    Folks, this may be a first on ESB, maybe not. Delete it if not.

    I am here saying we have witnessed 2 of the best fighters of our era and it has been an honor watching them.

    Floyd Mayweather:
    48-0
    5 Division Champ
    2x FOY
    Beat many legends

    Manny Pacquiao:
    57-6-2
    8 Division Champ
    3x FOY
    Beat many legends

    Kudos to both fighters for a great career that is still ongoing.

    Good thread.

    One is rich in material possessions. The other rich in his blessings.

    Both have their faults.= One has lost a few tough fights and liked to drink alcohol on occasion. The other is undefeated and beat the **** out of the mother of his children right in front of them.

    Two active boxing icons.

    Yes. Shot out to both guys. They are both the last of a dying breed along with Marquez and Hopkins, Jones and a few others still hanging around. We probably won't see any more fighters like these guys in a while.

    Its a great idea for a thread.
    Kudos.

    It will undoubtedly be ruined by trolls in due course though

    As years go by, both guys will be more appreciated by fans alike. Unfortunately for now there will always be hate and debate

    What's your guys favorite moment from each fighter?
    No posts having to do with Mayweather vs Pac.

    For both fighters i'd actually have to be against the same opponent Ricky Hatton, Both showed great skill dispatching him. Mayweather even out-hustled him on the inside. And Pac blinded Hatton with his speed and power.

    This thread will quickly descent to bold criticism peppered with trollism.
