Ok this is your thread , so answer your own question. Who on Mayweathers resume is better than Manny?
I actually believe, for better or worse, that Keith Thurman would be a tougher challenge at this stage.
Stylewise it's the most challenging for floyd. Pac is arguably even at this stage is the fastest guy floyd will fight. Ok maybe judah had a slight edge, but unlike judah pac has the stamina, and mental toughness to go 12 hard rounds. Also unlike floyd's recent opponents pac has been in a lot of mega fights himself so he will not be fazed by the spectacle. He has just as much experience in this type of environment as floyd does.
That might be true. But I'm asking about Mayweather's whole career. Surely he's faced better opponents than the 2015 version of Pacquiao ... ?
But if it's true then that's quite shocking. I've been a boxing fan for three decades but I must admit I haven't followed all the welters and lightweights of the last 10 or 15 years. All those younger guys he fought in recent years ... Guererro, Ortiz, Alvarez .. how did they compare with 2015 Pacquiao ?
No I don't think so. Prime and undefeated Hatton might be slightly better than this version of Manny, also Cotto @ 154. Mayweather has a solid resume not sure where I'd rank 36 year old Pacquiao on that list.
