    Pacs way ahead of Floyd he fought more weight divisions and fighters closer at there primes pac will never get credit from Mayweather ******s there to scared to admit his greatness , and the Floyd vs pac fight means nothing, pac is the naturally smaller man and fought with a shoulder injury Floyd power clinched and ran in a stinker whoa hoo yay Floyd.

      Yeah, Floyd easily beat Pac 4 years ago, but historically Pac I think is the greater fighter.

      He started out at 108lbs and is beating undefeated champions 10 years younger than him at 40 years old

      That might be a bigger accomplishment than George Foreman beating Michael Moorer.


      Floyd was more business smart, but I think Manny's in ring resume is better because he took more risks.
      Using your reasoning George Foreman would be a greater fighter than Muhammad Ali. He knocked out two guys who beat Ali and became heavyweight champion at 45 years old While Ali was done in his late 30s. Foreman in his 40s took a prime Holyfield the distance while Mike Tyson was Ko'd by a slightly past prime Holyfield.

      Does any of that make Foreman greater than Muhammad Ali? No, because at the end of the day Ali still beat Foreman.

      Floyd will always be above Pacquaio. He beat Manny when Manny was still champ and beat Manny's toughest opponent (Juan Manuel Marquez) with ease.

        Floyd easily outclassed the guy Manny could never beat decisively despite having FOUR tries at him in Marquez. Manny still lost to Floyd, still lost to a guy Floyd beat, and still got knocked out by two nobodies early in his career. Yes, he is great but not greater than Floyd.

        (I'm not going to include the Jeff Horn debacle)

          The whole world considers Pac the best of era and candidate for GOAT. He was greater than Floyd even way before beating Thurman or even directly after getting koed by JMM. The day after pac got koed by jmm, Floyd fans naively thought finally we can claim Floyd is greater than pac without being laughed at, but how naive Floyd fans were.
          Beating Thurman is again Pac proving he can do things Floyd has yet to prove. That he can beat guys of THurmans level at 40. Floyd didn't prove it at 37, 38 or 39 of age he was capable of beating anyone above Connor McGregor level and tenshin.

              What Ali stood for on a global scale makes him the GOAT more so than what he accomplished in the ring. believe dat.

              never put floyd in Ali's league.

              and the floyd vs marquez fight has an asterisk on it the size of TEXAS. jmm jumped two divisions then got cheated on the scales

                  There is signed paperwork by Pacquaio stating his shoulder was fine before the fight.

                    Maybe it healed sufficiently time of fight. But he reinjured it during fight is my understanding. I heard pac wanted painkillers injection before fight whether that’s true I’m not sure.

                      Pac just keep on giving us great fights!

                      And @ 40!

                      Name an opponent Floyd fought in his prime that is undefeated?

                      Zilch..
