    Maybe, maybe not.

    I don't think he's so far ahead of Manny that a bad KO loss wouldn't make it close, but it's pretty subjective.

    And I don't agree with that either. I much prefer the sort of "kill or be killed" attitude of guys like Duran, or more recently, Gatti or Diego Corales. But I also the accomplishments of guys like Mayweather or Wlad Klitschko, even if I don't necessarily find their fights the most entertaining to watch.

    And I think it is reallly unfortunate the Mayweather has not fought Pacquiao, but I don't think it detracts from his accomplishments much. I think most people who are unbiased are pretty much in agreement that prime for prime, Mayweather wins.

    The fact is that Void, Sr. said that Void, Jr. would never fight Pac. He said that right after Pac stopped Cotto...............and you see that that fight has never happened. Styles make fights and Pac is the wrong style for Void. Void has a reason to run from Pac. The fans want to see that fight, but Void is still running. If Pac were an easy fight for Void, then Void would have already fought him..........

    You mean the Cotto Margarito destroyed? LMFAO. Styles makes fights? What style does Pac have. The predicatable style? The can't handle movement style? The KTFO three times style? The wrong socks style?

    Remember 3 years ago when most of you guys were swept up in the media frenzied moment and thought that Pacquiao was better or had the better resume than Mayweather?

    I told you you would look dumb.

    And if you still think Mayweather isn't the best of the era, I will just fall back on the opinions of every respected trainer and Floyd's fighting peers. You can pat yourself on the back for feeling even dumber if you just read that and for even a slight instant thought that your opinion was even remotely as significant as theirs.
