    No way lol. Joe Calzaghe. Check boxrec sometime. And please see who the better resume ones beat. This isn't even a matter of oppinion, add their status, losses and wins together and you need less a thread.

      Who has ducked the best fighters in his weight division, and fought easier opponents? Joe fought the best at 168, except for anyone like Ottke who ducked him.

      Has to be Floyd.

        Agreed didn't fight Morales at 130 Mosley at 135 Kosta Tszyu at 140 Cotto or Marg or Mosley at 147 and fought DLH at 154 not the best opponent at that weight.

          This polls clearly being, and will be mis interpreted as who has the worst resume / whom has fought the easiest fighters.

          That's not the poll man, forget the opponents, whom has the most hand picked resume is the question.

          Difficult one to know for sure because it's based on somehow knowing an opponents been hand picked for a fighter, which is not always possible to proove. People will vote Calzaghe with the mis interpretation above, truth is he's not as bad as some others including Mayweather.

              That's what I'm thinking. Oscar has had his choice of any opponent he wanted his entire career. Now if it were easiest picks I'd probably make another choice.

                Agreed.

                Well the way I see it is, and why I voted for Cotto.

                In a publicized rematch with a foe from the Amateurs who clearly hit a ceiling and wasn't as good as his counterpart, he gained recognition (against Pinto). He fought a Judah that had already been exposed prior, and was by no means the same fighter he once was at 140. He fought a past his prime Mosley who really doesn't belong over 140 pounds to begin with............let's not even talk about the showcase fights:

                Branco, Gomez, Urkal, Sosa, lol WTF? Those guys aren't even B class.

                  Yes, and now Floyd's cherry-picked his next two: past-prime Oscar De La Hoya, and the courageous but reach-challenged Rick Hatton. He already has wins over both, so what's the point?

                  He won't fight Mosley, because even though Shane's older, he's not far enough past his prime. He may fight him in a few years.

                      Good post. Agree with everything you said. Sad for the sport and sad for for his legacy.
