    I am comparing both by size. and pac is smaller and therefore floyd should take on higher divisions. for pac 154 is limit. for a big 5'8 like floyd, middleweight should than be limit. you get my point.

    Pac doesn't do the 154 lb division though. He had the chance for the Cotto rematch at the 154 lb limit and declined because it's "too big"

    this foto again shows that marquez looks like a school kid compared to floyd. and for me marquez and pacquiao is equal in height/weight!!!

    1 point for you. but if I can give you credit, than give me mine.

    yet. mayweather size physic > pac size & physic. thats why floyds opponents should be a litle bit be bigger than pacs opponents and that is not the case, okay.

    Come on man, Im not here to put anybody down , but just look at the weigh in and also this back to back , Hatton is actually listed at 5 7.

    I dont mind being wrong on boxing , but this is pretty obvious.

    Pac hasn't really fought any big dudes lately. Besides Margarito. Who was shot, and half blind, and wasn't a challenge at all. That'd be like Floyd fighting Bronco McKart at 160.

    How much credit would he actually get for that :lol:

    HBO probably didn't want to commit to a 6 fight deal for the same money and showtime made an offer which was better for Floyd. Are there and conditions on the deal in terms of opponents and if he losses.
