But to be fair and balanced to Floyd, he did fight an absolutely prime Jose Luis Castillo (who was a motherfucking beast) at 135. Floyd didn't even want to fight his first fight at 135 with Castillo but Arum forced him to. Manny first fought paper champion David Diaz at 135. Floyd fought EVERYBODY at 130-135 which is not the same you can say for Manny. Floyd absolutely dominated weight classes at 130-135. You can't say that for Manny.

putting him on tough fights which is rightfully deserving
btw, Pac only had 1 fight at 135 so comparing Floyd against Pac at that division is ridiculous

Pac fighting some of the fights Floyd ducked but at catch weights.
Pac fighting more boxers out of their prime while Floyd fought some good boxers in their prime.
Pac only really fighting one style while Floyd has fought a mix of styles.
That's just how I see it.

Pac dont need Floyd at this point of his career.. Everything he has accomplished is WITHOUT FLOYD..
Floyd will go down as the guy ducked Pac at the end of the day.. Sad but true...
