Floyd is so much better than his era that he will never get credit for who he beats!!

    Pac was knocked out by bums, out boxed by a washed up morales, counter punched to death vs JMM in 4 fights and knocked unconscious by an almost 40 year old and you are telling me this guy defines Floyd career? . Everyone knows Pac would have gotten picked apart by Floyd. Bob Arum built pacs name off of Mayweathers name. He fought 3 guys that Floyd fought after Floyd fought them and then used weight advantages vs Come forward guys not at their best!!! This can't be disputed...Oscar coming off a bad performance vs forbes and before that lost to floyd in floyds first fight at 154lbs in a small ring wearing pillows vs the former MW champ and current JMW champ and legend. Hatton coming off a ko and a terrible performance in which he was almost KO'ed vs some chump. Cotto at a catch weight after Cotto was pounded by Margarito and beat up by Clottey, fighting Clottey after the loss to Cotto. Margarito at a catch weight for a vacant title after he was knocked out by Mosley and coming off a suspension/layoff. Mosley after loss to Floyd, a horrible draw to mora....getting out boxed by jmm in their 3rd fight after Floyd toys with great Jmm with ease.

    He would have gotten plenty of credit for taking on the likes of a prime Cotto, or Margo, Williams, Mosley back in 08/09 , or Pacquiao years back. There's no way you couldn't give him credit for that. But he straight up avoided all of those tough challenges. You can come up with all the excuses in the book, fact is he didn't make those fights and he didn't try to either.

    Yes.

    Pacquiao was arguably the best fighter in 2009/2010 and Mayweather was too. They both needed to fight to determine the best fighter but they never fought.

    The only reason Mayweather is the current P4P is because of Pacquiao's recent losses. Fact.

    When Floyd is on top rank arum doesn't want to match them. A year later Floyd leaves top rank and all of a sudden Floyd is ducking Cotto? Williams fight never would've happened cause they were both Haymon fighters and plus p will got out boxed by Carlos Quintana :lol:

    Like I said earlier, name me fighters he ****ed not promoted I top rank :think

    Oh it's not me, it's Floyd own people :lol: from the USofA that think Pacquiao was the greatest of this era, that's why they gave him the award :deal.

    If he'd beated a string of Prime HOF'ers then i'd agree with you.
    But all his wins are against B Level Fighters, and all his HOF wins have been against Over the Hill Fighters.
    With the exception of Corales and Castillo who are border line HOF'ers and Most people think Castillo won the 1st fight anyway.

    So i'd say no he isn't to good. He just never fought many really tough challengers. But i'll agree he was too good for most of the people he fought.

    I already did, Williams which your excuse is he's promoted by Al Haymon .

    And Mosley - back in 08/09. Floyd came back from 'retirement' and dragged up Marquez instead of fighting Mosley who was the WW champ at the time.

    It's not an excuse, it's fact! Name me 2 al Haymon fighters that have fought....ever?:huh

    He can from retirement and humiliated a guy that Pac has failed to convincingly defeat in 4 tries in 8 years. Then he came back and beat on the #1 WW Mosley :lol:
