    Based on their last two fights, you can definitely make a case that Floyd's fights have looked more grittier and more exciting to watch.

    Err no. look through my history, I am not a **** or a mo.


    This result means little as I am neutral on Pac and Bradley, I picked Bradley then bottled it when I saw a pre fight interview with him all vexed and ****.

    The comments I made are from the perspective of someone neutral, observing dicks on here sprouting **** about there fighter.

    As a boxing fan it gets tedious.

    Pac ain't my man, don't confuse me with a fan boy.

    I follow boxing, not a single fighter.

    As someone who watches with other casual fans I can say it's Mayweather's promotion of his '*******' image and various dramas that sell his tickets. That whole thing about his skill is appreciated, but only up to a point unless you're a boxing aficionado rather than a sports fan who watches boxing as most people are.

    For the rest of us you aren't boxing diehards, Mayweather has become more interesting because he's coming forward more and taking more shots. He still doesn't get all over your ass the way Pac used to; but now that Pac appears to have lost his fire, it may well be that Mayweather is more exciting.

    So I agree that today's Mayweather might be more exciting, because he's revealing a new aggression and vulnerability, whereas Pac is disappointing with his new conservative approach against our memories of his earlier gusto.

    Pac is pretty much done as a fighter. He's lost his fire and he's physically far too declined. It's understandable, his style is not suited for longevity. Mayweather and out-fighters & counter-punchers are more suited toward longevity. James Toney was more entertaining in the ring than Jack Dempsey or Chavez was at 35... this speaks more about Floyd becoming more fan-friendly and less about Pac.

    I thought Pac-Marquez was far more exciting than Mayweather-Ortiz. Part of that was because of Marquez.

    KO ing some guy who had his hands down and cheating viewers of a proper fight and struggling with Miguel Cotto is not great. Admittedly Pac's last few fights haven't been the best but FloydS havent either. Pacquaio was incredible to watch for most of his career. I do like watching Floyd and think he is a great fighter but some people need to get off his nuts big time. Pacquaio sets a far better example to people overall as a human and a fighter.

    Lets put it this way.
    Pac is not very exciting to watch at all.
    Both him and Bradley belong in the same catagory.

    it's always been that way for people that understand boxing. casuals will always favour the brawlers but that's how it is

    lately though even the casuals would be more impressed by mayweather
