As I’ve stated before; Only history will decide and record whether not who was the better fighter and who had the better resume not us. A hundred years from now we’ll know
Mayweather's resume is massively overrated comapre to BUD

After a conversation on why Max Kellerman believes that Manny Pacquiao should be above Mayweather on a pound-for-pound ranking of the best boxers this century (in response to ESPN putting Floyd at No. 1 and Pacquiao at No. 2 in an article earlier this month), former NFL player LeSean McCoy said, "Nobody has changed the game like Floyd 'Money' Mayweather."
"In a bad way! In a bad way," Garcia retorted. He then added, "[Mayweather] mastered the art of knowing when to fight somebody and knowing when not to fight somebody. I mean, he's the best in that game. He's the best in making money, and making all the huge fights happen. But why? Because he was timing every single one of them.
"He never fought nobody really in their prime, prime [after junior lightweight]. So he changed the game in the worst way possible, you're right. Everybody is trying to protect their 0 [on their record]."
Ryan Garcia also agreed with Kellerman on this take, saying that he has always had Pacquiao above Floyd.Comment

The ONLY problem with your theory is that when it's all said and done, Crawford has only defeated ONE HoF fighter whereas Mayweather & Pacquiao have beaten at least half a dozen each so will go down higher in the history books. Also, Crawford beat both Spence & Canelo at the end of their career's after one had suffered a life-changing car crash (and hasn't fought since) whereas the other had been through multiple wars and lost a couple.
In fact, if boxing WASN'T corrupt, the version of Canelo that Crawford beat should have a couple of extra losses to his name against Golovkin!Comment

I think you forgot Marquez as one of his best wins, however mega asterisk with that one. Brought Marquez up to a new weight class where Marquez looked fat, and Floyd didn't care to make the weight himself. That was like bullying on a fighter, however it wasn't just any fighter, it was the one that gave Manny hell, so for casuals, it looked incredible.
Second you said was Hatton being a great win however it was not in Hatton's dominant weight class. He nearly got KO'd by COLLAZO at 147lbs, before Mayweather fought him there. After his loss, he moved back down to 140lbs.
Otherwise, commence the arguements, lol.Comment

Floyd has a stronger resume but he never fought an elite level fighter at their best. Crawford also beat a better version of Canelo than Floyd did. In a head to head fight my money would be on Crawford. Of course Floyd would never have fought him.Comment
