    So basically what's missing for you is also big name value?
    Basically, I consider him an ATG SFW, I think he is easily top 3 all time. I have him at #2 all time at 130 right behind Arguello but you can make a case for Floyd being #1... At 135 you can't rank him he only had 5 fights there, at 140, was not impressive with his 3 fights there, at 147 eh I am not impressed, his 1 fight at 154 was business. If you really look at his 14 fights above 130 is not that great... He is amazingly skilled and talented but above 130 IMO he has not put in the work that he could/should of... At 130 he was phenomenal, but above that I just don't see it in his resume... But, if he beats Mosley then that is making a statement, beating Mosley and Pac? Well that will just shut me up... And, he will deserve full credit... Nobody would be able to say anything negative about Floyd if he pulls it off...

      100% dude... at SFW he was an beast... Arguello at SFW as well... many only know him from his fights with Pryor but that was at 140... at SFW Arguello was also one bad mutha (R.I.P. by the way)

      That's also always something about some here that they want to compare him to guys like Leonard who is a welter... you have to compare him to his real weight class to appreciate what he is...

      Yeah, if you put up his work at 130... his other weight classes can't compare... I think at 135 he gets a pass for me still because Castillo had beaten Johnston and was the best at 135 IMO... but I agree that his body work at 135 is hard to consider... if you consider that 135 is a division forever...

      You see dude... that's what I like... even though you are a Pacquiao fan you still foremost a boxing fan *Looooooooooooooool*... green k coming your way

            I say easily in the top 20 to 30. And if he beats Mosley and Pac he is a def in the top 10. After that Fans would demand he fight PWILL n Pavlik n Dawson n the winner of the Super 6 and then Haye and the Klithckos all in the same night to be #1.

              Skills wise top 5 ever. The entire package I put him somewhere in the 30-40 range. He still has room to improve, ask this again next year after Pac and Mosley and he is getting even further up.

This poll will be based on top 100. So where do you rank Floyd? This is all opinion based and just wanted to see what the general consensus is on NSB. Poll coming.
                    He could end up in the TOP TEN depending on what he does from now on...if he beats SSM, PAC, P Will...etc. Saul Alvarez LOL....
