    Pac by a country mile.

    Floyd screwed Marquez on weight.

    Floyd refused to let Marcos Maidana wear his preferred gloves.

    Floyd used illegal IVs in his fight against Pac.

    Floyd fought a young, green, and drained Clenelo 10 years ago.

    Floyd lost to Castillo but got a gift.

    Floyd ducked prime Cotto, Margarito, and Pacquiao.

    Pacquiao's career had more peaks and valleys than Mayweather's. Looking at Mayweather he was consistently excellent. But he never put on a performance like Barrera I or Cotto. On those 2 nights Pacquiao looked like God on Earth.

    Just a note that the IVs can often be used to mask PED usage. We don't know why Floyd was hooked up to an IV and can only speculate. However the truth seems obviously to me... a man with no bias.

    Pacquiao by a mile.

    We'll never ever see someone dominate from Flyweight to Welterweight again.

    Floyd 26 World title fights with only 4 not being in Las Vegas iirc. Alleged failed tests,hand injections,illegal iv use,missing weight.NSAC certainly had his back,he even had a contract with the USADA,3 failed tests but the USADA gave him an inadvertent use waiver. Lance Armstrong never failed a test but eventually he was thrown under the bus .

    Floyd did everything he could to protrct his zero.
    The deck stacking and carefull matchmaking makes it a smoke and mirrors career.

    Pacquiao & it's never even been close no matter how many certain talking heads desperately want you to believe it is.

    About equal
    Floyd is clearly the better boxer, but manny took more risks and climbed more divisions

    I change my mind often about who's greater,, but I never change my mind on who's better

    Both amazing with horrible fanbases. I tend to stick up for Floyd more, as he gets WAY too much hate on these forums. He's not a great human being, but this is a boxing site, not a personality contest

    Both are legit ATG fighters and deserve respect
