    They're the consensus top 2 guys in the World.
    That is true...most do have them as the top 2.

    However, I see no reason at this point to have Pac ahead of Mayweather. Coming off a number of fights that were against guy's with no chance and then fighting a smaller guy at your own comfortable weight to prove a point, and then losing to that guy in most people's eye's, is not the resume of the #1 P4P fighter.

        He is actually pretty good with a very solid resume.

        Doesn't do anything great but does everything well. A versatile fighter. The only great attribute he has is his intangible, will to win.

          I know you dont care for anyone other than Floyd.
          JMM begged for a fight with Pac so of course JMM needed to come up to a weight class of Pacs choosing which wasnt 147 so helped JMM.

          JMM is one of the best in the world so of course him making life hard for Pac, Pac still deserves no1!

          Floyd beating a ancient SSM and sucka punching Ortiz is not a good body of work to be deserving of anything. I wont even mention bringing JMM up 2 divisions because it is not a big achievement. If he rematched the better, more acclimatized to the weight JMM people would give Floyd more credit.

            This has nothing to do with Floyd. it has to do with Marquez outboxing Pacquiao and getting robbed, Manny does not deserve the #1 p4p spot.

              JMM is indeed one of the best in the world, but being brought back up to 147 and being 38, there was virtually nobody giving him a shot at being competitive. It was supposed to be a showcase for Pac to put the JMM ghost to bed and instead it turned out to be a nightmare scenario where JMM put on a boxing clinic and was robbed...that and fighting a few stiffs before it isn't #1 IMO.

              JMM could weigh in at 160, it wouldn't make much of a difference against Mayweather. The style and skill-set of Mayweather kills him regardless, weight played very little part in that fight.

                  Stop defining JMM by his weight class. He is one of the best fighters in the world who knows how to fight Pac (something we dont know Floyd can do)

                  Does Sergio struggling with people not anywhere near JMMs level mean Sergio dont deserve no3 in the world? Floyd hasnt done anything to be no1 so stop crying that pac is no1.

                  Oh i see floyd is deserving of no1 off of JMMs back. Cos Floyd beat bloated JMM he deserves no1 am i right? Well Floyd hasnt shown he can beat Pac, so he should be happy with no2.
