    Well Mayweather fought the far superior opponents, but talent wise, Mosley with was right there with him.

          You are right, Mosley beat everyone at the time, He beat the best out there unlike the cherry picking Mayweather who has ducked at least 5 top welterweights to date.

            Mosley had longevity and good names there.

            Mayweather had the best guy between them probbaly in Castillo but not much better otherwise and didn't saty much there.

            I give it to Mosley.

                CASTILLO beat MAYWEATHER.

                MOSLEY had like 33 wins 31 KO s in LIGHTWEIGHT division.

                MOSLEY is way way better fighter,and was way way way better lightweight

                  Had Mayweather fought a lightweight Mosley the night he fought Castillo, it would have gotten ugly.

                    Mosley fought Forrest at 147, and he is better than anyone Mayweather has fought.

                    Mayweathers fights at lightweight are far from impressive either, he fought most of his early fights at super feather. His 23rd proffesional fight was at lightweight against someone with a record of 22-16-4, impressed much?? His next lightweight fight was 4/5 fights later when he controversially beat Castillo.

                    I agree that Mosleys level of opposition at lightweight wasnt great, but over the last 10years Mayweather isnt even close to the level of fighters Mosley has taken on.

                      what....in the span of over 6+ years between Oscar 2 that he was proved to take steroids and Margarito, he's fought bums like vargas 2x, mayora, estrada, cruz...wtf are you talking about? Just because he foughf forrest means nothnig because he was completely outclassed 2x and wink outclassed him 2x. Stop sticking up for this drug cheat. Facts are facts. What would boxingscene look like if Mayweater would Ricardo Mayorga ahahahhaah.
