Umm still incorrect statement... Just because mayweather is a better counter puncher and has a defensive style of boxing doesn't mean he is the better boxer... feints, movements, punch combination, ring generalship, chin, aggression and such are also other attributes of being a boxer... mayweather is not necessarily better "by a wide margin" than pac at those regards... they just box differently...

On the flip side, Pac is one of the best offensive boxers... that's why you think he is a better "fighter" (which also an incorrect statement)... in offensive boxing attributes I think Pac has mayweather edged out...

The correct statement is that Mayweather's style of boxing is way less riskier than Pac's style is... more importantly, it is easier to score points being a defensive boxer than being offensive especially at Mayweather's skill level... SO, to generalize that one is a better boxer than the other is just wrong...
