      The opposition you beat is what matters.
      I agree...I'd like to see Mayweather at 160-168...maybe they'll understand. I mean would Floyd have been able to beat a say Wilfred Benitez...Does Floyd have a name on his resume better then Carlos Palomino

      The disrespect Duran is gettin don't make sense to me either. Most Floyd fans brag about how Floyd is a 5 division champion...You atleast gotta respect the fact that Duran and Floyd are the same size and Duran kicked ass in higher weight divisions then Floyd

                Of course not.

                Hehe I am kind of glad to see you go out of your way to set some bull**** straight... I was jealous of your ability to be impassible while reading bull**** replies to sensible observations.

                      There's something a bit different about Brandish's top 16 ATGs, but I just can't quite put my finger on it. He then said he'd never seen or studied Pep, but somehow managed to squeeze him in at 23. He says stuff like "Kostya Tszyu isn't on Hatton's level," "Mayweather ruled 130 for 6 years," "Iran Barkley was a bum," and "Duran should've fought Roy Jones, Michael Nunn and Hopkins."

                      Duran isn't a top 10 ATG (arguable,) but Mayweather is #6? GTFOOH.

                      And no, these two are very good fighters, but not ATGs. I'll be surprised to see either make the HOF TBH.
