    You're wrong as usual. You can't compare PBF-Pac to Pac-Bradley 1 they were no where near as close if you think they were then you don't know how to score a fight and don't know what you're looking at. A case could be made for Bradley winning that fight there was no case that could be made for Pac beating PBF.

    The evidence and scorecards present a different story. Bradley won 2-4 rounds. How did you score Pac vs Mayweather

    Top 30 at best. Moving up through the weights is very impressive but I can’t say he is a top three at any weight and a lot of his later fights happened at opportune times for him, i.e.,fighters coming off of layoffs, losses,etc.

    Pac won 3 rounds at best against pbf really only 2 clear. So 118-110 or 117-111 are both acceptable

    The same way the majority saw the first Pacquiao vs Bradley fight as evidenced by the scores provided to you.

    Top 15 at worst.

    The guy is a former Lineal Flyweight Champ who beat the brakes off Miguel Cotto.

    Can you imagine if Nonito Donaire decided one day to beat Terence Crawford so badly that he needed a trip to the hospital? Didn't think so.

    They have 1000 excuses for why Mayweather never fought a great fighter in their prime.

    Beating Cotto after Margarito beat the prime out of him makes him top 15? Not in my book. If Pac is top 15 then Mayweather is top ten. By the way I have Mayweather about top 25.

    No we don't. Fights dont happen for numerous reasons you can't put the blame all on 1 guy. Pbf has a great resume. Pac never beat a fighter as good as canelo and pbf beats everyone pac fought.

    LOL if Cotto was past his prime in 2009 then Pac was past his prime in 2005 cuz he went to hell and back against Morales and Marquez.

    Imagine Donaire sending Crawford to the ICU. Yea, not happening.

    Pac is an 8 division champion.

    Canelo is already an atg and is 1-0-1 against GGG like i said he's better than anyone pac beat and would have worked him at 154 as well.
