    Not anymore imo, he can beat some guys, but most of the WWs are far too big for him, unless he gets ariza shakes.

      Bradley and Vargas were good fights.. PAC is still top 5 WW imo but he slips the rankings with every Horn he fights...
      Spence and Thurman might beat him, he might just edge against the rest..

        Pac is still a top 3 WW.

        I don't think Pac has enough left to beat Spence, but he has enough left to make it a tough fight and really test him.

        Thurman is a 50/50 fight.

          Most people don't get it that boxing is a 2nd career now not his first. Of course he is fighting Horn because he doesn't have the time anymore to fight top tier comp due to his time constraints.

          Personally I think he needs to retire and go full time as a politician.

            He's a shadow of his former self, but he's still a top 5 WW easy. We saw that in the ease in which he dispatched Bradley and Vargas, who were both ~top10 WWs.

            All this does is highlight how good he was in his prime.

              Instead of saying i talk utter rubbish can you educate me with your wisdom what exactly is it i said that is not right?

              Did he fight all the WW to prove hes the best? Did he fight Brook? Did he fight Thurman? Did he rematch Pac even with controversial shoulder gate.
              Brook and Thurman arent in the same League as Floyd. Come on now.

              Also nothing was controversial about the Pac fight besides how boring it was. Clear victory & no one wants a rematch

                  There resumes arent as good as Floyd is that what your saying. Anthony Josh resume isnt in George Foremans class, but Josh would beat Foreman now.

                  Floyd didnt prove he was the best WW by fighting the best WWs or the ones whod give him toughest fight. Same as Pac. If Pac dont fight the guys considered the toughest fighters at WW then he cant be called the best.
                  So how does that make me a Floyd hater but not a Pac hater like Robbie Barrat calles me.?

                    Until he loses to someone not named Floyd Mayweather, yes.

                      Floyd fought the best WW's so did Pacquiao. If they Cant be called the best, no one can. Name a fighter in the last 10 years with a better record at WW than Floyd & Pacquiao..

                      Guess Keith Thurman is the better than Floyd now since he beat Danny Garcia. Lmao
