An opinion is an opinion just like a resume is a resume record is record.Yes Mosley has a better resume not because he has more wins or loses but it's the quality of oposition he has faced and I mean in their primes not just by great names!!Comment

I don't understand the argument in this thread. Yes, there is a difference between resume and record. Guys like Jermain Taylor do have really good resumes. If you wonder where the losses fit then, they fit in when talking about RECORD and where that record puts that fighter when talking about their career.
Oscar had a great resume, but since he lost like half his big fights he it is reflected in where you would place him when talking about the best ever. Jermain Taylor has a really good resume, but since he has lost so many fights by KO you don't talk about him as being one of the best ever.
How is that hard to understand? Pac has a great resume, and is talked about so highly because he has won so many of the big fights. Ali has one of the best resumes of all time, and is considered arguably the greatest because he won almost all of them.Comment

I rate it like this.
Resumes are a fighters best wins, good wins,etc.
There level of competition is the level of fighters they fought throughout their careers.
For example:
Mayweathers resume
Diego Corrales
Oscar De La Hoya
Jose luis Castillo x2
Ricky Hatton
Arturo Gatti
Zab Judah
Genaro Hernandez
(not in any particular order)
Other notable wins are Carlos Baldomir, Jesus Chavez, DeMarcus Corley.
Mosley's resume
Oscar De La Hoya x2
Antonio Margarito
Fernando Vargas x2
Ricardo Mayorga
Luis Collazo
(not in any particular order)
There's probably a few more notable fighters in there also.
There resumes are closer than what alot of people think. I actually give Floyd a slight edge at the moment.
Now....The level of competition goes to Mosley hands down.
All the fighters i named above on Floyds resume are the best fighters he's fought and because he's never lost there are no big fights i left out.
Mosley however has lost to the likes of Forrest, Wright and Cotto which easily push Mosley ahead ( combined with the fighters i mentioned above on his resume) in the level of competition catergory.Comment

It's wins and losses. He's proven himself against the best out there in different eras, hence why he's won and lost some. He's obviously special if he can survive in the business for so long and still be winning at his age.
In Mayweather's case, clearly he is more skilled which prompts people to have him automatically win every fantasy match, but he hasn't proven it in reality against the real best in the business, which makes him look vunerable. Not really sure why he doesn't because he has the skills to cause anyone trouble, must be a mental thing.Comment

I think that pretty much classifies him as fearless, regardless of what you think of him.Comment

Why remove the 154 lb fights? That's part of what makes Shane who he is. He was small for the weight but still chased people there. That was when he only threw on or two punches at a time, like Floyd now. That's what makes shanes's resume better than floyds. It's not like Floyd didn't fight at 154 once so it's a perfectly good question. You
only want to drop shane's time at 154 cuz you know that's at least 2 more l's for Floyd (another reason why shane's resume is better, cuz you know Floyd would have a worse record than Shane does not if he had fought shane's opponents). You are so transparent burner. Transparent means we can see right through you and can tell why you make up all the little excuses that you do.Comment
