Which win was better?

Legacy wise.

Career defining.

Based on fan perception!

Mayweather's is more meaningful though it should of happened years before though that's actually Mosley's fault why it didn't also people tend to not really watch the lower weight classes I mean the casual fans/not real fans Donaire's win is impressive but made to look bad since Nishioka fought so damn shamefully and we all exspected better from him but he was afraid to open up which makes since when he finally did he got knocked out but christ that fight was a buzz kill after the Rios vs Alvarado one.

he wanted to retire before the fight as well he just wanted a paycheck that should not have been the main event.

Felt the same way. I think Donaire is very talented but lacks the killer instinct. He could've taken Nishioka out earlier but was content to wait. With his skills and power he could of setup Nishioka for the TKO much earlier. Even as defensive as Nishioka fought early when Donaire pressed the action he was able to land heavy.

He hurt is left hand after the uppercut that dropped Nishioka the first time. He cut it open.

Donaires win was better.

But Mayweathers will be better remembered as Mosley is a 1st Ballet HOF'er

But Mosley was absolutely garbage at that stage of his career, and following performance against Mora proved this.

to add, mosley is burned out already following a cancelled fight with berto.

Mosley was coming off a win against the most feared man margarita, who beat the shit out of cotto.

Nishioka was coming off a win against rafeal marquez.

quite clear who win was better.

anytime a man beats an elite fighter it is better than not beating an elite obviously. So the Mayweather over Mosley fight is easily the better win. I even think Mayweather beating Cotto is much better than the Donaire win Sat. But Donaire is improving and might be peak right now.

Off course! Mayweather UD Mosley is better than Donaire TKO Nishioka.

Nishioka didn't give Donaire any trouble while Mosley almost knocked down Floyd in round 2.

16 months ago. Not to mention Margo was tailer made for Mosley.

Mosley could prob fight that version of Margo now, and TKO him by beating him to the punch then holding.

They're really close.

Both were wins over the "top man" of the division.

Both were totally dominant victories. Donaire had KD's and a stoppage.

Close and maybe a tie, but I'll go by the ever slightest margin to UD Mosley.
