    Pacquiao was considered the #2 fighter in the world. Mayweather has many more that were considered top 10/20 when he fought them. The only way the these haters can hate is to say he fought no "prime ATG's".

    Mayweather has a great resume. The guys in your avi OP dream of having one a quarter as good.

      The era he fought in was one of the deepest of all time....Himself, Mayweather, Freitas, Casamayor, Stevie Johnston, Steve Forbes, Casamayor, and Jose Luis Castillo.

      he could box, ****, and heart of a lion.

      imagine if he was in the era of bazooka limon, bobby chacon, boza-edwards, Jose Luis Ramirez and edwin rosario...another deep era. I think he'd have defeated most of those guys. that era was fun

        Floyd never beat a prime all time great. Corrales and Castillo are not considered all time greats.

        But to be fair oscar de la hoya, Mike tyson, Evander Holyfield, Lennox lewis, wlad Klitschko, Julio ceaser chavez never beat a prime atg either

          Hearns, evander, lennox, wlad, chavez sr, monzon, louis, none have a win over a prime atg
          Holyfield had Dwight Muhammad Qawi who is an ATG CW, HOF member & was prime. I'd also say Rid**** Bowe was prime & an ATG HW. Michael Moorer is an ATG fighter too & was prime.

          Secondly they are easy to come by because during Floyds time prime Pac was operating.

          Mosley had Oscar
          SRL had Hearns
          Hopkins had Tito

          So yes they are easy to come by.

            Chico is a fight that Floyd does'nt get enough credit for. He was a monster, there is no two ways about it. And Floyd absolutely destroyed him. It was the last time I actually picked someone to beat Floyd lol. For me Chico was his best win before beating Manny.

                Pac. If Pac was shot or so far out of his prime how did he just dominate Bradley like that? Many people were saying Bradley was the best welterweight out there. Pac just destroyed him. How many welterweight would you pick to beat Pac right now?
                Marquez was prime?

                    insert excuse starting happening after his big wins

                    he made it look easy and people cant relate

                    if making 130 was so hard for Corrales, how would he have been able to regain titles at 130 and return there after 2 years out of the ring?


                    excuses, excuses, excuses


                    floyd was just that good in his youth.....swift, slick and explosive....pretty boy floyd was scary good
