As far as not fighting anybody, relatively Pacquiao has fought more (quantity) and fought more quality opponents than Mayweather over a large spectrum of weight classes and styles.

        Mayweather created a "niche" in his weight division after he has tapered into a comfortable weight and didn't want to go beyond that because he doesn't like taking risks. Pacquiao relatively went up and down inorder to accomodate what it is store for him likewise.

        I also believe in TIMING. As Pacquiao was climbing the weight ladder he fought the best in that current time and moving on. Mayweather could have even gone a bit higher as far as Junior Middleweight or Middleweight and still be able to compete with his size, but no staying put and only fighting an average of 2 fights a year most specially in the last decade.

        So I respectfully disagree.
        You mean he got selected as an opponent in the smaller weights yet his fans treat it as if he were doing the selecting of opponents. Once he became the one doing the selecting, the range of opponents and quality is not superior to Floyd at all.

        David Diaz? Margs at 150? cotto 145? those are not the best.

        Interesting, Floyd keeping himself in shape and not bloating up in weight is now a negative.

        Look dude you can disagree all you want, but until you show me tapes of Manny fighting all these great ww's , Jww's and LW's it's all just BS.

          mosley was past it by the time too. a prime mosley vs. pac could never have happened.

          fighting marg at 150 instead of 147 helped marg, the bigger guy.
          Then don't say or pretend what Fabie did. That's all I'm saying. Lets stop acting like Manny fought everyone when he didn't.

            Yes, because he was loaded to the gills. I agree with you.

                  Despite everything, I'd love to see Floyd tested and see his ass challenged and dig down deep. I know he will. But Pac is not the one do that at all. With his reckless aggression, he will be beaten up good and Koed. If he boxes, he'll be outboxed and still KOed. Pac cannot win this fight. Won't even be close.

                      I think it will. Algieri has to win a few more titles, but I think he will. I think he can beat Crawford. Thats not to say he will, rather, he can if he has a good gameplan.
