    PAC has one of the greatest resumes and is a 7 Division champ/beltholder. If he ko's Floyd would you See him as TBE? Or greatest?
    Whats your opinion?

    8-division*

    The best ever is a fantasy ranking which no consensus can be reached upon. But to me nobody can surpass SRR.

    Catchweight king. People crucify Floyd for fighting Canelo at 152, but Manny won his at 150 :rofl.
     
  5. Vacated the belt almost immediately. Floyd's considered "The Man" at Super Welter, yet he drained a green Canelo and won't defend it against GGG or Lara or any other legit Super Welter.

    Manny is much smaller, he is only 143 right now, Floyd is 151

    You do realize Manny started at 106 and went to 150 whereas Floyd started at 130 and going to 154 would nearly be going half the way Manny did? Floyd is naturally much bigger, he'd need to go light heavyweight to replicate what Manny did.

    GGG isn't 154 and nobody wants to see Lara fight anybody ever again :conf

    Pacquiao's belt at 154 is as fake as a belt can get tbh. Wasn't fought at 154, Margarito wasn't a champion, it was jsut a belt given to Pacquiao because it sounds really nice if you say "8 division belt holder", but don't investigate it. Canelo was a champion who had defended the belt plenty of times, won the lineal title against Trout, and then lost to Mayweather. Of course Mayweather is considered the man at light middleweight, he beat the champion of the division.

    I get you're a pacquiao fan, but settle down cool guy

    these qu33rs will question floyds belt at 154 cause it was a catchweight.....but when they talk ggg/cotto they say cotto should fight ggg because cotto has the title....lol...go figure

    They both started at the same place, Floyd was just an amateur while Pacquiao wasn't. Settle down on the fake statistics and realize that the jump between welterweight and light heavyweight is 30 pounds, which is 45 weight classes at the lower weights.

    Pacquiao fans rely on things that sound impressive, but fall apart under scrutiny.

    Floyd was always naturally bigger, he was fighting 126 at 1996 while Manny was fighting 110. That's why Floyd not fighting at 154 when Manny did at 150 was rightfully criticized.

    Floyd was also fighting at 106 in 1994. They both started at 106.

    Mayweather is criticized because people hate him, no other reason. Pacquiao deserves credit for fighting Margarito, he genuinely does. He was much smaller and it was a risky fight on paper, but he doesn't deserve credit for winning a light middleweight belt. Floyd absolutely does, considering he beat a legit champion in the division.
