Floyd is P4P #2 ever after SRR?

[SBleeder]

He fights twice a year. Take the ATG's I named earlier and they fought better fighters and more often. Do you not factor that in?

He fights once a year.

[greynotsoold]

I would argue a case for Conn. He has a lot of excellent wins on his resume.

That's no joke..Just in a 2 year period starting with the Zivic fight he fought more top fighters than Mayweather ever could. Take a look at teddy Yarosz and some of the guys he beat, like Archie Moore. Or Fred Apostoli, Solly Kreiger.

Honestly? i would make him fringe top 50. Off the top of my head:

SRR,
SRL,
Hearns,
Hagler,
Duran,
Whitaker,
Langford,
Ali,
Dempsey,
Pryor,
Lamotta,
Marciano,
Frazier,
Conn,
Chavez,
Roy jones jr,
Armstrong,
Louis,
Prime Tyson,
Greb,
Pep,
Moore,
Charles,
I can go on..........

FOH. He's deep...deep into the top 50.

Frazier and LaMotta aren't even in the ballpark btw.

[Cardinal Buck]

Mayweather would school duran.

He would beat Duran, and more easily at 147.

[AntonTheMeh]

nah. he wouldn't.

[FrankieClutch]

Floyd's resume doesn't stack up against other great fighters (i.e. Duran, SRR, SRL, etc.).

Amazingly talented fighter, but doesn't have the resume to be top 10 IMO.

[FrankieClutch]

Purely based on skills, I can probably put him in the top 5 though

[Anthony342]

skillwise, the best ever, resume wise, he'll never get there. he'd have to do some superhuman feat like move up and beat the likes of martinez and ward and that will never happen.

Well he might fight Martinez now, with the knee and hand injuries he has now and considering he didn't look too good in his last fight, but still probably won't. Martinez from a little while back even that knocked out Williams I don't think he would fight. Ward he would only fight if he were past prime.

I factor in that fact that Floyd took on Cotto and Mosley at least 2 years after they were still considered major threats, never fought Margarito and ducked his biggest money fight and toughest possible challenge, Pacquiao. Manny finally agrees to testing and then all of a sudden there's a money dispute. That's not what I call taking on all comers. Maybe earlier on in his career he did, but then he started cherry picking to protect his "0".
