    So Pacquiao fights tailormade foes but Mayweather doesn't?

    LOL Floyd Mayweather opponents are so tailormade for him its not even funny, yet he gets praised for out boxing these slow flat footed guys, while Pacquiao knocks out tailormade guys and they don't get impressed and bring up the tailormade thing for the reason he knocked them out.

    Anyone notice how the floyd fans always call a Pacquiao opponent tailormade but never say that about Floyds opposition?

    neither of them fights "tailor made" opponents
    they've both fought guys who have varied strengths
    Pac's more of an attacker, so he puts more hurt on his opponents
    when you don't just win, but beat guys up, it's easier to skewer
    people can just say he has no legs/chin/defense, etc
    Pac's got a better resumed than Floyd does though
    it's not about the styles anyway, it's about the merit

        Agreed.

        But its always funny how anytime Pacquiao has an opponent he is tailormade for him, yet they never say it about Floyds opponents.

                In your eyes and in the eyes of the other haters on this board, the only Mayweather opponent who is not tailor made for him is the one he hasn't fought. You and others thought Alvarez would beat Mayweather senseless and Mayweather was scared of him --- until the fight was signed. Now, you claim that Alvarez is too inexperienced and will be weight drained fighting at 152.

                  Nah. They're just lying to themselves. They're clearly impressed with many of Pac's wins. They can't believe it. He must be cheating. These are weight-drained fighters meant to lose to Pacman. Yet they're impressed they can't believe Pac beating weight-drained cherrypicked fighters. He must be cheating. Hehe... turned out that their hero is the biggest cheat in boxing. He got away with it three times.

                    Daggum doggit, you work hard at it don't you. Jerry Lewis also though he always had to be funny both on and off screen and he was funny on neither. Slow down.
