Higher than Hopkins and Manny?
Higher than BH possibly but not Pac.
I love all these avatars with Floyd nearly getting hit but not quite and making canelo miss. I challenge anyone to make a avatar of Canelo hitting Floyd, or making Floyd miss and punishing Floyd.
Here's my top 20 of all time:
1. Sugar Ray Robinson
2. Harry Greb
3. Ezzard Charles
4. Henry Armstrong
5. Sam Langford
6. Joe Gans
7. Muhammad Ali
8. Willie Pep
9. Benny Leonard
10. Archie Moore
11. Joe Louis
12. Roberto Duran
13. Carlos Monzon
14. Eder Jofre
15. Pernell Whitaker
16. Jimmy Wilde
17. Sugar Ray Leonard
18. Bob Fitzsimmons
19. Tony Canzoneri
20. Gene Tunney
Can't see any room for Mayweather there.
If I made a top 50, he'd probably be between 30 and 40.
We won't know until his career is over. He should have at least four more fights. We'll have to see how those go and give it about ten years before we have a real historical perspective.
The way he is going though, he'll rank pretty high on a lot of lists.
Yeah, get rid of the top 10, and even more laughably the top 5 option.
His resume is mediocre compared to other ATGs. His fans can shout about his skills until they're blue in the face, but at the end of the day it's all about resume and Floyd's just doesn't stack up.
Lets hope Floyd knows this. That way he will go out in a blaze of glory and take dangerous fights, and risks.
Didn't take on all comers regularly, and only fighting a decent opponent every once in a while. Canelo was a good opponent but not his equal like a Pac or Sergio. Even khan and Garcia have better resumes than Canelo.
But Canelo was the natural fight out there though, as he was unbeaten and bigger.

This guy has it right.
you can't make a top 20 list with out copying. Your top 10 fighters post 60's list didnt even include Duran and he's recognized as a top 3 ATG :lol1:
to Answer TS's questions he doesnt crack the top 25
Name 25 fighters greater than Mayweather. LOL You're such a troll, Maniac. :)
I respect your opinion.....but can you name me 20-25 guys who are more talented overall than Floyd. As a matter of fact name me 10. I'll wait
you're confusing talent with resume.
