    Rank These Men, Relative To One Another...

    Rank the five men picured atop this page next to the BoxingScene.com logo. You needn't specify their historical rating per se, just how they rate amongst each other.

    Floyd Mayweather
    Miguel Cotto
    Manny Pacquiao
    Oscar De La Hoya
    Joe Calzaghe

    Here's how I see them...

    1. Pacquiao
    2. Mayweather
    3. De La Hoya
    4. Calzaghe
    5. Cotto

    Mayweather & De La Hoya were pretty close, as were Calzaghe & Cotto. Pacquiao, predominantly on the strength of career achievement, has to be my number-one.

      @SCTrojansbaby, It's the people in the Boxing Scene shortcuts at the top.
      I would really like to see some past greats there when you enter l'histoire section.

          I went with Mayweather ahead of him, but I do agree with your sentiment regarding De La Hoya. Absolutely. The one that kills me is, "Oscar lost all his big fights..." Ugh.
