    You never explain yourself when people tell you they don't understand your comments.
    Well people want to know how you conclude floyds cw win over nelo is better than pac s best wins.? What is your criteria for ne o being such a good win?
    Nel o wasn't prime! He was drained! He wasn't a p fp fighter in most eyes also! What adversity did he overcome?. On contrary he tried getting things in favour. And we know what happens when you try getting advantages don't we? It takes away from win. So exactly why is it a great win? Floyd beats weakest versions and his fans blow the wins up to epic proportions. Nelo would have been an ok win under normal circumstances. But nelo was far from prime. It was a CW and nelo had no real good wins of note.mSo whynhavevyou elevated the win for Floyd so much? PACs win over cotto was better
    Explain yourself and stop being Parrott like. I know your embarrassed citeing the win as Floyd s best win and that's why you won't mention the obvious shortcomings of that win.

          As a general rule of thumb it's usually best not to mention h2h results usually the argument don't get you far. But pac was not far removed from his ko to jmm and was gun shy. Wasnt a great win for floyd. People weren't impressed with floyd s performance at all. Many don't think he won. Jmm had 4 attempts. Floyd cheated scales. You couldn't help mentioning jmm but don't like acknowledging Floyd cheating scales.
          Why don't Floyd give jmm 4 chances? Especially since he cheated first fight. Why not give Pac another chance at least.? Floyd knows on the whole people think his win over PAC is unsatisfactory tomput mildly

            now name a win Manny has better then floyd over Manny himself

            -TKO victory over Cotto 11 rds
            -KO victory of Hatton 2 rds
            -made De La Hoya quit on his stool
            -Brutal victory over Margarito who had about 20 lbs. on Manny night of the fight plus 5-6 inches in height. And oh yeah, he’s the same fighter that Mayweather DUCKED back in like 06-07.

            I mean the list goes on brother. Those victories are far greater and more impressive.
            Mayweather didn’t really do much to Manny. Not much of a fight. I really call that fight a draw, or maybe 7-5 Mayweather.

              Pac is a damn dinosaur and hes facing a young lion in his PRIME.

              Floyd DUCKED thurman as a mandatory with no shame.

              If Manny pulls this off he surpasses Floyd in the history books.

              If Pac beats Thurman, winner of Spence/Porter, and THEN Crawford...he has a real case.

              The biggest obstacle is Floyd's win over Canelo. That win is aging very, very well

                Floyd's win over Manny is aging well too if he beats Thurman

                  All of those wins by Manny were impressive, but also very convenient.

                  Cotto was coming off a stoppage to Margarito (first loss) and then a draw with Clottey using a new, inexperienced trainer. Nevertheless it was a good win!

                  Hatton was never the same after Floyd. He was consistently hurt by much lesser fighters in pretty much every fight after Floyd. Hatton was through on the world stage. Manny was a -300 favorite to win that fight for a reason...

                  DLH was through even before Floyd. I think prime DLH beats prime Floyd - some people will get bent up about that, but it's the truth. Prime DLH also beats Manny. In the Floyd scenario Oscar was at a healthy weight, controlled ring size, and picked Floyd's glove. In Manny's fight DLH was dead at the weight...he weighed less than Manny on fight night - that's incredible. He weighed less than a SFW/JW on the actual night of fight after not fighting beloiw 154 for like 6-7 years? Wow.

                  Margarito was always a hypejob. His career accomplishment was stopping Cotto and there is a lot of fuss about the potential use of plaster hand wraps. What happened after his career climax? He got TKO'd by Shane Mosley. Embarassing. And after that he went the distance with some random journeyman. The myth of Margarito was long shattered and Manny was simply collecting a "name" by that point.

                  That's the reality.

                  Manny's best wins above WW are Tim Bradley (3 times), JMM 3 (which was debatable), Hatton, Clottey, Jesse Vargas.

                  Sadly we also need to acknowledge there may've been PED use going on. Manny's camp gets a pass for unknown reasons regarding their refusal to drug test - it's unacceptable. Period. That was very su****ious...Manny's career achievements occured during the timeline in his career where he refused random PED testing. Shady, shady, shady

                  ---

                  It is very possible to reduce Floyd's wins too, but that Canelo win is what separates the two of them at this point in my opinion.

                  If Manny beats Thurman, winner of Spence/Porter, AND Crawford...definitely surpasses Floyd

                    Right, but All-Time lists aren't based solely on H2H. As others have suggested Manny clobbered some of Floyd's toughest opponents (DLH, Cotto, etc.). Sure the circumstances were different, but Manny still outperformed Floyd in those matchups. Similarly Floyd did the same thing with JMM (arguably won 12-0 with a KD) and those circumstances were different too.

                    In an All-Time sense though Manny is a bit behind Floyd, but unifying at WW at the age of 40-41 would be pretty incredible. That would definitely put him above Floyd for me.
