Pacquiao still better than anyone PBF has ever faced. Agree?

    I think Manny MIGHT beat a prime DLH since DLH was no good vs. South paws. DLH was a better fighter than both though imo.

    Cotto at 154 was a tougher fight than Pacquiao by a mile.

    With OSDT testing pacquiao doesn't stand a chance... I'd probably be willing to bet an early to mid ko... Roideao would be embarrassed like never b4 in his cheating career! Cotto best comp so far!!

    On paper, yes
    In practice? no

    If the Floyd who beat Cotto turns up against the Manny that "beat" Marquez or "lost" to Bradley - Floyd beats the pants off of Pacquaio and makes it seem easy.

    Prime Oscar would have shat on both Mayweather and Pacquaio.

    No kidding. even "coked up cutting, an album when you should be training" Delahoya would have gave them hell back in the early 2000s.

    The 135 lb version? Forget about it.

    He always had problems with faster fighters, look at the gift he got against Sweet Pea.

    I think any version of Oscar struggles with Pacquaio if they're between 135-147 and any version of Oscar struggles with Mayweather right up to 160.

    I dont know, Pac hasnt fought anyone relevant in years except for Marquez n Bradley n look how that turned out. His last good win was against Cotto and he didnt have a trainer and it had to be at a catchweight. So i really dont know. Id say Cotto and Marquez are better fighters than Pacquiao. They had to earn their legacy.

    Hatton was a cherrypick?! :lol:

    The weight made zero difference in this fight as Mayweather was a small welterweight, exactly the same reason the weight made no difference in the fight with Pac and Bradley.
