    You cant train for Bradley , He has the style where he can do a little bit of everything . That right there makes him a dangerous fight for any fighter including Floyd .

    No way in hell TB would a cherry pick for any fighter . Bradley would be the fastest fighter with the most movement that Floyd has fought in YEARS .

    How does 37 year old Floyd reacts to that ?

    I think Floyd and Manny will both go down as ATGs.

    DELUSIONAL- ODLH fought PAC after being outta the ring for dam near 2 years after fighting Money. ODLH took that fight for 1 reason ! 15% of Pac every fight thereafter and it worked quite well. We all knew ODLH had no chance at 147lbs which he hadn't fought at in 7 years. ODLH was weight drained with needle marks from the I.V. in his arm due to dehydration. Freddie Roach said, " Oscar belonged in the ring with nobody that night. His face was red from dehydration and you could even see the needle marks in his arm. He looked exhausted!"

    Pac will be remembered as a great fighter. He'll never get credit for becoming the great boxer over the last 5 years that he's become...

    I truly believe that you'll say the name Mayweather in the same breath as Armstrong, Langford & Pep when it's all said and done !

    He will go down as a all time great. Same as floyd, if you dispute that then you are just a *******/*****.

    The best thing about Pac's resume is that it's difficult to name any fighter in history that could go through his resume with better results that he did. Forget Hatton, Cotto, and Bradley. Can you name a former flyweight that could beat David Diaz?

    Very few fighters share this distinction

    You mean win? A ko, tko, sd, md...ect all means the same thing.. A win is a win.. Unless you say that a guy who has power and knocks out someone is always better than a guy who don't ko people but wins easily anyway...

    Even the GOAT SRR can't do that,,... He's too big to drain himself to flyweight,,... :lol: zbut to answer your question,,... Nonito Donaire can beat David Diaz,,...

    Top 10,his achievements prove it.duran gets credit for moving up 5 divisions but he was never dominant above lightweight,PAC has dominated every weight division thru 8 divisions
