    Lets face it. Since Mayweather has begun to figh more aggressive, the skill, intensity, and action in his fights have been far superior to Pacquiao.

    Suffice to say Mayweather is more exciting in ring and out

    Pacquiao is washed up. You take away Cottos size advantage, Margaritos plaster and Pacquiaos possible PEDS use, and Top Rank is finished.

    I think Manny has more appeal to very casual fans MW,but (almost) anyone who really appreciates the intracacies would see Mayweather as far more appealing.

    I'm not taking anything away from Floyd, he's an amazing fighter, but I wouldn't use the word exciting to describe his fights. Clinical yes, exciting no.

    Floyd was always more exciting than Pacquiao Floyd is exciting against ALL fighters. Pacquiao is only exciting against sluggers.

    I think it's intreuging, more so than exciting.

    There's been more action recently yes, and you could argue that it's by design from Mayweather. I think the fact that he's not as untouchable as he was a few years back adds drama to his fights. When someone has marginal success against Mayweather, it's drummed up because it's out of the norm.

    Pacquaio has always been a hit and get hit guy, and he's much more stationairy now, he's lost that dynamic element to his game.

    Quite true

    Recently mayweather has been letting his hands go much more and isnt running as much, fighting toe to toe and throwing combos.
    I am excited to see mayweather fights now to anticipate what masterful maneuvres he pulls off.

    Pacquaio was farrr more exciting a couple years ago when he fought all out, unleashed a whirlwind, wild but awe inspiring. Now hes being too sensible and really picking his shots and being much more composed and dull. Sure it tightens up his game a little, but it takes away his biggest strengths, his unpredictability and when he goes wild, no one can match..

    Mayweather is definitely more entertaining to those who prefer a skillfully technician displaying mastery of the sweet science, or those who like complete domination and outclassing of an opponent.

    While others prefer two warriors just beating each other in the head, and see who gets knocked out the first.
