    Without being attacked by fan boys the same for Pac as well, a reality check for both set's of fan boys is needed.

    They are equally to blame for not making the fight.

    Pac has the better legacy

    Floyd has the better skill set

    Floyd is not the GOAT and neither is PAC

    Floyd does and continues to cherry pick

    Pac's best wins at higher weights have been C/W and it does take some of gloss off those wins

    im sure floyd has flaws.. everyone does its just no one has shown them yet.

    at 37 years of age id say if you had a relentless volume puncher it might cause floyd problems but his natural counter punching lowers the output of all his opponents... its really hard to say

    Everyone has flaws. The problem here is that it will take a first class opponent to exploit Mayweather's flaws and even a first class opponent will face difficulties doing so. Fighters like Guerrero, Ortiz and Maidana aren't exploiting jack.

    A lot of Pacs biggest wins were retreads of people already beaten by Mayweather.

    You can discuss Floyds flaws with real boxing fans, not fan boys.

    I don't know. Flaws might be to strong a word. I'm no expert, but he tends to back up in straight lines so that he can counter better. So a guy with great head movement and fast feet might be able to get to his body. Like I said I'm no expert. Do you see anything in his game that could be seen as a "flaw", maybe now that he is older?

    Not always, he moves to the side pretty good as well, see Canelo fight.

    Mayweather would humiliate Pacqiauo if they fought.

    But that fight doesnt seem likely now

    Hatton for 5 rounds and Castillo showed how he can be beaten. Problem is your not just fighting Floyd your fighting the ref as well.
    I am not saying Hatton would have beaten Floyd here by the way before anyone starts but he was winning rounds by cutting off that ring and coming in off the jab faint and going down to the body.

    To many people try to head hunt against Floyd and you are never going to hit him often enough to win that way. Cut off teh ring you will have to eat a few shots but his body is there to be attacked.

    I think Floyd has quite a few flaws , but none that a Maidana could expose.

    The biggest one in recent times was the first six rounds against Hatton , he constantly turned his back . It was only his size and fitness that slowed Hatton down.

    Against someone like Trinidad Floyd would get demolished.
