His next four fight is Sergio Martinez,Pacquiao,GGG, and his last fight be a pacquiao rematch and he wins all four of these fights how high would you put him on the ATG list.
Of course Floyd would never do this but it's great to dream.
He would be top 12 lock,, mostly top 10,, would still be hard pressed to be top 5, maybe i slide him into the fifth spot at the high end....

Pacquiao at this stage is not a great win. Sergio is not a great win.
I wanted to say this, but people would just call me a hypocrite because I want to see the fight so bad.
But in all honesty, beating Pac at this point isn't the same thing, AT ALL.
If he won all four it would solidify his top 3 all time status.
Problem is I don't think he would go through all four of those fights without taking a loss, probably more than one.
A BIG 'if' there my man, but it would be incredible for him to do that, something every fan of the sport would have to recognise as something great...Only a Floyd hater could find an issue in my opinion.
Not sure exactly where on ATG lists it would put him but he would be considerably higher than wherever he is now.
But, like you said "if", and its never gonna play out like that unfortunately. An interesting thought though, despite how unlikely it is.
That's the most ridiculous hypothetical ever.
Hypothetically speaking, I can ask, "what if Khan beat Floyd, then went up to JMW, beat Canlelo, Lara, and Trout, then was competitive with GGG.
It would never happen, so asking that is ridiculous.
