Are Pacquiao's accomplishments @ 147 really "that much" better than pbf's?

    They're about the same in my opinion but the big element is the TIME FRAME BOTH men have been at 147.

    Floyd has been at 147 for what....5 yrs and only has 2 or 3 if you consider Zab a LEGIT welter.

    PAC has been at 147 for a year and a half and has 3 LEGIT welters which says a whole lot.

    It went down as a Welter weight fight, but it was an agreed catchweight where the welter weight title was on the line. So it was a 147 fight.

    Floyd was getting destroyed for even CONSIDERING a rematch with DLH back then.

    And how much do you think Cotto weighed on fight night?

    Everyone magically loses all their stamina when they box Mayweather. They must just all give up on conditioning just to fight PBF.

    as a huge pac fan i do have to admit floyd was the legitimate welterweight champion when he beat baldomir. can't say that about pac.

    Yeah, I mean Mosley threw more power punches in the last 4 rounds than the first 4, but he was a dead man after round 2 apparently.

    Damn. Floyd fans completely destroy pacquiao fans and Floyd haters again. Isnt it strange whever a legit boxing discussion is started, Floyd fans come out on top?


    It seems if *******s cant photoshop a couple of images together they got nothing.

    With the Mosley win Floyd got the better resume at 147....that win did a lot in helping his legacy at 47...

    pac fought a guy coming off an L in his last fight...and if your gonna say "clottey won that fight against cotto"..than either way u look at it he ISN'T FIGHTING TOP 10 FIGHTERS AND HE IS FIGHTING A GUY WHO IS A PROVEN CHEAT AND GOT KNOCKED OUT BY THE "AN OLD SHANE MOSLEY"

    IMO the win vs Oscar at 154 is better then both guys wins at 147.

    I think Pacman breathing is better than Floyds career.
