Pac's biggest wins: PRIME Morales 2x, PRMIE Barrera 2x, PRIME JMM 2x, PRIME Hatton.

Mayweather's biggest wins: Beyond Prime ODH, JLC (he was gifted the first fight), very troubled Diego, Hatton (please, Hatton already proved he didn't belong at 147lbs when he was doing the chicken dance against Collazo).

Seriously...the ones who voted for Mayweather are either related to him directly or blind/devoted Mayweather fans.
I think Pac has the better legacy atm (though it is very close), but this post is absurd.

Hatton was not prime, nor was Barrera in the second fight, Morales was not prime in the third fight and a reasonable claim could be made that he was removed from his prime prior to the second fight as well.

Regardless of the way you try to deride him, Mayweathers victories over Castillo (even if you feel PBF lost the first fight, which was close, he absolutely dominated him in the rematch), Hatton, Corrales, and ODH are all impressive.
