Yes we've already acknowledged Pacquiao's decade award. Roy Jones has the same award for the 90's.
Keep telling yourself that Manny has a better resume but the facts say he doesn't:
Mayweather (49-0) (Only undefeated 4 or 5 Division Champion)
26-0 in world title fights
23-0 in Lineal title fights
24-0 against former/current world champs (22 opponents)
Took titles from 11 of those 22 former/current world champion opponents
Pacquiao (58-6-2) (Only 8 Division Champion)
15-3-2 in world title fights
21-5-2 against former/current world champs (20 opponents)
Took titles from 8 of those 20 former/current world champion opponents
Mayweather fought his 1st former/current world champion in his 18th career fight and 1st title fight so that means that 22 of his last 32 career fights was against a former/current world champion.
Pacquiao fought his 1st former/current world champion in his 25th career fight and 1st title fight so that means that 20 of his 42 career fights was against a former/current world champion.
