    A. when pac fights today FANS want to see how will he BEAT his opponent.

    1. thing is if his opponent clash him it will be devastating fight for pac.

    and boxing fans goes on a WOW a fight.

    2. second one is if his opponent goes of def and counters him it will be a

    boring fight. like the JMM fight.

    B. when floyd fights today FANS want to see how he will BEAT his opponent.

    1. there is only one thing floyd does he box his opponent and stays at his

    skills on def and countering. it will be a boring fight but a great fight for boxing

    fan.

    2. it will be exiting fight if his opponent hit floyds alot. like the cotto fight

    when floyd got bloods on his nose...

      If you're emphasizing the worse RESUMES, then why mention being congressman? Being an F'ing congressman has nothing to do with the RESUMES when it comes to sport.

      Winning a garbage waste of time title in the 8th division at a catch-weight against a fighter who wasn't even rank in the top 50 at 154 does absolutely NOTHING for your resume when it comes to boxing.

      So don't sit there and talk about you emphasizing the word resume. And, then go to bring up irrelevant stats to describe resume.

      Anyways, back to the TS point of the thread. Are you surprised or not?

        So because Floyd wasn't chosen at FOTD but has more wins against Top 10 opponents than his other great fighters in his era, that isn't surprising??? It should be surprising going by your logic. You'd think Pac had the most.

        I was surprised because I thought all 4 would be closer.

          Both Pacquiao & Mayweather Jr were both awarded FOTY in different years.;
          Both been #1 PFP.

          But, Pacquiao, has been installed by Guinness Book of World Record, as the ONLY Boxing Champ been able to win 8 titles in different Weight Divisions!

          Pacquiao is the only Boxing Champ that is also an elected Congressman in his Country.
          what the hell does this have to do with anything?

            I was surprised Floyd has 15, but when you stop and think about it, he beat a lot of people while they were ranked high and had done well prior to fighting him.

                    It doesn't surprise me but it doesn't really mean anything.

                    Top 10? These guys are supposed to be the very best yet they can fight anyone in the top 10 and its considered noteworthy? For example - Shane that fought Pac was a joke, Gatti was a shopworn mess and Yuri Foreman is basically a bum.

                    Sorry but its basically just distorting the truth by putting these numbers up as having any kind of significance.

                      I am not surprised. All of them beat lots of good fighters and that's why they are respected by reasonable fans. Cotto is behind the rest but still beat lots of top 10 guys. I respect Ring ratings but sometimes they are slow to drop a guy out of the top 10 when he starts losing fights. Oscar has not ruined the Ring yet. People who say Canelo never beat a ranked fighter should know Rhodes was ranked #4 by Ring when Canelo KOed him. I think Ring ratings are usually pretty good, better than most.
