      I also laugh at people talking about "domination"... ISTR they only threw about 3 punches a round between the two of them.
      Exactly, thay was a fight between Pacquiao and Thurman.


      Floyd and Canelo was like sparring with a 23 year ****ing Waking Dead character.

        Thurman was prime, undefeated and Pac fought him in the twilight of his career and won.
        So u would pick thurman over canelo at that stage? The same thurman we seen look like trash vs josesito lopez and has been less active than 40 year old manny?

            People have to factor in that Ping Ping is a lot smaller than Maiii too, so any feat he pulls is extra special.

              Neither. Floyd beating Pacquiao is the only thing that counts when comparing the two. I'm sorry but there is no going around it. Floyd beat Pac is the only thing that will stick out

                Pac was better and its not debateable. Nelo was inexperienced at top level and CW. Thurman is considerably more experienced at this stage and also Pacs 41. A former flyweight with 71 fights. Floyd fans have no perspective and aren't realists.
                Nelo is far better than he was when Floyd fought him. Thurman has always been around the same. He may have been a bit better before injury you could argue. But its nit picking, Thurman had all advantages in size and youth.

                  Mayweather was up there in age going up against a much younger fighter who had a pretty significant size advantage and completely schooled him. That shyt wasn't even close. Fast forward to today, it still remains Canelo's only loss. Not just a loss. A complete shut out.


                  But on the other hand, you have an old man at 41 years old taking out a a legit top welter that is much younger and undefeated fighter supposedly in his prime. Even dropped him.


                  damn.....................
                  If people even question which is more impressive then they are absolute idiots and playing into Mayweather hands

                  Canelo was obviously going to be a big time fighter and huge star and Mayweather knew this and a fight with him would have been called for also

                  Canelo was a mere 23 years of ages and no where near the fighter that fought Golovkin in their first fight

                  Even inbetween the first and second golovkin fight canelo was still and still is growing into his prime

                  It was like a man and a boy

                  Pacquiao is and has been in decline but still a sensational fighter
                  But with close calls and losing to horn ect a shadow of his former self

                  But still good enough to fight the heavy hitting prime Keith Thurman

                  A man that has beat two top tier fighters in Danny Garcia and shawn porter

                  Canelo biggest win prior to Mayweather I hear you ask

                  Austin trout a now known absolute hype job who's ass collapsed in every big fight hes been in

                      Floyd whooped Canelo, but Canelo was green and inexperienced in big fights. 40 year old Pac took on a close-to-prime Thurman (at least in terms of age), who had already beaten some of the top welters in the div (Porter, Garcia), and Pac put him down in the first round (and hurt him multiple times). Edge to Pac imo.
