    They both have done a lot. I think Pac has accomplished more though and was already a shoe-in all timer before he even came up to the ww divisions.. Floyd has incredible skills but didn't test himself to the fullest he could have in the ww divisions. I am sure the fight will not happen, Floyd will probably fight like once more or never again, and Pac can't be around much longer either so I say they stay right where they are at.

    It won't contribute to them moving up in the standings. Pretty simple and self-explanatory.

    Glad I could help.

    If they never fight, Pacquiao will be ranked higher by history, for sure.

    His resume and achievements top Mayweather's, simple as that.

    They will both go down top 30-40 anyway (with Pac a few places higher) but the winner would probably creep into the top 20 leaving the other guy in the 30-40 range.

    History will look back and think that Pac might not have been clean. Not saying he's using anything, but in 10 years, when standard testing is the norm, everyone will look back and wonder 'what was the big deal. everyone now gets tested anyway, so...'

    Granted, I'm making the assumption that OST is imminent, but it should be & it probably will be. And if it is, the people looking back on these negotiations will find Pac's not taking the tests more fishy than Mayweather's antics.

    For example, does anyone today NOT think there was something in Aaron Pryor's 'special' water bottle during Pryor-Arguello I?

    Both fighters are top 35 ATG fighters.

    You can only be judged on who you did fight not who you didnt.
