Why do people rate Mayweather higher than Pac when he never challenge himself at 160?

[SUBZER0ED]

You really think little Floyd could have fought @ 160?

Manny ducking the blood test will always be fishy to me. A lot of fans will remember that and wonder.

How many elite fighters did he beat in their prime?

And in the clash of the titans - he lost clearly.

I'm not going to really argue opinions because everyone is entitled to theirs. But I don't see it

[redmish]

154 was Floyd's maximum. If you dont know that you shouldn't be starting threads.

[Marchegiano]

because that's a ****** way to judge greatness. The cherry picker argument in better.

I cannot for the life of me understand why people actually rate Floyd higher than Pacquiao when he did not even attempt to fight at 160. Meanwhile Pacquiao went through eight divisions.

He should have challenged himself by moving to 160.

I'm not convinced anyone rates Floyd higher. It's a manufactured idea

In order to be the best ever he needs to beat Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury. Until then, it’s all smoke and mirrors to me.

Eh, I don't think Mayweather needed to go to 160 to be ranked higher than Pac.

For me, the fact that he never fought outside of America, and not even outside of Las Vegas (with sympathetic judges) for the last decade of his career, hurts him to me.

The fact that he didn't beat great fighters in their primes after Diego Corrales & Castillo to me hurts him to me.

All the retirements didn't help.

To me, the fact that Pacquaio always was on the road fighting in others
countries (and getting robbed by Joe Horn & Timothy Bradley), while trekking through 8 divisions, and continuing to beat highly ranked champions at 40 years old pushed him over the top of Floyd to me.

At a catchweight? Why bother?
