to knock out and stop opponents at lighter weight, but also being able to outbox his bigger foes.
