    The Baldomir fight was an injured Mayweather pot shotting his way to victory in an awful fight.

    Are you saying Mayweather didn't show his boxing ability to completely dictate and shut down Shane Mosley while walking him down the entire time?

    pac did. but boxing fans put pac at a much higher standard and have much higher expectations from him compared to mayweather.

    fans expect pac to utterly dominate and destroy his opposition, preferably via stoppage while in mayweather's case, it is enough for him just to win via a wide UD.

    that comes with the territory of pac being the current p4p #1, the face of boxing, and an upper echelon ATG.

    Mosley had Mayweather hurt and doing the Electric bugaloo in round 2, Pacquaio had mosley running for his life after a couple of rounds and Pac scored a KD. Mosley hurt Mayweather but could not hit Pacquaio clean.

    Conveniently leaving out how Shane had Floyd on ***** street, Shane was never able to hurt Pacquiao at any time.

    Well said. Imagine Pac winning a sd decision against Mosley just like what happened to Floyd against Oscar. Imagine Pac putting a bad performance against Mosley like Floyd's not impressive performance against Oscar.

    Pac is regarded on higher standard more than Floyd.

    On the topic, Pac outperform Floyd, as Mosley told Pac is the tougher fight.

    Floyd look dominate in the fight with Mosley. Altho manny dominated Mosley and even knocked him down he looked sloppy at times throwing wild shots. and he couldn't cut the ring off. I think people forget Mosley was backing up from Floyd but Floyd cut the ring off very well.

    So basically Floyd dominated in his Fight with some trouble in the 2nd. And manny dominated with no trouble and scoring a knock down. But manny also got knocked down(whether it was legit or not is up for debate).

    I cant believe some of the stuff I'm reading in this thread. No ****ing way did Pacquiao look better than Floyd against Shane, Nazim Richardson was close to pulling Mosley out against Floyd because he was shipping so many shots round after round, bet the thought of pulling Mosley out didnt even cross his mind last night.

    LOL you actually defendign the knockdown. Are you an idiot it wasnt a knockdown he got pushed..

    This wasnt the best manny we saw he was clearly injured his footmovement was noneexisting. So a 50% manny totally destroyed Mosley and make him run for his life for the entire fight so ofc Manny looks better.
    Mosleys had Mayweather hurt in the 2nd round Manny never got hurt he barely got hit. Look at manny face after the fight I coulnt see if he had just been in 12 round boxing match.

    Lets hope Mayweather take the fight now

    I recall Mosley saying that he hadn't got hit with power like that in a while, not that Manny was a tougher fight than Floyd.

    There were plenty of opps for Shane to exploit Pac as Nazim said...he just was too gun shy. As far as Pac being able to take Shane's power, Shane never landed anything clean like the shot he hit Mayweather with. He got in a couple of good body shots with the right hand, and some jabs...but thats about it.

    To answer the question, think Floyd had the better performance, even with Pac's knockdown in the 3rd. Floyd was landing clean precision punches the whole fight.

    What debate are you talking about? Did you watch the fight? Did you know that the ref already apologized to Pac? :-:)patsch
