Floyd Mayweather Jr. is for sure better than Hopkins. Pacquiao, Vitali, Shane Mosley and Calzaghe are at least not worse.

I really dont see how PBF cant be considered the best of the 2000-2010 decade thus far. I mean all of his best wins started in early 2000s where as other guys like Jones best was before 2000 or Hopkins defenses go back before 2000.
PBF beat
Corrales, Castillo, Hernadez, Chavez, Corley, Sharmba, Gatti, Zab, Baldo, DLH, Hatton
Thats a pretty good list, sure there are a few he didnt face like Casamayor, Cotto ect but you can say that for every fighter.

The question is "Is he the best of the last decade", at 18 motherfuckers voted "NO! Not Close!".
That's staggering to me.
In the Past 10 years Hopkins has fought..........
Allen
Echols
Vanderpool
Echols
Holmes
Trinidad
Daniels
Hakkar
Joppy
Allen
De La Hoya
Eastman
Taylor
Taylor
Tarver
Wright
Calzaghe
Pavlik
Who else even comes close to that? Roy? In the last decade Roy's faced.....
Frazier
Johnson
Telesco
Hall
Harding
Harmon
Gonzalez
Kelly
Woods
Ruiz
Tarver
Tarver
Johnson
Tarver
Ajamu
Hanshaw
Trinidad
Calzaghe
Sheika
In the last decade Hopkins is 15-3, with landmark wins over Prime Tito, Oscar, Winky, Pavlik, and Tarver. And even his 3 losses were close, razor thin decisions that are hotly debated to this day.
In the last decade Roy is 15-4, with landmark wins over Tarver the first time (which should've been another loss), Ruiz, Woods, Hanshaw, and the bloated corpse of a guy who looks like Felix Trinidad.
Roy, you can make a case for, and I wouldn't fault you for. But who else could possibly be above Hopkins in the last 10 years?
Mayweather? He doesn't even come close. Pacquiao? Doubtful.
