I disagree... comparing victories is pretty close to useless in head to head speculation.

I do think the people that are saying that Pacquiao has moved in front of Mayweather in resume/legacy status are fine saying that... that is where comparing head to head victories makes sense.

The flaw in comparing victories is that styles make fights at the end of the day. If Mayweather was a pac-clone, there is no way you would not pick Manny to beat his clone if he had done better against the same opposition. It is a sound way of thinking. However, styles are obviously more important.

Mr boat buyer's stans had to know cats would jump all over the comparison thing. Y'all might be hearin it for a while Dios, although I do agree wit your thread.

Most of these floyd fans are not really his fans, what they are fans of is of an undefeated record and bad boy attitude. i dont mind the attitude or the perfect record of course but the real reason to be a fan is the 05-07 versions of Floyd in his prime tearing tru Gatti, Baldo, Corrales, Castillo, Hatton... going a while back Hernandez was also a great win, only Floyd and Oscar beat him in his entire career.

Tell em man.

I wasn't THAT crazy with my ranking. I notice the BS writers also put Floyd at #4 the next day.

I noticed that too. I guess it was at no. 3 wasn't it? Personally I think it's too high, but that's really just a matter of opinion.

Personally I think it's too high

Surprise, surprise.

Good thread and good point, but we all know people would be talking and comparing, it will die down after a week or 2.

Small sample size.

LOL... given the rate at which these guys take on matches,
a boxer'd have to be dead/retired before you could confidently
eliminate data scatter.
