How can people seriously believe Pacquiao is greater than Floyd
note: im not talking about who's the bigger draw, who has more fans, more ppv (although they all belong to floyd). im just talking about what they achieved in the ring.
i enjoy watching both floyd and pacquiao fights. i prefer how floyd fights more, but im trying to be objective. First off, Floyd has been "the man" in 4 weight classes, and Pac has only been "the man" in 3 weight classes even though he's an 8 belt title holder. I look through both of their resumes, and Floyd beating a prime Castillo, prime Hatton, 154 De La Hoya, prime Canelo is better than most if not all of Pacquiao's resume. it's funny how a lot of floyd haters say that floyd waited for his opponents past his prime, but manny's claim to fame was beating past prime fighters like barrera, and morales who beat his ass first time they fought. manny has fought a lot of fighters coming off of a loss. Floyd sometimes did it in the past (Judah comes to mind), but he has also beaten a lot of boxers after their best performance. manny has also been knocked out twice early when he was 17 and 20. now i can understand why people don't really count these losses, as he wasn't in his "prime" yet, but let's be real. imagine if floyd got knocked out once early in his career? floyd haters would be bringing that up nonstop. oh, and Floyd beat Manny quite easily in their fight. that's what's most confusing. If floyd and manny fought MAYBE, i can see why people debate this. but they literally fought and manny got schooled lol. im down for debate, what are the reasons why manny supposedly has a better resume? |

manny has the much better resume, didnt duck everyone in their primes like floyd, and beat floyd head to head(landed the much better punches, no idea how you can school someone while getting your head rockd around and only landing grazing jabs, sounds like bias there)

beating hatton at 147 is a great win for floyd? come on now. dont embarrass yourself
also if you are saying a couple knockout losses early in floyd career would severely damage his legacy that means what he accomplished isnt that great and is mostly based on not losing, but beating better fighters will always be better than not losing. its like comparing loma to tank. loma has a couple losses but a much better resume, same thing with floyd and pac. |

pac won the fight, he landed the much cleaner punches. the video shows that clearly so not sure why you would score it to floyd. i could understand watchin live and misinterpreting the slow pace and thinking floyd was winning but when you watch it back pac was in control landing the harder shots and barely getting hit with anything clean |
