Attribute for attribute, Pacquiao is more physically gifted than Mayweather

[Resilient]

With that one statement, you killed ANY credibility that you might've had now or EVER!

No one doubts that Mayweather is the best at defence, but Pacquiao's defense isn't as bad as many claim, his guard is pretty effective actually.

One natural attribute that PAC has and PBF will never ever be able to afford, and that's having some big cojones!

So big that he declined to fight the Mosley that Floyd fought or Cotto at 154 like Floyd huh?

I've always been confused by people that say Pacquiao has more speed than Mayweather. Yes Pacquiao has speed but Mayweather is quick. Mayweather's punches are usually alot quicker than his opponents has time to react. The success he did have against Maidana were those quick accurate punches that Maidana didn't even try to react to... Pacquiao throws his combos with alot of speed but I don't know if that's more effective that Mayweather's quickness.

The one attribute that Pacquiao has that I think will do well is he is more relentless than most of Mayweather's opponents. Pacquiao will keep coming (not necessarily pressuring) even if he is getting hit. That was one of the things that gave Mayweather problems against Maidana.

Pacquiao's defense is good, the difference is that he's willing to exchange with guys and get into wars on the inside. He takes risks, where as Floyd plays it safe for 12 rounds.

Mayweather is a superior boxer, Pacquiao is a superior fighter. One is picky about his opponents, the other will try to fight whoever bob puts in front of him. I have a feeling that mayweather is either going to lose in the ring or loser in life :-( and I think he would rather be a loser in life, sad to say

He declined Mosley as his first legit fight in his 7th division, instead fought Cotto whos pretty good himself. Floyd asks for CWs in his 5th division lol

If were talking strickly about whos the better physical athlete is Pacquiao by far

Pacquiao is in the same level as Roy Jones Jr and Lebron James as an athlete

I don't even think Floyd is a better physical athlete than Malinaggi and Floyd has hand problems in every fight. Khan is a far better athlete than Floyd is

Pacquiao is also the better boxing athlete offensively and I don't think anyone seriously debates that. Defensively I'd also say Pacquiao is better since he has better footwork and headmovement and doesn't rely on getting backed up to the ropes and clinching. And people forget that when you roll a punch, your still getting hit which does cause damage

The only true way to score defense is if you slip a punch completely or block a punch with your gloves or forearms. Punches on the elbows and biceps count as damaging blows imp

These guys are foolish to even consider pacquiao on Floyds level. Pac is a promoter made fighter, nothing speacial about him.Pac knows it,bob arum knows it. Pac was a bum until he started juicing. Once the spot light hit him and folks started seeing red flags,, he got clean and immediately got beat then ktfo for the third time in his professional career.hes predictable in his punch selection,he has no head movement and his foot work is borderline ******. He looks like a complete idiot in the ring, and who has he beat, where are the kos. Manny is a hype job of all hype jobs.

Tell pac the great to fight Keith Thurman or canelo or even madana At 165 pounds like floyd did. Also take random blood test.Be sure to come in at 148 like Floyd aswell. Then we have a discussion. Until then manny is a joke, fighting at catch weights and winning vacant titles that was basically given to him. Fighting guys coming off worst career performances ,some even off ko lost. You'd have to be an idiot to even rank pac in the top ten. He is not even the best in his weight divison, so please don't even mention p4p.
