Why doesn't Floyd fight the best?

[Cherry Picker]

Simple question: Why doesn't Floyd fight the best guys out there? He has been at 147 for nearly five years now. Surely Hatton, Marquez and a 38 year old Mosley doesn't make you the greatest of all time? (Floyd says he is) I will put a poll up so vote away.

baldo=linear champ
hatton=p4p top5 former wba ww champ
mosley=p4p#3 ww wba champ
jmm=times up p4p#2 linear lw champ
oscar-top 5 lmw wbc champ


how doesnt he fight the best again?? 3 of his last 5 fights were p4p fighters and all were current champs

Hatton is not a top 147 fighter and neither is Marquez.

[M.I Truth ?]

Hatton is not a top 147 fighter and neither is Marquez.

Hatton was ranked at welter because he won a title there.
