    Yes - wins over at the time #2 and #3 in the world is more impressive than what Pacquaio has done.

    Considering the people Pacquaio recently beat were beaten first by Floyd.

    Yes, and I don’t see how Pac would do a better job. I'm sure the Moseley who fought Floyd would have Pac rocked in more than an occasion. I don't see him winning and it might end with a KO, but it would be much closer than his fight with Floyd.

    Pac could have pummelled the Mosley that mayweather fought like he pummeled miguel cotto. Floyd stays at number 2

    Pacs resume still overshadows Floyds big time.

    Shane was also very flat, leading me to believe that Floyd took the fight at the right time. That's not hating, that's obvious.

    Mayweather already should have been #1 before the fight. And now after the fight, especially with Pacquiao's continued pussyfooting, it's blatently obvious that he's the best in the world.

    THE RING is sticking with Pacquiao as its No.1 fighter -- barely.

    “The debate among members of THE RING’s Ratings Advisory Panel concerning who should be No. 1 pound for pound was fairly evenly divided between Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather,” Collins said. “Manny and Floyd could very well be considered No. 1A and No. 1B. However, the tricky thing about the pound-for-pound ratings is that they are much more subjective than the divisional ratings, which are objective and based on results within the division.

    “In the end, Pacquiao held onto the top spot due to his slightly better overall body of work and the difficulty involved in demoted a fighter coming off a virtual shutout performance such as Pacquiao’s victory over Joshua Clottey.”

    Other respected boxing journalists don’t agree. One of them is Kevin Iole of Yahoo! Sports, our partner.

    “I have great respect for what Pacquiao has accomplished in the last three years and there is a very legitimate argument that he has accomplished more in the ring than Mayweather,” Iole said. “That said, the fight with Mosley proved conclusively to me why Mayweather is the best. He fought offensively and stalked a man many thought he would run from. Yet, even though Floyd fought offensively, Mosley could still barely touch him. Mosley only landed 42 power shots in the entire fight, but what is incredible to me is that 13 of those were in the second round. Other than the second, Mosley landed fewer than three power shots a round. That's a testament to Floyd's skill as a fighter.”

    Floyd has always been pfp the best. Floyd is the best fighter in the world today, and has been for a while now.
