Floyd is only TBE at 130. From 135-154 hes beatable.

    No disrespect if we're basic it off of combination of scale and resume You can make a legitimate argument that Canelo that fluid defeated is better than Crawford and Spence

    He couldn't fight like that because Castillo throws all his offense up close while manhandling his opponents. Pacman throws 1000 punches all either from mid-range or from lunges. He is tailor made for a counterpuncher. The only advantage Pacman has here is that he is southpaw, and a very unconventional one at that, which neutralizes Mayweather's philly shell. But Mayweather can fight as well out of a high guard. I am not saying he will have an easy night with Pacquiao in the slightest btw.

    That doesn't account for the difference in styles.

    I actually thought I was logged off but for some strange reason life brought us together.

    Go **** yourself. 140 was the best version of Pac.

    Pimp Cyst I’m assuming?

    i agree counterpunchers give pacquiao the most trouble. I also dont think 140 pacquiao beats mayweather easily but i think its very possible he wins in a 7-5 way. It took marquez 42 rounds and roids at 147 to finally put pacquiao away. So even the ATG counterpunchers wont have it easy but they will have it easier than other styles of fighters.

    what excuse did he make against marquez? ugas loss was when he was 42 and the bradley win was agreed to be a robbery by most. Agreed with the other 2

    Yes, it won't be easy for either man. But you have to favor Floyd considering both style and how their careers panned out.

    Another thing, Marquez wasn't the only guy who was roided in that ring. It evens out.

    I get what you're saying about Pac declining less. My point was that what you're saying is objectively false.

    Manny had trouble later on with styles that would've always given him trouble. Ugas, for instance, was never going to be an easy matchup for him. Pac essentially became a lower energy version of himself, but he was still Pac.

    Floyd was pretty much spent by the time they fought and retired soon after. Then he came back and looked like trash against Mcgregor at the same age that Pac was beating Thurman.

    You dumb af and don't know boxing. Pac can't beat pbf because he has no answer for pbfs ability to control range and dictate distance on him and pbf beats every version of pac because of that. Now log back off dumbass

    Where are the mods at? What a dumb thread. Whitaker and maybe Duran could beat him. Still a strech though. Sweet Pea though, bet the house.

    then who at 140 will have a better of beating floyd ? If floyd beats prime pacquiao at 140, it will be a 7-5 type decision where many ppl will think pacquiao edged it or it was a draw.

    I did. Pacquiao has a chin on him it only took a roided marquez at 147 to land a perfect punch on him after 42 rounds to put him away. In no world does pacquiao get knocked out. PBF couldnt KO castillo or zab judah.
