    i never thought that pacquiao has alot of hater until the day that mayweather's name started to appear with his name in the same sentence..pac is supposed to be the one to put boxing in the mainstream until the mayweather/pac fight falls off..after that, all i know is that people started to call him a cherry picker/ducker/cheater/overrated and stuffs likes that..

    I'm certainly not one who would argue that Raheem is a greater fighter than Morales. Certainly he isn't.

    However, @ that time, Morales was shot and Raheem was just a better fighter. Hence, a Pacquiao victory over Raheem would have been a better win.

    That said, over the long term, having two KO victories over a legend probably looks better on his resume now that the circumstances aren't in recent memory.

    i agree with everything you said. both pac and floyd have very good resumes and the only victory i give pac more credit for is the Cotto fight as opposed to the JMM fight for floyd. Regardless of the way pac took out hatton and DLH, Floyd victories over both surpass pac's since he got to them first when they were each considered some of the best fighters in the sport. Barrera 1 was his best win without a doubt though. Funny how no one has responded to this post to tear it down yet....guess they got no response. I especially like how you point out that if floyd had picked margo over baldomir, they would have said exactly what you figured..."why is floyd ducking the WW linear champ who beat judah"....like the man says, he can never win in the eyes of the general public.

    biased opinion. the article talked more about pac's resume than mayweather's. can't he assess mayweather's resume without referring to pac's?

    Caneman. I agree with you, buy you do realize that the world doesn't revolve around Pacquiao? Most great fighters through History have been given excuses for losses? You know this?

    It's amazing at the large number of people who want to hold "Floyd Fans" to some kind of Higher Standard of posting, yet there are 20-30 "Floyd-Hating" threads a day (posted by *******s and Pav-lickers) and half of those threads have nothing to do with Boxing.

    So when a Floyd fan hypes "Money" and shits on other fighters in the process (mainly pac)...all of sudden "It's poor Forum Etiquette".

    what are you like 16 years old?

    And none of that changes the fact that 90% of this guy's opinion on Floyd's resume is about Pacquiao.
