      As for the actual thread I think Floyd's win is better because of the circumstances surrounding both fights as they happened. Correct me if I'm wrong but it was a consensus that Pacquiao was expected to win the fight.
      While some people thought Floyd was never even going to fight Canelo.

      In the Mayeather vs Canelo fight, we saw Floyd walking Canelo down at some point of the fight. That was something not many of us thought was gonna happen.
      There's not really even a triangle theory in the original argument point Larry said that Dirk addressed. I think Larry misunderstood what Dirk was trying to say lol.

        Bradley was a top 10 p4p fighter so he was the better win. Floyds was a CW win.

          Both were quite substantial favourites in the fight.

          I think it's close. I really don't rate Bradley the way some do but he'd been in with better fighters and was more proven. Canelo was vastly inexperienced at that level bar one close-ish fight with Trout. And it was at a catchweight.

            It's close

            Hard to say

            But I do think p4p Bradley > Canelo

            Stylistically Bradley poses more resistance to PAC than cement feet Canelo did to floyd

              Floyd over Canelo because of the Clinic... Pacquiao was expected to beat Bradley because he had already defeated him on the first encounter even if the judges stole it from him..

              so Floyd beating an undefeated Jr.MW unified Champion was a better win over Bradley 2 because Pac had already defeated him previously

                    Canelo was and is still a top 10 p4p fighter

                      He was p4p number 3 after the Marquez win

                      Who has Marquez lost to at welterweight that isn't good?

                      Stop being so simple and looking at things at face value to suit your d1kriding agenda

                      "He got bad record at welter doe"

                      How about you mention that the guy has gotten more power since working with memo heredia. Don't take my word for it
