    Mayweather - having trouble with C level fighters like Maidana

    Pacquiao - coming off the most devastating KO in boxing history

    If Maidana is C then what are Broner, Khan, Malignaggi, DeMarco ect?
    To call a current top 10 WW C level is due to clouded judgement.

    I vote Pacquiao. The last time he looked his old self was Marquez IV and we might never see anything quite like it from him again due to the KO.

    Even Floyd said Manny would never be the same again after he tried to make out with the canvas.

    Pacquiao has clearly slipped more unless Mayweather was somehow KTFO like Pacquiao wthout me knowing it.

    Pacquiao's style has always relied more on his immense physical attributes, while Mayweather while immensely talented as well has a big technical aspect to his overall ability which will not diminish with age like physical attributes.

    Well recently Pac has been dominating guys whereas Floyd struggled twice with Marcos Maidana.

    But its all irrelevant. May the best man win.

    pac went back to his usual cherries coming off KTFO6

    Algieri an Bradley are feather fisted

    And the other guy he fought was a slow limited punchbag


    What is interesting is Mayweather too is feather fisted

    Not as weak as Timmeh or Algieri, but weak nonetheless


    If Manny tastes that power, and isnt phased, Floyd's in for a long night

    The dude is ranked top 5 by various organisations in one of the most competitive divisions. That's A level material even with a few questionable losses. You could at least call him B level if you have suspicions but C level, it's simply unfair.

    Pac, specially since his style requires youth and speed and has been in more wars while Floyd's style last longer and took easy fights.

    But...

    Pac showed more heart and diligence in fighting the styles that gave him the worse problems in JMM, Bradley, etc.

    This is what makes his chances in this fight better than 5 years ago.

    WBC ranks him 3rd
    WBA ranks him 3rd
    Ring ranks him 8th

    Please do not call such a top fighter a "C level" and then laugh when someone corrects you. You truly sound uninformed.
