      Floyd. His talents heavily outweigh his resume. Not too late. Mosley brings his resume value up quite a bit if he beats him. If Floyd beats Pac, I will never criticize Floyd's resume again.

      Jones Jr. One of my all-time favorites. It wasn't totally his fault. Many fighters avoided him, and there weren't too many great fighters around his weight class. People claim he avoided a few guys, but I can't even remember their names. Roy could have beat those guys, but people would **** on his resume anyways because those guys were good, but not well known. It's equivalent to Floyd beating Jesus Chavez. Impressive win against a tough opponent, but whose gonna remember Chavez 7-10 years from now?

        Yes, it was Joppy.

        In his defense Tito was already leaving 147 at the time Shane was moving up, but he had plenty of time to make the Quartey fight imo.
        Trinidad and Quartey had signed for a fight in 1998, but it got cancelled when Quartey was sued by his promotional company for breach of contract.

        Tito has a really good resume in terms of fighters fought. In terms of wins (especially definitive ones since the DLH win is controversial), it's not nearly as great. I thought the opposition for much of his WW reign was relatively weak, but his opposition was very impressive from 1999-2001.

          I thought I remembered them signing at one point but just wasn't sure.

          His op at 147 certainly wasn't great, but he took on almost everybody. I agree the DLH controversy lessens it though. A Forrest fight would have been interesting, but he didn't start making real waves till about '96 or '97 and there was no money to be made with him.

              Marciano's i'd describe as fairly poor.. Holmes marginally better at slightly poor, and Lewis a bit better still at mediocre.. I still think that Foster and Pryor are the worst and have very poor resumes..
