Is it possible for Pacquiao to catch Floyd all-time?

[THE MACHINE]

How close are they all-time to you and does a dominant win over Thurman, coming off wins over Broner and Matthyse change his standing?

Would a win over Spence and/or Crawford do it?

 

[staticshock]

Lol no


He’s not far behind him, but there’s no passing him.

 

[Take It In Blood]

he won't beat Crawford but if he does then i might have to give it to him

as it stands right now tho, I'd rather watch a Pacman fight over a Floyd fight

he's a more entertaining fighter

however Floyd is without a doubt probably the greatest defensive minded fighter of all time.

if they ever create another Fight Night video game and his defense stats ain't 99 they're tripping.

Cats trying to rewrite narratives now that Floyd is 40 plus/not competitive anymore

I hear you, but Manny is still active. Does Floyds position become untouchable because he retired?

 

[CanesMiamiLakers]

How can he catch Floyd when he’s been knocked out multiple times and has lost to Floyd?

 

[patscorpio]

The only real separation between pac and floyd is that floyd beat him...its def not in their resumes

Marquez slept him in their last fight so No.

He lost to Jeff Horn so no.

To an extent/it depends in regards to who the person is. One of these younger cats like Spence could do it with the right fights

But Manny nah, its debatable he lost to Marquez multiple times/got KO'd once. And Floyd whipped his ass and Manny's too. Breh lost to Tim Bradley and Horn too

The biggest draw in boxing right now (Canelo) was whipped by Floyd too an old Floyd at that. Manny has never moved up to fight anyone that dangerous either

 

[MJ Truth]

No, there's no real opportunity to do it. He DEFINITELY isn't gonna do it if Floyd never fights again. The only way for him to get into the better than Floyd conversation is if he's able to beat Thurman, and then maybe beat Crawford, and then for Floyd to actually rematch him and Manny to win that fight. Even then he's not really ahead of Floyd based on resume or skill necessarily, but people would be able to argue it.

Spence greater than TC......

And TC too slow footed for Manny; gets hit too much also

Absolutely true

Breh lost to Tim Bradley and Horn too

We saw those fights breh. He clearly won those fights.

Absolutely. What happens if Manny takes out Thurman and one of Spence/Crawford?

Manny has never moved up to fight anyone that dangerous either

Margarito isn't Canelo ...but there was a time he was a monster to fight. Pac fought him at a 150 c/w similar to Floyd fighting Canelo at 152. Pac weighed 148 on fight night and Margarito was 165.
Let me be clear here, I believe Floyd is rightfully ahead of Pac all-time but I would put Pac ahead of Floyd if he beats Thurman and Spence/Crawford. His resume would be too much for Floyd to overcome imo. Floyd would have Pac, Canelo and Corrales over Pac.
But Pac would have 8 division championships
Bradley: avenged the loss
Marquez: won multiple fights despite the KO
Moralez: avenged the loss
Barrera: beat him twice
Margarito, Broner, Matthyse, Thurman, Spence/Crawford: And the bolded would be W's well past his prime. They also have common opponents DLH, Hatton, Mosley, Cotto, JMM which Pac beat them all. He cant keep beating these guys an not moving up, right?

hes already passed that woman beating c00n

there's nobody that ever actively avoided canelo in his weight classes...thats for sure...margarito was a different story
