    Was the before or after the infinite dodges of drug tests? The cut that needed nine months to heal? The outdoor stadium for a boxing match?

    Talk to my promoter.

    Tell that to the UK or Africa

    Have a meme, friend

    The problem with people like you is that you only tell one side of the story. You act as if it was strictly PBF's fault that this fight was never made when in fact both had a hand in it. You also blame PBF for not fighting guys like Casa but I could do the same for Pac. He chose to fight David Diaz at 135 instead of Campbell or Guzman chose to fight Clottey a guy coming off a lose and a guy no one demanded that he fight. Do you see how this works?

    Has to be Mayweather he was dominating when no one even knew Pacquiao was winning a title at 112 and getting koed Mayweather best a hall of famer in his first title fight just his 18 pro fight. Went to fight like 17 less fights than manny but has beaten more world champions and possibly more hall of famers. Also he beat his best competition after they won huge fights not after they took a beating or hadn't won in a while Pacquiao did this with Hatton Mosley cotto dlh and Margarito....Mosley hadn't won a fight in years dlh fought at weight he hadn't fought in 7years....people have to look past promotion smoke and mirrors.....it's not who you beat but also when you beat them.

    Pac moves up to WW:

    Fights DLH after loss to PBF / Broken orbital bone to Steve Forbes. At weight of 147. Fight night Oscar weighs 145 pounds.

    Fights Hatton after Hatton KO'd by Floyd and looks like utter ****, almost losing to everyone he faced, after Floyd.

    Fights Cotto after Cotto is plastered by Margs an given a gift decision versus Clottey, where he looked like a scared ****.

    Fights Mosley after Floyd dominates him and some no-namer fights him to a draw at 154.

    Fights Clottey - who?

    Fights Tim Bradley for his first fight at 147 (I don't even count the Casamayor fight as it was a joke)

    Fights JMM at 38 years old, hoping to finally look good. Loses but is given the win.

    Fights JMM at 39 years old, hoping Father Time is going to be enough of a help at this point. Result:

    Manny built a career off cherry picking fragile opponents.

    Floyd didn't take every challenge, but he always fights people coming off career victories.

    It is a little odd that the people Floyd is accused of ducking happen to all have the same Promoter

    these pictures, although rough and harsh, are quite funny

    Quite fitting that you're posting wrestling photos, since I'm pretty sure that's how you came to be a fan of Floyd in the first place.

    Otherwise, you would most assuredly realize we can do the same thing to Floyd's resume WITHOUT even looking behind the names.

    Bruseles, Gatti, Mitchell and Judah off a loss, then fighting pretty much 1 time a year for the next six years.

    :lol:

    Disgraceful.

    Go back to watching Floyd's fight with Big Show, it's probably his best win in years.

    Pac multi-weight accomplishments are still more impressive. I think Pac is a few notches above, but it's close.

    great post all facts people forget it's when you beat a fighter...Mayweather always beat guys after career wins....the smoke and mirrors of great promotion made many look better and the wins look better than what they yearly were

    Gatti just had beat ward twice and Branco for the belt. Fights many had on the biggest stage his opponents took bad beatings or hadn't won in a while
    You gotta be digging real hard considering everyone knew Bruxelles was a time up fight as was Mitchell at new weights Judah did lose but get koed or take severe beatings like Hatton cotton

    Mayweather is easily the greatest fighter of his generation

    Manny Pacquiao without a doubt... Mr. Feathers has hand picked all his fights and he fights once every 15 months! Void is a hype job...
