    Floyd KO'd Hatton in 8 - Manny Flattened him in 2

    Floyd SD'd ODH - Manny punched his face in

    Floyd UD'd Cotto - Manny stopped him

    The point - They both won.

    How is not really relevant.

    Floyd eats aggressive fighters with his amazing counter punching style and JMM has always struggle with that style.

    Manny is the anti-defensive fighter and that's why he works so well with JMM.

    Imagine if there was a 3 knock dwon rule in the first JMM fight - that's as relevant a topic as comparing the intangibles between Floyd and Many's fights with JMM

    He looked good until he became overconfident. But still it is well documented Pacquiao not following Ariza on their training.

    Manny hasn't seen hand speed or a real pure boxer yet. Pacquiao becomes more dumb when he has to think. He just likes going in the moment and throwing wildly out of position and off balanced from recovering from his lunging. That only looks good against slow, no defense having plodders. He gets baffled by the likes of Bradley and JMM. Both b- fighters at best. Floyd toys with PAC in this one.

    Floyd beat Hatton when he was undefeated, and knocked him out in the 10th round

    Floyd beat ODH at 154. No catchweight. Gave in to a smaller ring, and huge gloves. De La Hoya was easily 160+ on fight night.

    Manny fought ODH at a weight he hadnt fought at in 7 years. and Pacquiao outweighed ODH by a pound on fight night. De La Hoya also said he had been drinking and coking leading up to the fight, but was disciplined and in great shape for Floyd.

    Manny beat Cotto at a 145 lb catchweight after Cotto was demoralized by that plaster fist bum Margarito.

    Floyd beat Cotto after 3 TKO victories and after he avenged his loss to that same Plaster fist bum Margarito. Gave up 10+ pounds with no Catchweight.

    No room for imagining in hindsight. What happened is what happened. Floyd did in 1 fight, what Manny still hasnt done in 4. Beat Marquez decisively.

    I dont understand why thats so hard to understand. I see nothing, and I've never seen anything that shows that Manny would give Floyd problems.

    Hatton undefeated at 140 - Louis Collazo nearly decpitated him at 147 and Manny fought him at 140

    And Floyd payed 600K or whatever it was the night before the fight to get out of the catch weight he agreed too with JMM - Either way - All of those intagibles still gave Floyd and Manny the victory and you KNOW that styles make fights.

    Imagining is not the point - This can not be settled without Floyd and Pac fighting and if it happens now - It will only fuel "It should have happened 4 years ago"

    It's a never ending cycle.

    Dude, you have something there! EVERY one of his opponents hits Floyd in the elbows instead of the head and body, ALL of his fights were fixed!!!! He's really 0-45!

    Its not argument. Its fact. Thats exactly what happened. Now if your calling out people that say just because May shut out JMM that he does the same to Pac because of it then why waste your time? Theyre f*ckin idiots. Styles make fights. With thta being said...Floyd does out box Pac easily and makes him look like an amatuer. Lmao. Everytime Pac tries that little gay jab jab left hand, floyd will either smother him or wont be there for any of it to land.

    The difference is one guys beats them while rated #1&2 off the back of big wins (Mayweather) while the other fights them 6/12 months after devestating losses(Pacquiao)
    How people act like there the same situation is beyond me.

    If the Bradley fight was an official win for Pac, would have looked great in his resume but I guess everyone knows who won that fight.

    I voted for Pac, but its close. I think Mayweather may edge it the end, if he fights Martinez at a say 155 and then beats some elite young fighters at welter, like Garcia or Bradley, he will surpass Pac in my book. As it stands now though, Manny has a better resume, more titles and better wins.

    I'm not blind, i do see that Floyd is a superior fighter and should have been the betting favorite if they had ever met (If the fight now it might even be a mismatch). However, thats not what its about, its about achievements.
