    Exactly..

    being more polished especially at running doesn't make you a better fighter than the other which is also effective with his style in winning fights..

    to be the best you have to beat fighters of different styles and face your toughest competitions IMO..

    Pacquiao is leading so far unless Mayweather beats him.

    Floyd has the skills but lacks a little in resume, he could have both. I would say Floyd first because I assume he would win most of the fights people want him to fight but that's not fair, he has to actually fight them. I say Manny right now.

    Jones is ahead of Mayweather by any measure, in my opinion. He has a better resume, and he was better head to head.

    Everyone on this site should read this post and understand you can be a fan of a fighter without having to be a fanboy.

    JMM would be moving from LW to WW to face Mayweather. Dude, that is two weight divisions higher. Even if Mayweather beats Marquez, it would likely even tarnish his legacy than improve it. Mayweather's decision to fight JMM is truly a BS move.

    PBF will be fighting an older JMM who is coming up from 135...a bit different to Pac fighting JMM in his prime at 126/130. Using your logic, I could say PBF stuggled with DLH squeeking out an SD, Pac destroyed him...same with Hatton.

    Mayweather Jr is a better fighter than Pacquiao, but he hasn't done himself any favors by avoiding the best fighters in his division.

    Manny Pacquiao is the best of his era.

    A fair call. IMO Jones is clearly ahead of PBF on ability though.

    To be honest until both fighters are retired, u really can't say yet. If I had to say, I would say it's even right now.
