Mayweather's Money Won't Match Pacquiao's Legacy, says Buddy McGirt

[BodyBagz]

Good to know u agree. As for me i agree on bhops,mcgirt, whyte opinion that pac legacy is better than floyd and pac fought everyone who put in front of him while floyd only fought guys under his terms/watched.

Why i will make one when I'm just agreeing to everything that they said..

Nope. I'm the one laughing that u can't accept that those very knowledgeable people in boxing are thinking that floyd is a cherry picker.

Two flaws with this post.

1. Floyd's resume and style stand the test of time as well. That is why he is ranked ahead of Manny in every credible list of ATG boxers, the same way Duran is ranked ahead of the men you reference in this post.

2. The reason Duran is ranked ahead of them is because he was the dominant LW, arguably the best ever, before he moved up. He wasn't a career WW like Benitez, SRL or Hearns or a career MW like Hagler. Manny was never that in any weight class he was in.

There's not a man on earth who thinks Floyd s greater than pac until proven otherwise.
To be great you've got to be seen to go out of your way to do things for your critics as much as you possibly can and then some go above call of duty, Floyd satisfies none of this criteria. Pac s broken records time after time, doing things hes not supposed to do time after time, day in day out. I mean beating young guys like br oner, lucas is massive accomplishments now at this point, let alone beating thurman.
Floyd is famous for doing as little as he can get away with. That's not the behaviour of someone who greatness should be thrust upon.
You can't compare Floyd to pac and most people dont.

Roach wouldn’t accept Mosley at 147, he wanted 142 until Mayweather beat him, let’s not pretend they didn’t bend **** in their favour.

If beating you guys is an accomplishment, Floyd beat Canelo, who is significantly better than broner or Thurman.

Floyd also beat Manny.

Again, EVERY credible ranking of ATG fighters has Floyd ahead of Manny.

[Rome-By-Ko]

Respect Buddy. He is entitled to his opinion but he doesn't sound rational here. Or factual.

To say Manny fought everybody is hyperbole. Or did he fight Paul Williams and Zab Judah and I miss it? I also don't recall Manny not fighting people on his terms once he reached a certain level.

His point about being a multiple division champ makes sense. He speaks as if Floyd is not a multiple division champion. I think he is trying to say winning titles in 8 divisions is more impressive than winning in 5 divisions. Just say that.

When I see these comments, the people talk as if Floyd never defeated any HOF level fighters or that he wasn't an immensely talented fighter. They seem to suggest Floyd was just average and made money because of some gimmick, like a Butterbean.

Floyd spent many years as the consensus #1 or #2 P4P fighter in the world. His resume is such that he is ranked ahead of Manny in every credible poll of ATG fighters where experts are polled.

This,I've never heard not one person say Armstrong over Leonard..Great post..

Nelo isn't a better win than thurman. When Floyd beat nel o it wasn't considered a great win and a big deal. . People didn't know if nel o would disappear off the face of earth after losing to floyd like most of floyd s victims. Because he'd not done much before losing to floyd. But nel o was young so of course he would record important wins after losing to floyd, especially someone touted as future talent. The best was yet to come, nel o had time to comeback, a credit to nelo when people doubted he'd amount to anything. Another guerrero hype job!

Pac beating thurman made people think Pac is candidate for goat. The difference between night and day reactions to the wins.
Nobody thinks Floyd s greater than pac, stop lying to yourself.
