    Pac at the age of 40 to take the soul of a 30 year old undefeated welterweight champion of the world in his prime at his weight with no stipulations is more impressive. Canelo was wet behind the ears when Floyd fought him , his biggest wins going into that fight was a 40 year old past his prime Mosley & Trout.

        You seem to be tied up in non purist logistics, ill see my way out
        Not gonna say pac win was more impressive because Thurman looks like **** but you can't leave out when they fought. Is it the same if you beat nelo at 18 the same credit if you beat nelo at 28?

        When they fight matters and that's why I don't get this nelo lovefest with his resume. He beat an over the hill Mosley cotto and ggg and ggg win was debatable as ****.

          I wasn't even aware Floyd's win over Canelo was suppose to be some great highlight on his resume. Canelo was green as fck. It was a good win but down the list on his wins imo.

            Oh? So you don't consider him prime now?


            Porter and Garcia under his belt then Pac ****s him up.


            Won rounds

              The Canelo that fought Mayweather that night would destroy the Thurman Pacquiao fought. Thurman is not the same fighter he was when he fought Porter. Too many injuries and layoffs. He looked trash his last fight which is why Manny chose him. We all know that if it was Spence in that ring both Manny or Thurman would have been stopped. He was smart to take his belt and 0. Mayweather would have taken the same route as Manny, only difference is that he would be called a ducker of Spence or Crawford.

                ****** as f**ck! Look at his long lay off and his previous fight but you wouldn't know because i know for a fact you were watching NBA when that fight was on.

                The Keith before the lay off was willing to take any the top WW and did. Took on Porter and Garcia back to back but when he came back he never wanted any challenges. it was obvious he lost a step.

                  Canelo coming into the ring at 165 compared to his usual 172 turned the fight into a farce. Nothing impressive about using a-side leverage to weaken your opponents.

                    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.....................
                    - -TUE 50-0 against a 23 yr old catchweight drained fighter literally turning blue at the weighin vs a 40 yr old with the most P4P fights in history going against a prime 30yr old champ.

                    If you have to ask, you don't deserve to know...
