Does Floyd resume hold up against the greats?

JMM has a better resume and was higher rated p4p fighter than any of those fighters. Corrales, Castillo shouldn't even be mentioned with the rest. jmm was moving up 2 divisions thats trash. corrale and castillo arent as good but they were at least in the same division and we also know floyd was cheating wtih his tue's in his "comeback" so you gotta put an asterik on all those fights astros style

well lets see he has prime baldomir. you think duran or hearns would hang with baldy?

The names are great, but most were fought at the right time and/or weight, green catchweight Canelo, old Oscar, small JMM, or 140 champ Hatton at 147. Then there are the fights he lost, Castillo or Maidana. Don't forget the fighters he ducked, Margarito or Williams. 50-0 is nice, but he rarely took real chances, he fought washed up Berto, instead of other top fighters. You could pick apart most of his fights, resume at 147 is okay, not great.

Floyd's resume stacks up just fine against anyone's if you take account of the changes in the sport over time and take your nostalgia specs off. So does Manny's for that matter. I usually regard ATG discussions as something to be left to the historians of the future, but I have zero doubts both will be remembered as long as we still got boxing. This is pretty much how it is, fans tend to run with the hype and romance of the past, they dont fully understand boxing in all its facets so they feed of hype and bragging rights, media pumping one and ragging on another, as time passes people enshrine the past greats like they were not humans but Gods, they not just made out to be. Not Gods they were humans that were great at what they did just as the best of today are also humans great at what they do. Go and show a classic technical bout to a crowd that have never seen a boxing match, and then show them a 4 round war between two knuckleheads swinging for the fences, and then show them a C grade guy having his first fight and he destroys the opponent and puts him to sleep. Then ask them all who is the best fighter ,,,, this is exactly what the entire fan mindset is made up off, its not based on who is the best for real, its based on fan hype.

Jmm win is not better then his wins against Cotto Corrales Castillo Hatton it was literally a tune up JMM has a better resume and was higher rated p4p fighter than any of those fighters. Corrales, Castillo shouldn't even be mentioned with the rest.

If you compare Floyds top 5 best on his resume 1.Pacman 2.Oscar 3.Canelo 4.Mosley 5.JMM How does it compare to other all time greats top 5? Especially when he beat them and the circumstances could put some asterisks on his resume. You forgot cotto at 6. It looks like any other resume with 6 HOF’ers at the top. Why would you put an asterisk by any of the wins?

It's funny watching Floyd haters spit nonsense. The topic was to compare Floyd's top wins against the top wins of other ATG. Will any of you do that instead of using your cookie cutter I hate floyd responses that barely have anything to do the topic?

Floyd -Wilfred Benitez at would be the most boring 147 fights ever. I don`t even wanna imagine that. two defence wizards , trying to punch each other at least once in round.

They fought also better guys. Cmon, Mayweather never fought nobody like Leonard, Hearns, Hagler..His best win is what..old smaller Pacquiao? And SRL gave rematches.

Fighting more cans and losing is bigger? Sure......... They fought also better guys. Cmon, Mayweather never fought nobody like Leonard, Hearns, Hagler..His best win is what..old Pacquiao?

Nel o had beat no one when Floyd beat nel o with a cw, weakest version. So moral of story is the more nel o wins the better it looks on nelos resume, not floyds. No matter what nel o does here on in, Floyd always beat the weakest, greenest nelo. Nothing nel o does here on in will change that fact Canelos got schooled, is a diva and drug cheat.

Canelos best win is cotto Nel o had beat no one when Floyd beat nel o with a cw, weakest version. So moral of story is the more nel o wins the better it looks on nelos resume, not floyds. No matter what nel o does here on in, Floyd always beat the weakest, greenest nelo. Nothing nel o does here on in will change that fact

The more canelo wins the better it looks on floyd's resume Yes nel o win makes Floyd look fantastic, superman level. But it's all smoke and mirrors. Nobody says Cotto win over Sergio makes Pac look fantastic. Nobody says what Hopkins did after losing to Calzaghe at 45 makes Calzaghe look better. Floyd fans are literally the only fanboys in the universe who do it. So all of Floyd's wins who did nothing after losing to floyd are zero rated wins for floyd then? Guerrero, ssm, maidana, Ortiz, basically floyd s entire resume nearly.

It is not only about resumes. Duran had 135 pro fights. RSR had 200 fights. Greb had 298 fights. Those guys were people`s fighters. They fought a lot, took many losses, but they didn`t care. And that is bigger than mayweather`s fake unbeaten record, comingbacks, beating MMA fighters in boxing matches, A - side techniques...
