what does Mayweather need to do do get the #1 atg spot?

[-Swizzy-]

Beat Pavlik and Abraham at 160, Williams at 147 or 154, Mosley, Cotto, Kirkland, and then by that time Khan and Ortiz will be prime and beat them too.

yeah, this would do it but obviously not happening.

[fdotorres]

JMM
Pacquiao
Cotto
Mosley
Margarito

wins over those guys would be a start. I don't know what much else he could do to be GOAT. there aren't enough great fighters in the weight classes above or below him to beat.

huh???????

huh???????

JMM p4p #2 and Margarito is still a top 4 WW. why is that so confusing to you? JMM isn't as much a mismatch as you think. its a fair fight.

Go back in time.

In two senses,

1) go back in time to have 100+ fights and fight everyone relevant 3-5 times

2) go back to 2003-2005 and fight relevant competition during his physical prime, instead of fighters who barely had business being in the ring with him like he did (basically anyone between Castillo and Judah).

Mind, I am not saying he ducked anyone, but his physical peak went wasted.

Margarito is not a top 4 welterweight. A year layoff, taking the beating of a lifetime, and suspicion of cheating his entire career moves him to the bottom half of the top 10. By the time he returns, Berto will even be better than him.

after he kos jmm and packyau. then beats cotto and mosley. what would you all think is best for him to reach that #1 spot? should he fight 100 bums or just wait until he dies.

You have brought a new level of stupidity to NSB, congratulations.

JMM
Pacman
Mosley
Cotto

Simple

even floyd admitted that it's a mismatch... why haven't you done so?

btw, margarito isn't even ranked right now. when he arrives, he won't be in the top 5. cheating + getting beat up + not having license + not having any belts = not at the top

[MANGLER]

Mr boat buyer could never be #1 ATG. Fightin SSM and Cotto would help, but he won't do it.

[sandyvahra]

Doesn't matter what he does from this point forward, he'll never get close to #1 ATG.
