    Doesn't matter.

    Pac's chin gets hit, Mayweather's doesn't.

    I know who I'd rather be.

    Pacquiao's has been tested more often at the higher weights, also tested more often at the lower weights. That's a credit to both boxers really, Mayweather's doesn't get tested often due to his great defense, whereas Pacquiao's has held up to some great boxers/punches.

    pac would have been kd'd or ko'd by two of younger shane's shots. the ones mayweather took and easily recovered from. just want to get it out there as they'd surely use it as a comparison.

    another one, money laughed at pee pee mouths punches while pac got hurt and took them seriously. so my answer is money got much better defense, chin and recuperative skills.

    hard to say.. floyd rarely gets tagged flush on the button and pac weight drains alot of his opponents down

    Again with this ****.

    You know that catchweight fights have existed since the beginning of last century?

    Stop bitching about it.

    Both got solid chins so defensive capabilities would be a far more relevant question to ponder.

    Well, Pac's defense has improved dramatically but I still consider it inferior to Floyd's.. :smoke

    But it doesn't mean you have to use them. Steroids have existed for a long time doesn't mean you have to use it

    I think they have relatively similar chins, Manny just gives himself and his opponents more opportunities to prove it. Though Floyd is more mentally adverse to getting hit, which is a part of his defensive style, but it plays a part in the way he reacts.

    I was pointing out that just because both of them have been around along time doesn't mean you can't complain about them. Both are used by fighters to gain an advantage aswell.
