    In sports a W is a W plain and simple! If you win the super bowl by 3points or you win by 20 points you are still the Super Bowl Champs!!!! Its not how you done it but that you done it!!!! A Champ is a Champ no matter how you slice it.

    Yes. A champ is a champ. But in the court of public opinion, it isn't THAT you did it...it's HOW you did, especially in boxing.

    Yep. Just because Mayweather would have used aggressiveness against his opponent. Mayweather is all about self-preservation. JMM kept himself coiled and ready to strike.

    I agree with you man. Manny did it in exciting and devastating fashion. I take nothing away from him for that. At the same time where are we having this discussion? ESB.

    We should be looking at deeper factors because we know that the fight is just a culmination of all the hard work. Casually? Pac gets the nod. Looking at the deeper factors? Pac's wins don't hold weight.

    Now I am ONLY speaking about WW.

    So to grandmas and chicks who don't know anything about the sweet science Pac is the best.

    To men who like boxing and the art of the sport Mayweather is the man.

    I can take that.

    You didnt read the last part.

    I for example, I love watching FIBA World basketball games.

    It's precise, it's textbook, it's beautiful.

    Satisfying and it opens your mind.

    But a lot of times, I just wanna watch some crazy, run and gun, all offense NBA Golden State Warriors/Phoenix Suns basketball.

    Outscore, outrun, outshoot.

    Nothing wrong with that.

    There's always one person who has to ruin a nice, heated, but civil thread with name-calling and oversimplification. You should be proud of yourself.

    I put it in a combative way, but I agree with you.

    Pac is exciting. The casual fan can understand what Pac is doing. He is mauling guys. A fighter.

    Mayweather takes a higher boxing IQ to understand and love for boxing to like. To the average person, they don't see anything but running. They have never gotten into a ring and tried to "swim without getting wet".

    Still, at the end of the day, Mayweather will be higher on the ATG list.

    racism is the most stupid reason on the list. why have it listed when pacman is not white?

    my answer: mayweather is a champ in the ring, but an ******* outside of it. pacman is a champ in the ring, AND outside of it!

    simple!

    who really gives a **** about mayweathers undefeated record? they are BOTH great as of right now. but pacman makes it easier to be a fan because it's not an ******* outside of the ring! simple!

    It's because Mayweather is very arrogant and cocky, and pussies don't like when people talk ****. They want to live in a fairy tale world where everyone is nice to everyone.

    I listed "racism" because it is something Floyd himself has brought up...that is the one and only reason I put that up there.

    floyd brings that up because he is a bigot. there was a time when being a black american would hold you back in boxing; however, that's been decades.
