Pac sucks
This is silly the hardest last five fights
Firstly I'd say froch
Then sergio martinez
Followed by Pac and Floyd.
People who discredit Floyds resume are just Haters.
Floyd has wins over Shane, Hatton, JMM, ODH, and pac has fought similar opponents no point letting your hatred for the guy detract from the facts.
Froch, Martinez & Pac.
Froch especially has impressed me. Simply because I am English.

It's funny how the man crush some have on Pacman, blinds people from seeing the truth. Not only was clottey not "elite", the guy lost to a shell of a fighter in Cotto, and just before losing to cotto, he had a close fight with............ZAB JUDAH!!!!......come on man...then margarito? please.
Why didn't the "P4P king" take the fight with Shane Mosley when Mosley wanted to fight Pacman for his lightweight title? Shane even said he would fight Pac at 145/144/142/140.....instead, Pacman chose Cotto at 145...OOOOHhhhhh, that's right, because FREDDIE ROACH SAID COTTO IS SHOT, AND SHANE IS TOO BIG!!....
lol, I swear to god.
Martinez, Paul Williams, JMM, Dzuzuzuz, ALL have fought whoever gets put in front of them, none at catchweights, and not questionable fighters either.
It's pronounced 'Gin-Zuric'

My point wasn't to discredit Pac, although it might look like it form that post, for I have to admit he is great, it was used as an example that his resume can be picked apart as easily as Floyd's. As the people at this forum tend to do, especially Pacquiao fans.
Froch, by a considerable margin imo, because he's also travelled for 3 of them to face the 'House' fighter.

I don't agree with JMM because he was utterly destroyed by Floyd and then has fought Kastidis, who is admirable and tough (i'm a fan) but not that great, and Diaz, who is simply not that good. Floyd fighting Hatton at 147 when Hatton's prime weight was 140 is questionable. It's a good win, but it's not great. It's like Hopkin's win over Pavlik, it's a good win, but it's not great because Pavlik had to move up in weight to fight him. And Floyd's win over Hatton was completely expected whereas many people had Bernard going into that fight as the underdog. Same goes for his win over JMM. It's not like Floyd was fighting at 140 for years and then recently moved up to 147. He was a welterweight fighting a junior welterweight and a welterweight fighting a lightweight. The rest of his wins are solid.

Sorry but I don't play the fanboy/Hater game so you are confusing me with someone else......What did I post that was not true?....Baldo was the favorite going in that fight?....What was the scoring of the DLH fight?....Did he not come in over weight for JMM?...Has he not fought a minimal amount of times in 4 yrs?...Was Mosley not the most legit threat in those last 5 fights?...Considering he was the WW champ after his destruction of Margarito?....What {P4P fighter has Oscar beaten in thier primes?....Did DLH not stop using his jab in rd 10 - 12? did he not make the same mistake in the Trinidad fight?...Did Hatton not struggle at WW against fighters half the talent then Floyd?....Was he not given a gift over Collazzo?....C'Mon man get rid of the stupid kid shit and stick with facts.....
As for Froch yes many including myself expected him to lose many of the fights he won but somehow he came out on top....I liken him to Calzaghe in that aspect.....Everytime you think he will lose he finds a way to prove you wrong.....

How is Floyde anymore of a true welterweight then Pac I mean the man highest weight fight night has been like 150 pac is 148. Neither are true welterweights and there last outings are the against almost the same exact people. Anyhow i guess if i had to go with top guys its Froch or maybe Martinaz.
I have not seen a recent fight night weight of PBF in HBO but just looking at Floyd standing next to Shane Mosely who usually comes in 160 lbs at fight night looks about the same size. Floyd should at least be close to 160 himself or at least 156 lbs IMO.
PAC is about the same size as Juan Manuel Marquez in fact Marquez is an inch taller, and Marquez looks alot smaller than PBF when they fought.

Floyd? What nonsense! Who on this planet ever regarded Baldomir as a legitimate threat? Who thought the Hatton fight SHOULD be at WW? Who can justify fighting a LW at a WW CW and then not even bother making weight? Mosley was the most legit opponent, but even he was pushing 40 and coming in off of an 18 month layoff. That is huge for an older fighter. He has taken good opponents and found ways to chip at them in terms of weight or age. He never fought them on even terms. Baldomir was just mediocre.
I agree with those that have suggested Froch, now that is who I regard as a true fighter. He is willing to take on anyone. Floyd could learn a lot from someone like Carl Froch.
