    i dont think he was every dirty but he should have taken the test. after jmm last fight he wants the test because hes thinking how the hell did he ko me like that.
    well thats what the test is for, to remove all doubts. if the cop says can we search your car you say yea if nothing to hide or no if you have something to hide or dont feel like going through the bs. pac aint want to go through the bs but he did after jmm fight :good

    if he was every dirty it was because of ariza, thats the guy i dont trust. he reminds me of arron pryor trainer always doing some extra **** for that extra edge.

    First, Pac didn't land much. He missed a lot. Plus, I thought he was not commiting when throwing. The Marquez KO must have played in his head. He probably also lost power but the two first reason seem to play a bigger factor.

    Pacquiao was never a 1 punch KO guy. He's an accumulator. Prodovnikov hits harder than Pacquiao.It doesn't mean he hits like Floyd. Much harder than Floyd!!But not as hard as Prodovnikov. I would say better than average he can whack but it has been overrated. Usually boxers get up after being KD by the Pacman.

    When Canelo beat Shane shane hadn't won a fight in more than three years. When Bradley fought Marquez Marquez was coming off his legacy defining win.

    Yeah but he's getting bigger and bigger as he ages. He cuts ALOT of weight. Failed to make even 54 against Angulo.

    I'm not saying you're wrong that Floyd could beat him at 54, but this isn't really relevant for our discussion here. We aren't talking about hypotheticals, we're talking about the significance the real world accomplishments of these two wins have comparatively.

    Again. This is irrelevant. We're not talking about hypotheticals, we're talking about the comparison of these two victories under the circumstances in which they actually took place.

    if if if if if if if if if, if if were a 5th we would all be drunk.

    bottom line mayweather beating canelo is the better win. had mayweather beat bradley and pacquaio beat canelo there would not even be a poll. keep it 100 people i knows its hard for you but keep it a 100.

    And Canelo was 6.5 lbs heavier at weigh in and 15+lbs heavier at fight night. 152 Canelo Destroys 145.5 Bradley.

    If Mayweather smoked Bradley 12-0 and Pac squeaked by Canelo 115-113, the Canelo win is vastly superior. That's not what happened. Canelo was shut out and Bradley lost 116-112.

    Bradley is and was the more proven fighter with the resume to match. He's my choice here.

    Also, Angulo should be taken off of Canelo's resume for this thread since that fight happened after Floyd defeated him. Even including him, his ledger can't match up to Tim's yet.

    That doesn't mean Canelo won't go on to do big things, but he hadn't really shown he was a P4P fighter at the time of the Floyd fight, whereas Bradley earned his P4P spot by fighting top competition for years heading in to the Pac fight.

    The Pacman win over Bradley is worth more but Floyds performance against Canelo was better. I don't care if you're too dumb to get that sentence, I'm a fan of both a hope I'm alive for the day they finally fight each other.

    This, I can agree with. The bolded makes sense :thumbsup

    I thought Floyd delivered a more crisp performance than Pac did, which was balanced out by Tim being more experienced and tougher to beat overall.

    He really does remind me of a mini-Holyfield- Tim may not have many elite physical tools like great measurables or one-punch power, but he's well rounded enough to be very good in most areas, tough as nails, and just knows how to win. The only other fighter that'd make him look that bad is Floyd (who, for my money, would make him look worse since Tim's a little too musclebound to not wing many of his shots wide).

    Poll results are close... yes people still think Pacquiao has a chance to beat Mayweather.

    Depends on how Mayweather looks against a 1 dimensional slugger in Maidana.
