didn't you and I once have a bet that if Pacquiao beat Hatton you would no longer talk to me about Pacquiao.
Mayweather and Oscar have never lost to a shot fighter, or two unknown journey men. I can't see Pac beating a prime DLH. Mayweather went to a SD against an aging Oscar. Prime Oscar was so much better than the version PBF fought. Obviously the version that Pac fought would have lost to even Calderon.
Damn good poll, and hard to decide. Gatti at his very best wouldn't have had a chance in Hell against Floyd Mayweather at his very worst...Pacquiao took Hatton out too damn quick. He didn't have to overcome any adversity. I guess I would have to go with Oscar, but that is not to say that the Oscar that beat Chavez could beat the Pacquiao who beat Hatton, or the Mayweather who beat Gatti...
Oscar by far he dominated a still great fighter. Floyd's win over Gatti is not that impressive he just did the same thing Oscar, Manfredy, Baldomir and Gomez did to Gatti. That Pacquiao is amazing but gets KOed savegly by prime Oscar.
I'm going to change my vote to "neither". It's just too hard to say. Mayweather did look absolutely flawless against Gatti, but come on...it was Gatti...I will say this, though, do you think Gatti could have took those punches from Pacquiao and not went down? Oscar was much younger and fresher than Chavez, and Pacquiao simply took advantage Hatton's mistakes.
Oh the certified pac hater is back... still in the fantasy world...still in the fantasy world of ...would have...could have! :rofl
Your are one delusional ****ed up individual that obviously doesnt understand styles of fighters = different looking results. Funny how you picked THIS CURRENT VERSION of FM to beat THAT VERSION of MP when you thought the fight was a go ahead & this version of FM was if anything, lesser than the version that beat Gatti :think.... dont give me the size bull**** because we all know its minimal enough to let the BETTER FIGHTER decide the outcome. FM could go out there & dominate MP for 11 straight rds like he did JMM & punctuate it with a blinding KO in the 12th & you would still refuse to admit that he is superior to MP... the `size` would likely be your get out clause. Thats all !
I thought Pac was getting back into the ring too soon after his last fight. Not enough time to relax, recuperate, and train for a new style. Combine that with the fight happening at 147, i gave the edge to Floyd. Though there are some fighters i'm more a fan of then others, when I make my picks I stay level headed because if the odds are favourable my money will back up my mouth. But i said from the beginning, if Pac fights a tuneup and then fights Floyd in the fall, even at 147, Pac will beat him in a close, near tossup fight. If they fight at a lower weight, Pac will eat him up. This might actually happen, and just like i didn't change my word before, i won't after.
Assuming both win & they actually get the fkn thing signed this time around.... Id take a bet with anyone, avater, months off etc. that FM will beat his ass.
Its hard for me to say being as how they all fought different opponents with way different styles..... But I will say, Head 2 Head at that time period, Mayweather is the best in my opinion.
The reason being that FM cannot get below the WW limit anymore, he would be a walking corpse. You cant seriously believe that the 130 lb version of MP would beat the 130 lb version of FM... please tell me you werent heading in that direction.
