    He could have but he would enter the fight at 150-152

      Well, you're wrong.

      Horn outright won 3 rounds and was 50/50 on another 3 rounds.

      If GGG supposedly won by going forward and jabbing in the first Canelo fight Horn won this easy.

      Personally 7-5 either way was fine by me, but calling it a robbery bc you're upset with the decision is immature and childish

        Mayweather survived Pacquiao by running all over the ring. Compare the way he fought against other opponents. He ran. And listen to the commentary on HBO. One of the worst/biased ever.

          Except Mayweather through more punches than pacquiao dummy. Many of you are too ****** to understand the sport of boxing. You should stick to watching tough man competitions.

I think the argument for who has the better legacy is best defined by level of competition at different aspects of the careers in comparison to the other.
            Truthfully most boxing fans should agree that either one stands out from most any fighter in boxing history. Both are bare minimum top 10 of all time or higher.

              Wait, how is showing me that almost 2/3rds of the fan cards disagreed with the decision suppose to prove me wrong?

Why would Floyd ever need to go 20 pounds and 3 divisions above his natural weight to be compared to Pacquiao. Pacquiao fought a natural 147 pound Margarito at 154 to just get that paper title at 154. Im sorry but you can have your opinion on who is greater but talking about Floyd not moving up to 160 and fight Jermain Taylor in 2015 to become a paper champion at middleweight is not a valid reason just because Pacquiao did that at 154. Really who would even care if Floyd beat a shot Jermain Taylor?
                He didnt fight Margarito at 154 it was a bogus 150, the back story is Uri Foreman was a 154 title holder, Pac asked for a CW and Foreman said no, Roach said Foreman was too big, in comes Margarito who was bigger than Foreman after 2 yrs out and one comeback fight in Mexico at 154 here he looked terrible then Mannys CW was still on at 150.

                Paper title and no way should be classed as another title it was such a manipulation of match making and weight control.
