Dumb question. I'm not surprised because it's boxingscene

In terms of how the fight looked? Pacquiao looked more foolish at times than Canelo so I'd have to go Canelo looked better... Not that he looked good but seeing Pac flail around aimlessly and visibly show frustration was tough.

Maybe I'm crazy but I'd probably have to go back as far as Baldomir or something to find someone who looked as lost as Pac. Canelo didn't look ready and had a s hit plan. I don't think Pac could in a rematch do any better than he did and I think that's where the big difference is to me. I think Pac loses to Floyd 1000 times out of 1000 but I think Canelo could probably steal one in some parallel universe fighting big and uptra agressive...I guess...

Pac has earned the right to have an edge vs Canelo in a p4p type of discussion. But just because Pac is the better fighter doesn't mean he did better.

I think Marquez looked the worst against Floyd. That fight was a light sparring session.

May Vs Pacquiao, I scored it 9-3, maybe 8-4 for Mayweather.

May Vs Canelo, I scored it 12-0 for Mayweather.

So Pacquiao in my opinion.

Maidana did far better than both combined.

Actually they both looked pretty bad. Mayweather absolutely clowned Canelo. He made him look like he was stuck in mud. Pacquiao looked like a little kid in there with Maweather. Pacquiao had a few flurries but for most of the fight he looked lost.

I don't know. Depends on how you look at it. Manny looked lost and frustrated chasing Floyd around the ring and throwing at air. And he looked horribly tentative. He was so worried about Floyd's counters that you could visibly see him thinking and hesitating in spots where he had opportunities to let his hands go. There were a lot of garbage rounds in that fight where Manny could've stole them by simply being busier, but Floyd had him neutered out there.

But Canelo -- he was getting bullied and walked down at points of that fight. Which was incredible considering Canelo's size, strength, and youth advantages he had in the fight. Manny, for as neutered and pathetic as he looked for much of that fight, at least stunned Floyd on a couple of occasions, including one point where he rocked him leading Floyd to shell up like a turtle. I don't recall Canelo having one single decent moment in his fight with Floyd.

Whatever doe. They both looked terrible.

Pac at least stunned Floyd and when Floyd tried to bully Pac he like did Canelo and walk him down he got hit and went back to boxing.

[Zaroku]

PAC did better.

Pacquiao made it competive, Canelo couldn't even lay his hands on Floyd. The fat kid got schooled.
