Pac in is prime athleticism was far far ahead of Mayweathers he was so good that he got away with many things because of his athleticism
Floyd would always look better against Pac because he's just a much better boxer but if we just look at their athleticism I definitely think you can make a good case for prime Pac being as good or better athlete in some aspects.
No he wasn't he never had better reflexes than PBF period. nor did he have faster hand speed prime for prime.
What would happen if they fought a young Floyd? The same outcome. Floyd always finds a way to win where Pac gets out boxed, knocked out or put to sleep! Floyds will to win is and always will be greater than Pac's tenfold.:good
I think people forget the 130 version of Mayweather was just that good. Not only did he have the faster reflexes and hand speed. He was also a more aggressive offensively as well. If you think this fight against Pac was a one sided affair him fighting Floyd at 130 would not go well at all for him. Floyd still holds all the physical advantages he had in this fight plus he was more offensive minded. Mayweather was actually looking to stop opponents back then and sat on his punches to get them put out of there in the late rounds.
The difference between Floyd and Pac is "chin and will". Floyd has the better chin and when under fire, Floyd turns it up where Pac's chin fails him!
No need to when you can land clean with one shot but IMO he could 2 or 3 just as fast. I can admit that #48 is a faster multi punch combo thrower.
Exactly. PBF at 130 had no real weakness and was an absolute terror one of the most complete fighters in the history of the sport at 130.
Well great fighters have losses Floyd's never been in danger because he fights journeymen and faded fighters ! Congratulations for rooting for an all time great cherry picker !
Actually Floyd has done quite the opposite. Most of his opponents either have belts or are coming off wins (or multiple wins) at the time. As a matter of fact his last 7 wins have come against opponents who were current champions and for the most part in their prime. I guess you want to say when he fought Shane, that Shane was "faded" but he had just come off a pretty dominating win against Marg. The very same person Floyd haters here say Floyd is afraid of.
