hatton was ranked number 1 140 not 147Genaro Hernandez was the #1 ranked Jr. Lightweight in the world when Floyd fought him.
Angel Manfredy was the #1 ranked Jr. Lightweight when Floyd fought him (manfredy was #2 at the time floyd fought genaro).
Jose Castillo was the #1 ranked lightweight in the world when Floyd fought him.
Ricky Hatton was the #1 ranked Jr. Welterweight in the world when Floyd fought him.
Carlos Baldomir was the #1 ranked Welterweight in the world when Floyd fought him.
Oscar De La Hoya was the #1 ranked Jr. Middleweight in the world when Floyd fought him.
JMM was the #1 ranked Lightweight in the world when Floyd fought him.
Now Shane Mosley is considered the #1 Welterweight in the world.
How can anyone hate on that resume? Seriously.
de la hoya was ranked 6th not 1
jmm was ****ing number 1 135 for **** sake man not at anything higher where those 2 fought
also pac is ranked higher in some places than mosley but i will give you that for funComment

as for comparing the resume to pac, everyone who is unbiased knows pacs si better but you gotta remember its because mayweather stopped caring about legacy and focused on the green only
moralis, barrera and marquez. he fought those 3 at their best weight (ok questions could be asked about moralis 2nd and 3rd)
hatton, he fought hatton at his best best weight, that hatton win is higher
i think the dela hoya is even, floyd went up from 147 to 154 to fight the guy, pac went up front 135 to 147 to fight him which was amazing
pac has since fought cotto, after pac beat the guy his stock was way higher but now mayweather is fighting mosley, it brings those 2 close together, i would still give pac the edge slightly but the mosley fight will add gloss to mayweathers resumeComment

Floyd has a good resume would school any fighter out there not named Pacquiao.
They are the only real test for each other because they are two ATG's who are head and shoulders above anyone else in the lower weight classes and have been for quite some time. It's easy to criticise Mayweather because he makes his opponents look so bad that after the fight people say 'he fought an easy opponent'....and this will continue to happen until Mayweather fights Pacquiao.
Mayweather would have schooled Cotto too, by the way. I'll repeat it. The only fight out there is Mayweather/Pacquiao. The rest is taking the public for a ride.
The fact that they have not and may never fight each other should go down as one of the biggest travesties in the history of boxing and if it happens the boxing world should never be forgiven. I don't feel I'm exagerrating.
The Clottey fight was a farce man. An absolute joke, no contest.
And after Mayweather beats a 39 year old Mosley, that fight will have meant nothing also.
Boxing needs this fight badly. We need the fights to actually ****in MEAN something.Comment

How many of those ranked #1 that Floyd fought were on the P4P list when he fought them?
Of those who are in the P4P list when Floyd fought them, how many had to go up a weight class or more to fight Floyd? And how many of those are over 35 years old at the time he fought them?Comment

That Hatton comment ****s me to tears you dumb *** , dont you know anything about weigh-in and fight weight , Hatton weighed the same getting KOed by Floyd as he did against KT Castillo and Pac , and Floyd was a pound lighter than Hatton being 151 , WWs come in at around 160 Floyd and Pac are tiny WWs ,,,,, when I see this **** I know you are a bias ***wit that has blinkers on to the sport of boxing .as for comparing the resume to pac, everyone who is unbiased knows pacs si better but you gotta remember its because mayweather stopped caring about legacy and focused on the green only
moralis, barrera and marquez. he fought those 3 at their best weight (ok questions could be asked about moralis 2nd and 3rd)
hatton, he fought hatton at his best best weight, that hatton win is higher

How the *** can Hatton against Pac be better than the undefeated Hatton against Floyd Hatton looked terrible against Pac mentally not in it , you call weight when they all weighed the same , get the *** outa here and go and learn the workings inside the sport other than the hype articles .Comment
