    just wanted to remind you guys of that. Meanwhile, Arguello was thought to be the most devastating puncher of his division at 130lbs.

    Floyd won on the effect of accurate punches...not necessarily on power. And you'd be a fool to think Mayweather could go 15 rounds with those brittle knuckles...with someone of Arguello's caliber (but then again, this isn't a head-to-head comparison, it's a Relative comparison).
    Wtf?

    Floyd hit like a ****ing truck at 130. Did you even watch him fight at 130?

      This makes no sense whatsoever. wtf? what does power have to do with achievements? Valero probably had more power then Mayweather or Pacquiao but may and Pac are still more achieved and did more.

I have Elorde at #3 even ahead of Nelson but not that much. Hell I also think the very underrated Brian Mitchell could be in the top 5.

          130 is a pretty deep division with a solid history. To act like if Floyd can not be lower than #2 is just insane and not really knowing that history. However, it all falls under preference and opinion.
          Brian Mitchell is very underrated at 130. Since many fighter wouldn't fight a fighter from South Africa during the time. The fight with Nelson never happened

          It sucks that Casa and Freitas fights never happened at 130. Those would've been great wins for his resume

            It's not that farfetched

            But it's also not as obvious as some people are making it out to be (ceilings)

              how come i'm not allowed to use ***** logic? arguello and nelson would have destroyed sanders and floyd nearly lost to him. case closed!

                no he really didn't. genaro hernandez, carlos gerena, jesus chavez, and corrales were all corner stoppages. if he hit like a truck why did it always take a sustained beating to get the corner to stop those fights? if he really hit like a truck wouldn't they go down and not be able to get up or be so badly hurt the ref has to stop it?

                    What did my post have to do with an ATG ranking?

                      You're right Floyd had no power at 130. And a corner telling their fighter that theyve had enough of watching him get his face beat in means the KO didnt count and means Floyd didnt have power.

                      Go the pinoy lounge. Goodness kid.
