    Compare those
    "good wins" to Floyds good wins. It is not even close.

      Cotto beat Judah easier, Pac beat ODLH and Hatton easier.

        Yeah but after Floyd beat them. Right after Floyd beat them. Kessler had some time to recover, but beating a fighter after is less impressive than beating them first.

          WW Marquez is much better than any of Joe's wins (Hopkins excluded)

                    Floyd based on his 135 and below resume, also the likes of Hatton and JMM while lower weight fighters where both top 10 p4p.

                      Beating a Shot(Roy Jones), Old(Hopkins), and 1 good opponent(Kessler)

                      Propels Calzaghe's legacy above Mayweather who actually beat people who were in their prime(Castillo, Hatton, Corrales). Where the hell is the logic?

                      P4P?!!!!

                      because there's honestly no contest in the resume's right now, and Mayweather's resume is only going to get better after he touches gloves with Mosley, Pacquiao, and potentially whomever is available at Welter Weight, be it an Andre Berto, potentiall Paul Williams. Or maybe even an Amir Khan and Saul Alvarez down the line.

                      And I gotta slightly apologize for talking about FANTASY fights, but its lunacy to compare a retired fighters resume to an active fighters resume, when the retired fighters resume wasn't even better prior to retiring.
