here on NSB you're gonna get alot more people who saw Floyd's career and not Arguello's whole career...so I wouldn't be at all surprised with Floyd edging it out.

Ask Bert Sugar, Larry Merchant and basically any boxing historian who covered boxing during the 70's-80's, and into present day "who would win, Arguello or Floyd Mayweather Jr....or "who's the greatest super FW of all time?"...

Arguello (HoF) will be the answer maybe 90% of the time or more.
As for who's got the better resume....that's a laughable question. Come on now.

Ruben Olivares (HoF), Alfredo Escalera twice, Rafael Limon, Bobby Chacon (HoF), Rolando Navarette, Ruben Castillo, Boza-Edwards, Boom Boom Mancini, Aaron Pryor (HoF) twice, Jose Luis Ramirez ("beat" sweet pea, Boza-Edwards).

Dude.....you can play "Pick A Boxing Hall of Famer" with Arguello's resume. It's not even close.

the fight never would have happened. floyd would have said look this guys been knocked out twice before(early in his career) and i'll just knock him out again(then he goes on vacation)

Fight would not happen..

Floyd will demand OST...
Alexis will agree...
Floyd will go on vacation not thinking about boxing..
Wish it would happen but lets face it.. Floyd doesnt care about legacy.. Belts just collect dust to Floyd..

It kind of depends on the criteria, it is certainly a good debate. Also who was Floyd reticent about fighting at 130, and why would he fear anyone at that point in his career he was beasting on everyone he fought.

he recently came out and said he doesn't fight for money. so he doesn't fight for money, legacy, or for the fans. he's just a deranged lunatic who likes getting punched?

that's what happens when people try to have a serious discussion and include mayweather who is not a serious fighter.
