    he aint more skillful than Floyd, otherwise he would make it more competitive
    no matter he was overweight, also PAC tested his chin very badly a few times

    what exactly "defines" skill anyway? Seems people are arguing using different standards. From what I've seen, people mostly think the slick fighters are the skilled fighters.

    Yes I agree. For example SRR got beat several times. He is not the definition of elite too.

    That logic is about as strong as Malignaggi's punch.

    And come on with Chad Dawson. His resume is a bit thin to put him on PBF and JMM level.

    People who say JMM "beat" pac's ass need to watch those fights again with an unbias eye. PAC was the one hurting JMM for the most part , and even though pac's style played perfectly into JMM's style , he was still able to win.. By landing the more damaging blows and hurting jmm. Just watch the last few rounds of their second fight . jMM was getting visibly worn down badly , if that was a 15 rounder jmm would have been stopped most likely.

    even if you think JMM won, could you honestly say that JMM beat Pac's ass?

    Points-wise the fights were close but IMO JMM won about 2/3 of the rounds.

    Maybe an "ass beating" or "schooling" might sound too harsh for you but JMM proved to be the more skillful fighter of the two.

    1st off Pac is skilled,and anyone saying that is just plain dunbass's,sure he isnt ass skilled as Mayweather,and Mayweather is only the most skilled because Hopkins is getting old Hopkins is still his equal as far as pure skill,and Floyds athletascim is far overrated,a prime Hopkins is more skilled and athletic,the skilled fighters are:

    Andre Ward
    JMM
    Martinez
    Toney
    Dawson
    John
    Bradley

    All time:

    Ali
    SRR
    SRL
    Hearns
    Whitaker
    Nunn
    S.Sanchez
    Camacho
    Holmes
    Armstrong
    Duran
    Pep
    Hopkins
    Curry. And im sure theres more im not naming,but i deffinetly feel Floyd is not as skilled as any of these guys.
