Being an all time great and 4 decade champ makes him a legend, but there was never a time he was the best fighter in his era.....just let the mayweather and manny debate die already...we were privileged to have 2 top 50 all time greats in the same era
What else could be the reason? There is no metric where manny is the better fighter.
There is no ranking that has manny ahead of Floyd.
They fought each other and Floyd won convincingly.
The people that pretend manny is better use some biased, invalid, gerrymandered formula where they elevate manny’s opposition.
Now if you guys aren’t doing that because you hate Floyd and suck off manny what is the reason?
It should be ok that manny is behind Floyd.
A lot of people just keep it real because they know post Hatton, Floyd pretty much cherrypicked slow, flat footed, come forward guys that he had reach advantage on. If there was a shortage of those guys, he went on vacation.
What's the big deal here. Overall both are probably top 30 all time, and head to head, the one fight they had was when one was so much further out of prime than the other. Plus the actual fight was inconclusive at best.
Don't let any of these slick talking Floyd Boys have you to believe Floyd is so much better than Manny. He just played better boxing politics more than anything.

Floyd is top 10-20. Manny is top 25-30. So yeah both top 30 but one is way ahead of the other.
None of you keep it real. If you actually did then there wouldn’t be any more Floyd threads.

Sorry but when Manny's Career is over he will leap over Flord on the ATG list, People are really OVERRATING the undefeated record. Rocky Marciano would still be the greatest HW if that is what mattered.
SRR wouldn't be top 3 all time if his losses were the only thing that brought him up or down.
Pacquiao has done more for the sport of boxing Globally then Mayweather will ever do.
Pacquao at this point isn't just a boxer anymore. People on this forum only look at boxing but WHAT MADE ALI what he became? He is a cultural icon not just a boxer.... Pacquiao is at that status now like it or not.
Would floyd be in contention if he had 7L's and 3 via ko? Nope, he will never be placed in a main event and esnews wont waster their time with him. Now Manny, given he has those 7 losses, people are still placing him in the top 5. That's how different it is...
1)Floyd never fought Pac at his best so we’ll never know what the true outcome would be.
2)Floyd didn’t even beat Manny when they fought, that was a lousy game of tag from Floyd. No engagement or nothing. Just Pac putting hands on Floyd for 12 rounds.
3)The Greatest in that era was JOSIE HARRIS. Took all Floyds punches and never KO’d despite no training regimen.

excitement and love goes to manny
skills and dominance goes to floyd, lets move on
Making yet another thread about it is a great way to “let the debate die already” and “move on”.
