This was Pacquiao's best chance.

Is it safe to say that no version of Pac beats Mayweather?

The knockout that Marquez gave Pacman showed first in the Bradley fight then absolutely in Mayweather fight. PTSD or some thing.
I really think the 2007 or 2010 Manny version could have been a Mayweather vs Maidana I competitive but still a Mayweather win. Oh well, Manny is still my favorite fighter.
I guess Mayweather's TBE is legit now. F U C K! I'm still salty with Pacman not throwing caution out of the window.

Floyd still wins, but a more competitive fight.

Pre Marquez KO would have outworked Floyd.
I dont understand why people are getting so hung up on some sort of schooling or total dominance, there were a lot of close rounds which Floyd nicked from a few single shots, a little more emphasis from Manny and he would have taken them.
People should re watch the Marquez fight to see how much more daring Manny was, and his willingness to take one to get one, he was much more nimble as well and that was not even his prime.

Since the KO he's been tentative, he would have thrown caution to the wind in 2010.
Woulda thrown caution to the wind in 2010? Maybe, but he woulda got countered much more and remember, Floyd was younger, fresher and much better at 2010, if you look at Floyd' performance against Maidana last year and his Performance against Marquez or Mosley in 2010, you can see a HUGE difference, although Floyd wasn't active at all at 20009 2010. he was still sharper, quicker and threw with more conviction than now even though he's more active now, and still he gave Pacquiao a boxing lesson, Pacquiao was the one coming off an impressive win against Algieri (who ain't **** anyways but ok) and a good win against Bradley who's a top welterweight, Pacquiao looked better than Floyd in 2014 and the old version of Floyd gave Pacquiao a boxing lesson, don't see how a younger version of Floyd couldn't have done the same!
