    which win was more impressive or meaningful?


    A unification fight between the number 1 and 2 guy in the divison, or a fight for a vacant title in a weight class neither fighter is ranked in?


    You know the answer but I don't think youre man enough or enough of a true boxing fan to say so

      now you tell me which one is more impressive
      Margarito by far. Stylistically, Margarito posed a bigger threat to Manny than the relatively green Canelo to Floyd.

      Manny had to be on his A game or the much bigger Margarito would have beat Manny.

      On the other hand, the slow flat-footed Canelo was thinking that he can outbox Floyd. Game over. Now add to that Canelo who already had stamina and work-rate issues had to drain down 2lbs while Margarito was given a bonus of 3lbs for the Manny fight, its another reason to pick Margarito.

      Floyd's team was laughing at that version of Canelo. They saw so many flaws that still needed to be polished.

        Also be careful the way you post. Floyd would have nobody to show off on his resume if you believe in what you say.

          Floyds win vs Canelo is bigger than Manny win over Margarito but I am talking abt Cotto fight here

            Pacquiao's whole refusal to take drug tests and catch weights, will definitely affect his legacy with hardcore fans and historians. Those that don't look into the details, will be clueless and overrate him. Then there are those right now that refuse to look at the whole situation objectively, because they are extremely biased.

              His team has done a wonderful job manufacturing and cherry picking his career over the past decade

                    Yes he was always a overrated bum....



                    Floyds resume now takes a hit since his best name on his resume was a bum.

                      he thought Pacquiao established his greatness at 147
