    Unless Floyd grow some balls and face Manny, its the only way we can find out who is better. Either or fighter should not be judged how they performed against the same opponent. Styles makes fights remember?

    You cant talk pal, your posts on anything Duran, Leonard or Duran v Leonard are embarassing :lol:

    Mayweather is a wanker but he beat Mosely easier, Pac looked frustrated most of the time because Shane wouldnt trade, Mayweather took 2 solid punches in round 2 but other than that just outclassed Mosely, it was Shane who looked frustrated vs floyd & pac that looked frustrated vs Shane.
    Its really not that hard to see & any neutral can see this, it dont take a`*****`or a`void`as you call it.

    Pac got frustrated when he had to chase mosley and mayweather was patient and countering.

    Mayweather UD, i wasnt sure before the mosely fight but now its a sure thing

    Pac had the better perfomance though

    Well duranimal is my fellow Duran fan but even I stay neutral most of if not all of the time(has nothing to do with me being a fan of all of the Fab 4 but I like staying neutral just to be non-biased):lol:.

    I agree and this is my non-biased assessment on both which I'm a fan of. C'mon, Floyd NEVER looked frustrated against Mosley and landed at will. Pacquiao can't say that and didn't do that.

    Its because Mosley was never afraid of Floyd's power. Read the interview on Mosley.

    119 (Bad call), 120, 120 says a lot on Mosley's performance.

    A lot of people saw this. Doesn't bother me why you can't.

    Pac struggled, Mayweather didn't. Rewatch the fights and tell me who had an easier time and was not frustrated. That is Mayweather, no question.

    You haven't re-watched enough.

    Mosley wasn't bothered with Floyd's power.

    In the case of Pacman... Hah! Mosley was so afraid, he took a bike. :lol:

    I admit I haven't rewatch Pacquiao-Mosley:lol:, you have me there. Still I picked up quite a bit from the frst viewing and lets be honest, Pacquiao had his best success landing single shots and was overanxious to land combinations. I have rewatched Mayweather-Mosley at least 4 times so I can tell you that I know that fight very well. Mosley did fight differently against both but Mayweather did better in his showing against Mosley and never struggled to find his opponent. Pacquiao did struggle to land cleanly consistently. It's his fault he couldn't track Mosley down and/or punish his body enough to stop his movement.

    Floyd here. Because Shane at least tried against Floyd, but Floyd completely took over and took Shanes will to fight. The version of SHane that Floyd faced was also SLIGHTLY fresher than the one Pac faced.
    Against Pac, Shane didn't even try. He tried to box a bit in the start, but after the KD it was all a track race.

    I agree problem comparing the two fight is that Mosley fought the different fight. Even him admitted he was bothered by Pacman's power.

    Anyone will always have problem fighting a boxer who's intention is just to survive. And yes pacman's leg issue is genuine.

    And I honestly believe Mosley won't last 6 if went toe-to-toe with Pacman. His interview says it all.

    When did Floyd have to cut off the ring? Mosley never ran against him. He ran all night from Pacquiao.

    Do you even know what 'cutting of the ring' means? Or are you just repeating words you heard?

    Yeah, he knew Pacquiao was going to knock him out so he fought out of fear and to survive instead of for victory. Floyd had him questioning everything he did and controlled him like a puppet. Mayweather took his confidence being the great boxer-type that he is and Pacquiao took his heart which was impressive considering that no one has done that but instead have frustrated him. I honestly belive Pacquiao & Mayweather aren't prime anymore but they did beat Mosley clearly.

    What is PAC's fault...... is SCARING Shane to the point where he took his heart and made him decide Running, rather than Boxing is the only way to proceed for the remainder of the fight with Manny. What is also PAC's fault is being too friendly and respectful of Shane to go full tilt like he normally does. So PAC has some blame.

    But no one can tell anyone with half way decent vision that PAC could have done much more to get to Shane who was clearly in 6th gear, RUNNING away from the fight.

    For those who give Shane credit for his "movement"....it's just anther way to rationalize Manny's greatness as boxings premiere fighter. Giving credit to Shane (although he deserves NONE) gives detractors a way to take away from Manny.

    Most said PAC wouldn't be able to KO Shane, but thought he'd dominate. And he did...but after the fight there's NO ONE questioning had Shane fought like he did with Floyd and did NOT run...that PAC would have ended things within the distance.

    it's hard to KO someone who refuses to fight...even for someone like Manny!

    Still possible to track them down and ko them, it is hard but possible. I gave credit for Pacquiao taking his heart but he should've limited the movement of a faded 39 year old man don't you think? He should've gone to the body more. No doubt he would've ko'd Shane if he fought in a come-forward approach but Pacquiao should not have much problems eliminating the movement of a faded fighter with not nearly as much footspeed as he had in his prime.
