    Is Valuev better than Ali?... Valuev never lost a fight. lol

    Exactly, if valuev fought prime Foreman, Fraizier etc, he would have been in a body bag.

    So WHO you fight has a bearing on your achievements, the more top fighters you face, the more likely you are to lose.
    Would you consider Ali a great if he had lost every significant fight in his career?

      You're joking, right?
      Nope, not at all

      Just re-read what you wrote and its a logical point,

      The more top-fighters you fight, the more chance you have of losing.

      Losing to top fighters does not mean Mosley doesn't have a better resume than Floyd, all it means is he fought the better fighters and lost to some of them.

        Most likely not, although this has no relvance to Mosley since Mosley has not lost every significant fight in his carrer.

            Since when does losing to good fighters make you more accomplished? With that logic, Reggie Strickland would be more accomplished. Mayweather has plenty more good wins, and Mosley has the best win.

              Using your logic, ChopChop is a more accomplished fighter than Forrest.

              Corley has these names on his resume:

              Floyd Mayweather
              Miguel Cotto
              Zab Judah
              Junior Witter

              (never mind he lost all of those fights, because losing doesn't matter, right?)

              Compared to Forrest who has...

              Mosely on his resume... And that's about it, oh and I guess Vince Phillips.

                All of them, except 1.

                Won the first Oscar fight.
                Lost the second Oscar fight.
                Lost the first Winky fight.
                Lost the second Winky fight.
                Lost the first Forrest fight.
                Lost the second Forrest fight.

                1-5, wow what an astounding record.

                  No it doesn't

                  FOR THE LAST TIME

                  all its means is he has a better resume, it doesnt mean he is the more accomplished fighter.

                  PBF is the more accomplished fighter, Mosley has the better resume.

                  It aint that difficult.

                    Please explain how Mosely has the better resumé when:

                    a) Floyd has fought more world champions than Shane has.
                    b) Floyd has fought the better overall opposition
                    c) Shane has lost to 4 legitimate times in his career (should really be 5)
                    d) Floyd is undefeated
                    e) Floyd has been the lineal champ in more weight divisions

                    And you're trying to justify he has a better resume because he lost (and not only lost, but beaten pretty badly) to Winky and Forrest?

                    I rest my case.

                      What case? lol

                      Resume = Who you have fought.

                      Nothing else, the other stuff you mention are ACHIVEMENTS, yes PBF has achieved more than Mosley, yes he is more accomplished than Mosley.

                      But Mosley has the better RESUME, why?

                      Because he has fought better fighters than PBF.

                      lol.
