    Mayweather fought Genaro Hernandez, Angel Manfredy, Gregorio Vargas, Diego Corrales, Jesus Chavez, Jose Luis Castillo, Phillip Ndou , Arturo Gatti, Sharmba Mitchell, Zab Judah, Carlos Manuel Baldomir, Oscar De La Hoya, Ricky Hatton, Juan Manuel Marquez, Shane Mosley, Victor Ortiz, Miguel Cotto, Robert Guerrero, Saul Alvarez, Marcos Maidana, Manny Pacquiao, and Andre Berto. And that’s still not enough...IMO it’s Pacquiao. Let’s talk boxing.

    Obviously Pac. Floyd might have him H2H, but Pac's resume is much deeper than the pretty grrls.

    Pac is the greatest boxer since Duran and has a bigger resume.
    From flyweight to 150. He was already an ATG before he went on his insane run in 2008.
    And had a decade full of quality wins afterwards still.

    I think Floyd is better h2h and more talented but he will always be number two for me due to his careful matchmaking and obsession with his zero.

    What an original thread.

    Still will probably get 10 pages of recycled garbage.

    Pacquiao has 9 fights against Morales, Barrera and Marquez at their peak. He didn't win them all but that means a lot.

    There is also the period 2006-2010 which is incredible with incredible victories against Hatton, Cotto, Margarito...

    Mayweather has an excellent resume but we can put an asterisk on a lot of fights since his return:
    Canelo only had one world-level victory and was drained.
    Marquez jumped two categories.
    Pacquiao was no longer at his prime

    Canelo wasn't Canelo when Floyd fought him.

    Floyd is better, but Pacquiao is greater.

    Haha I know right, like this is even a question,

    I'm not even sure Floyd has one guy who he fought that was actually in his prime either.
