    The first time I witnessed him fighting
    You could just tell that he was specially gifted
    The fact he was humble in doing so made it all better
    He is a legend and I will always associate Pac with greatness to say the least

      I think Marquez proved he was the better fighter.

      And then Floyd beat marquez, then he beat Pacquiao.
      I think Pac beat jmm more times and was favourite so he was the better fighter as he has better resume. Let's see jmm as Pac s kryotonite. Every fighter has one of them if you don't avoid them. Pac fighting jmm 4 times shows Pac goes into danger.
      jmm wasn't flouds kryptonite but we know Floyd ducked more fighters than most ATGs. So it's very likely Floyd didn't meet kryptonite or never gave rematches so can't say he's better with no 3rd rubber match

        After fighting so many farmers and food vendors, Pac stepped up his competition. Lost some, won most. Got to ww and was overshadowed and beaten by a superior fighter. Has a shlt WW resume.

          He came in as a late replacement in a fight against then-touted Lehlo Ledwaba, a prohibitive favorite.

          I had watched footage of his early fights, and told to myself he would knock Ledwaba out.

          Too bad I could not bet at that time.

            The Cotto fight was Pacman in his prime. Too bad he wasn't in the ring with Floyd that night.

              To me his biggest win was Thurman. I was thoroughly convinced he was going to take a very bad beating from Thurman. Instead he was the one handing out the beat down. Just another day at the office for Pacquiao.

                In his prime PAC was a relentless buzzsaw. My initial thoughts, after witnessing that mangling in the first round of the first Marquez bout was “Who is THIS guy?”

                  Tremendous, legendary, but we didn't see his ceiling thanks to Arum & Haymon.

                    You’re right, Mayweather has $h!t resume.

                    Floyd’s last three fights:

                    Tenshin
                    Mcgregor
                    Berto

                    And get a life stop parading around this site like a loser! Go get laid or something man!

                      Those 3 fights is more than Pac earned in his entire career. Prizefighting, remember ?

                      Shot May made Pac a cripple.
