So did Mayweather surpass Pacquiao, accomplishment wise after this win?

Pacquiao lost to cab drivers in his career. So Floyd's win over him isn't that great?

Can't have it both ways man.

as long as you acknowledge that floyd is greater and better than pacquiao we're on the same page.

Clearly surpassed him especially since he actually schooled him in the ring.what other way can you prove your better then to beat them.

Head to head vs. accomplishment are different things.

some Floyd fans try to put down Pac losing to cab drivers while saying beating him makes Floyd TBE

agreed......and floyd beats him in both categories.

[BIG GUNZ]

Overall career wise in terms of accomplishments, memorable fights & overall opposition goes to Pacquiao. In terms of who's the more skilled & better fighter between the two it'll considered to be Mayweather due to beating him regardless of how he beat him.

i felt floyd was greater than him before the fight.....check my post history. as a matter of fact i have the marquez win better than this win because he dominated him so bad coming off a two year lay-off.....that win was enhanced when marquez proceeded to beat the breaks off of pacquiao in the their third fight at ww and then marquez went on to khtfo in their fourth fight.

Head to head, yeah, we saw Floyd beat Pacquiao.

Accomplishment wise? I think they are about even in their fights around WW before they fought.

Pacquiao's featherweight run was pretty significant. Going 6-2-1 against legit ATG's is a big deal. Is Floyd's win over a past prime Pac better than that? I don't know.

That's the way floyd wins man.

Not really a fan of that style as well. It's not macho, balls to the walls type but it worked for him throughout his career. Boxers do what they need to win. Can't fault him for that.

This macho style is BS. These dudes fight that way cause they can't fight any other way. do you remember how Margarito started holding Pac when Pac was firing away, or when Margarito was getting on his bicycle after Mosley was dropping bombs. If Margarito had defensive skill, it's pretty safe to say he would rather skillfully avoid punches then to block them with his head.

You're entitled to your opinion man.

But your opinion is ******.

Marquez win better than a Pac win?

Mayweather was better in all categories before the fight, nothing has changed.
