    I didn't call Philla out becuase, as I stated, he at least puts his reason why he believes that. For Floyd fanboys, all you guys do is post his name and that's it. What makes Floyd more versitile in your opinion? Being versitile means having the ability to change your style to fit your opponents. To not only fight in one style. So, what exactly does Floyd do that make it ridiculous to think Pac is more versitile. This isn't about who the better boxer or more skilled, or a better counterpuncher, it's about versatility.

    At least Pac show shown his ability to box effectively, show defense when needed, and brawl if necessary. Floyd, for all of his great skills, fight HIS fights for the most part, because he's great enough to not need to change up much. That's not a knock on Floyd, but that's how I see it. He doesn't really need to change up much when he fights. He sticks to his game plan.

    You'll never see me saying that Pac is a better defensive fighter than Floyd. I don't lose any sleep over what people think my credibility is. I call it like I see it regardless of what fighter I'm talking about and it just so happens I see Pac as a better fighter than most people do and it's always been like that. I haven't changed my tune, the only reason it looks like I'm going overboard these days is cause of the invasion of Pac haters on this forum.

    Hitting and not getting hit is all about landing as many punches as possible on your opponent and taking as little as possible in return.

    Pac lands more punches on his opponents than Floyd, Floyd takes less punches in return than Pac.

    Overall though Pac is better at it than Floyd, and by a wide margin when it comes to powershots which does matter no matter how you cut it.

    I understand and grasp the word fine. In my opinion Manny has show more tools and ability offensively than what Floyd has shown and defensively it's my opinion that Floyd has shown more layers.

    PAC uses more tools to help promote his style of fighting which is mostly offense. Floyd incorporates more defense than most and is more dynamic on that front.

    It's funny to me how some are getting butt hurt over what's right there in front of you upset Floyd fans. It's not a knock on Floyd if someone is better than he is in certain areas. Relax honey.....it's not the end of the world.

    If he's better at it, why does he come out of fights looking like he went 10 rounds with mike tyson, while floyd doesn't have a mark on him.

    Can you explain what he does that suggests that his versatility is so fantastic?

    Floyd has a lot of versatility without a doubt but there's offensive and defensive versatility to consider. While Floyd is extremely versatile defensively, he's not as versatile offensively.

    For Manny he's extremely versatile offensively and not as much defensively. Who's more versatile is easy to speak on if you categorize "versatility" in two categories....Offense and Defense since Floyd is more defensive and PAC is more offensive.
