    no. Manny is greater. This is a case where Floyd beat him but Manny is greater, more divisions and he beat more greats. Better fights. More legendary.

    if we are being fair, Money defended a MW or WW title at 39, didnt he? Better than Manny at 40, arguably.

    Manny Pac is greater than Mayweather.
    H2h matter not greatly in this case.
    Similar to how Duran is greater than Leonard.

    People will still remember Pacquiao for his humble and modest personality. A true gentlement inside and outside the ring. Building his life and boxing career from the scratch, working hard through almost 25 years and hardly ever complained or badmouthing others.

    If you are a boxing fan and you have a son who follow it as well, who do you prefer to tell the story about more, Pacquiao or Mayweather ?

    He's had an incredible career, his resume is as stacked as you could get, Barrera, JMM, Morales, De La Hoya, Hatton, Cotto, Mosley, Margarito, Bradley, etc and what he did at welter was astonishing. Watching him wreck guys like Cotto, Hatton, Margarito you just knew you were watching someone special and even before than a pre-prime Pac was beating veteran greats like Barrera and Morales.

    If I see another fighter like him in my lifetime I think I will be very lucky.

    Lol pac achieve more by beating most fighters that was either coming off loses to way past their primes? And ppl talk about floyd only face fighters that he knows he'll win? I can easily say the same about Pacquiao in which roach have said it many times before "We only fight that's in our advantage" lol. <<<>Hint vs oscar at 147 pounds and catch weights smh.

    Dude you play that game but anyone can play that game. Look, Floyd beat a shot Corales who was going to prison, robbed castillo, beat shot ODLH, beat Hatton at 147 instead of where he was king at 140, beat an old man and war torn Cotto after margo and pac damaged him, drained canelo, beat a 1-shoulder past it pac whilst he was on fluids, dragged up a fat JMM. You can play that game with anyone's resume. Easy.
