    You proved just what a Pac dlckrider you are with the first line comparing the still relevant 154 lb Oscar that Floyd fought to the drained 145lb corpse that Pac fought. Please get outta here with that! 7-3 or 8-4 is "almost beat"...I repeat....YDKSAB!!!! Pac jumped 3 weight divisons in name only. He had been weighing in as a full welterweight for years before he fought ODH..so there goes another fail! All Manny proved in that fight was that its not very difficult to outbox a drained corpse.

    He did better against Mosely? The guy who made him look like an amateur at times? Who he couldn't even cut off the ring against? Ok? Hatton? The guy who Floyd had KO'd and was never the same? Got it! Cotto? I'm sure he did look better. He fought him after he lost his confidence from the Margarito fight and looked terrible in subsequent fights. Roach even admitted he wasn't the same and yet they STILL needed a catch weight!! After the 2nd Margarito fight, Cotto had his confidence back(which he even said himself) and he was at a comfortable weight. That is why they ducked the 154 Cotto that Floyd fought! By the way, did you see what Pac looked like after fighting a catch weight Cotto and what Floyd looked like fighting Cotto at a comforable weight? I rest my case! Never said that Floyd is a boxing God, but even the most ardent Pac fans don't(or at least most of them) don't ever think that Pac out boxes Floyd!
    Oscar fought at 150 before the Pac fight at welterweight < Floyd a 2x champ at 154 can't fight Canelo there without weight draining him after he said to everybody he will never weight drain his opponent. So Pac fighting a weight drained Oscar was bad but when he weight drained Canelo was good. LMAO!

    Floyd faked his retirement than fighting a young prime Cotto and Mosley while ducking Margarito at the same time like a plague. A decade later you are so proud Floyd finally beat Oldsley and Cotton.

      This is just wrong. His boxing skill is excellent, as is his footwork. When you try to punch someone dashing forward is all you can really do if your a human being.
      Are you saying he looks clumsy chasing his opponents around the ring or something? Well youre footwork isn't going to look that good. Can you imagaine Floyd trying to chase and attack people around the ring and look how ridiculous his footwork would look like?

        Find a post where I said it was "good" to fight Canelo at 152? He should've fought him at the full 154 lb limit and we could've avoided people like you having something to say about it. Even though you haters still would've found some way to discredit it. But, if u are comparing Manny's win against 145 Oscar to Floyd's win against 152 Canleo, then I will say it for the 3rd time.....YDKSAB!

        Fake retirement? Floyd had fought at a high level for most of his life, I don't think he had the desire anymore and it was time to step away for a while and see if it returned. Haters like you continue to spew that "ducked" nonsense when the facts say something different. ARUM HIMSELF said that Floyd was willing to fight Cotto and Margarito if the offer was right...It wasn't! Cotto's didn't want the fight at 140 and since has said that he was NEVER OFFERED THE FIGHT AND NEVER ASKED FOR THE FIGHT! Mosley declined the fight with Mayweather not once, but 2x! So, again, how did he "duck" them. The hate is strong with you. You even feel the need to lie just to make Floyd look bad.

        Isn't it funny that, that same "Oldsley" that Floyd fought, Pac wanted nothing to do with??

          Pac's shot until proven otherwise
          outboxing Rios wasn't the proving ground to show he's "back"
          it's natural for people to doubt Pac's skills now
          that and his legs, stamina, chin, speed, and everything else

            Problem is, as work rate increases, skills look worse because you are tired and more open to be hit etc...

            Pac has skills but has lapses where he just wants to brawl.

                  Floyd fought Canelo at a CW. Fruad even went against his prior statements about catch weights !

                    Floyd himself said Manny was too good for him. "He has to be on something, there is no way he can be that good, hes doing things nobody has ever done before".

                      Key words are that Floyd fought him, even at a catchweight. Pac needed to wait until Oldsley lost and drew with a journeyman to dared fight him.
