    While Floyd destroyed Hatton and showed his wide range of impressive skills.

    Manny Pacquiao is fighting the guy at 140 and he was fighting at 130 not to long ago, I think that is why people would see it as a great achievement, IF he were to win.

      i'm pretty sure it has something to do with pac moving up from 106 lbs to beat mab 2x, morales 2x, and jmm 2x and capturing lineal titles in 4 different divisions (if he beats hatton).

          Those highlighted are the ones that count.

          That still is a pretty weak resume compared to what Hopkins, Floyd and Pacquiao have all achieved.

            This is my list as things stand:

            1) Mayweather
            2) Pacquiao
            3) Hopkins
            4) Winky Wright
            5) Morales
            6) Barerra
            7) Marquez
            8) Trinidad
            9) De La Hoya
            10) Mosley

            This is more or less how i'd have it.

              In your opinion. I don't see anything spectacular about Hopkin's or Floyd's resume compared to Calzaghe.

                yeh he waited untill Roy was 39 before he beat him? His wins over Mitchell and Eubank werent that great. Eubank was another old man he faced.

                His best wins are Lacy, Hopkins and Kessler. Even the Hopkins win is debatable.

                  You can switch PBF and Bhop around for me but I like the rest.

                    Because you proberly dont know who the following fighters are:

                    1) Winky Wright
                    2) Felix Trinidad
                    3) De La Hoya
                    4) Castillo
                    5) Corrales
                    6) Judah
                    7) Joppy
                    8) Tarver
                    9) Gatti
                    10) Pavlik


                    You obviously dont watch boxing other than when British fighters are fighting.

                      If Pac beats Hatton convincingly he would be the fighter of the decade. Howerver, until that happens its Floyd Jr.

                      BHop is up there, but he's 3 -3 in his last 6 fightss (over the last 4 years, 48 months)
                      W - Pavlik
                      W - Tarver
                      W - Wright

                      L - Taylor
                      L - Taylor
                      L - Joe Cal
