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

    If because Manny is smaller that makes him greater, then David Haye is an ATG at heavy for beating Valuev.

    so wtf does that have to do with my statement. i dont see floyd pulling for a fight above 147 unless its with a past prime part timer. pac has considered several fights above 147 and arum settled on margo. i dont give a **** if you think margo is crap, its still more risk than i see floyd take.

    :rofl De la hoya at 154 was a far better fighter then Margarito. In his last fight, Margarito beat a c-level fighter in a decision in which Margarito didn't look good at all. And Floyd didn't fought a bs catchweight when he fought De la hoya while Pacquiao will fight Margarito in a bs catchweight for a bs paper belt.

    pure opinion of a guy who gets called an idiot at least twice a day on this forum. no one takes your opinion on floyd seriously.

    Says the guy that thinks Margarito at a bs 150 pound catchweight is more of a threat then De la hoya at 154 pounds. :rofl Yea sure bandeedo. You didn't say the exact word but you sure talking like it.

    Not for nothing but Clottey and Cotto are better than Judah and Baldomir. And Manny totally demolished them. If Mayweather had fought Tszu and Casamayor we have some comparison but since not Manny already locked up 147 ahead of Floyd.

    If it were even in opponent quality then the weight would be the tie breaker and you would give Floyd the nod, but since there is no comparison being Cotto and Clottey are way tougher fights than Judah and Baldomir and the fashion Manny defeated them down the road nobody would argue that.

    If Floyd didn't make JMM come up 17lbs and pay to have a 4 lb advantage double the 2bs away from 147 you mentioned I could make sense of that nitpicking. Since Floyd made a mockery in the making of the JMM fight how can anyone take that Cotto victory away from Pac when comparing Floyd and Manny at welterweight. If the fight said welterweight and the belt said welterweight its a welterweight.

    Pac: DLH, Cotto, Clottey and soon Margo in a span of 2 years. That is impressive.

    Very impressive Floyd needed one real opponent to make his claim at 147. Manny has him at Welterweight and every other weight below where they both fought which is why he got fighter of the decade.
