What would you think if

[boxer2k5]

mayweather beats hatton this year
mosley and cotto next year and
retire for good?

where would you place him?
would people be finally satisfied (which i doubt)?
or will they start saying oh he gotta
fight willaims berto and cintron because
mosley was washed up, cotto wasnt ready, and
hatton was overrated?

[Amir K Shareef]

has to be one the best he beat everyone in his time so.....

[ßringer]

That's what I really want to see from Floyd, more results. Those are the only 3 guys he could really draw with right now and they're the best 3 fighters left aside from Mayweather himself. If Floyd beat all those guys he'd have to be a top all tim egreat for sure for having beaten every solid competitor of his era. And I know he can do it, that's why I want to see it so badly.

[Mozza]

If Floyd beats Hatton, Cotto and Mosley or even just fights them then I think his retirement would be much more justifiable.

[niceguy45]

it really the depends on the way he wins, if is like the win over oscar, def. not satisfied, in my eyes least would be draw never mind a decision over oscar, he has to win with a dominant performance=translation a boring ass fight,

[Rudyo]

He would be the best fighter of his generation from the 90's on.

You would have to put him in the top 20 at the very least.

**** that. Top 10, maybe top 5 or 6.

Come on:

Shane Mosley
Oscar De La Hoya
Ricky Hatton
Miguel Cotto
Zab Judah
Jose Luis Castillo (twice)
Diego Corrales
Genero Hernandez
Jesus Chavez
Arturo Gatti
Carlos Baldomir

Add to that he'd be 41-0, undefeated, a 5 division world champion (the youngest person to ever do so), and 4 division lineal world champion (would be the first person to ever do so), and he'd STILL only be 31 years old.

Easily top 10, if not higher.

[jamesbrown]

really depends on how he wins...
he needs to spank 1 or 2 of them then top 5-10 ish atg

You're right. For some reason I don't think history will be kind to Floyd though even if he wins those fights.
