Will Mayweather be #1 POUND FOR POUND if he beat Ortiz later?

he already is..no 1 ever beat him to take his crown And who did Floyd beat to take the crown from? I don't remember him beating Roy Jones... If you lose or if you don't fight,... you lose the right to be #1. You got to be active to be #1.

I'm one of the few here that defend Mayweather without going overboard. But objectively speaking, even if he HASN'T lost, I don't see how you can make him pound-for-pound #1 after this fight. He can't keep dropping off the charts after a year of inactivity/retirement, beat a big name opponent and jump to #1. The difference between Ortiz and Mosley is that WHEN Mayweather fought Mosley, Mosley was #3 or #4 pound-for-pound. Ortiz is not even in the top ten. He might get up there in 5 or 4 pound-for-pound because of how incredibly dominating he looks, but aside from that...I don't think you can establish him as #1. Maybe #3 at best after/if he wins... Let's try to keep this in perspective guys...

Probably be #2 or #3 if he beats Ortiz by UD. A early KO before 9 rd which is unlikely might propel him to #1. But most likely #2. Really depends on the matter he beats Ortiz.

Ortiz may not win on the scorecards, but if he's even competitive, it'll be a great fight for everyone.

that puto aint winning

He might be moved up to 3rd behind Martinez.

you gotta beat the best to be the best..no 1 has ever beat Floyd

Floyd already is. good boy now your starting to get it

i consider him #1 p4p

It depends on the person. P4P is only an opinion.

He already is.

Floyd already is.

he already is..no 1 ever beat him to take his crown

Absolutely not .

ring magazine 1. Manny Pacquiao 2. Sergio Martinez 3. Nonito Donaire 4. Juan Manuel Marquez 5. Wladimir Klitschko 6. Timothy Bradley 7. Pongsaklek Wonjongkam 8. Giovani Segura 9. Andre Ward 10. Bernard Hopkins Where is he???? Where is Floyd?

Ok well it's obvious he's the best, so if you don't think he is P4P #1 now, you will later.

He has to be more active to be #1. He would have to be winning events like this at least twice a year.

He already is.

Floyd already is.
