Mosley/Mayweather Legacy

NSB: He was old, past prime, he had diarrhea, ect....

Sgt Rock i agree Mosley has fought and lost to the bigger stronger and more awkward names look, duran lost 16 times in his career but he thoght Hagler and Hearns in my book that is a real ATG resume Floyd fights Zab and Marquez (light welter and lightweight) why not Pac and Williams they would define his greatness.

Floyd fought most of career at Top Rank. They're great matchmakers. Mosley is my boy just like Floyd. But I will never in my life understand why he fought Winky or Santa Cruz over Zab or Margo. Wish he got a belt at 140 against Tszyu, Mitchell, or Vince phillips instead of fighting John Brown, because he was ducked hard by Stevie Johnston

Mayweather has a better overall record of opposition fought, but Mosley definitely has the better quality of opposition fought. Both are similar in the regard that they both blazed a trail of dominance from Lightweight all the way up to Welterweight, and continued to dominate opponets there. But what seperated the two IMO is the fact that once they both got to Welterweight ; Mosley took on the tougher challenges. I'm not saying Mosley's record of opposition at 147 is stellar, because I don't believe it is ; but it's certainly far better than Mayweather's. Prime De La Hoya, Rivera, Collazo, Cotto, and Margarito > Baldomir, Judah, Mitchell, Hatton, Marquez. Floyd's overall record looks better (what with all the "big" names, and the undefeated streak), but Mosley's record of competition is tougher. Mayweather will be ranked above Mosley in the history books. good post i agree 100% mosley fought the tougher comp but mayweather goes down in history as the better fighter

Mayweather has the better overall resume of wins. Mosley has the best single win among the two (1st DLH fight). Mosley has the better resume of opposition fought.

You dont get credit for fighting people. You get credit for beating them. Mosley resume < Floyds Resume Margo big with mexicans Cotto huge following, big name Any boxing fans knows Vargas Hernandez baldimor chavez mitchell nobody's low risk no names to be fair this was when floyd didn't fight for huge money and belts instead

You dont get credit for fighting people. You get credit for beating them. Mosley resume < Floyds Resume

mosleys only good wins are oscar and margo..vargas was shot to shit when he fought mosley..mayorga was way past prime..collazo was a decent win..but collazo never beat anyone worth mentioning floyds resume>>>>>mosleys resume castillo corrales hatton judah hernendez jesus chavez plus mosley..lol not even close add in the fact that mosley admittly cheated in the 2nd oscar fight Don't think mayorga ever had a prime good point though but the bigger names are definetley on mosleys list forgot about castillo
