      You spent all day arguing with me yesterday that Mosley was a great win for Floyd because of his ranking. So now ranking isnt important? You just jump all over the place and run in circles.

        Because when you said this... it came off differently.

          LMAO! Yo dog...are you slow?

          We are discussing Antonio Margarito's prime. And you are using his ranking as a means to measure his prime. That is just FALSE. My God! PLEASE, SOMEONE HELP ME HERE!! I'm jumping all over the place? ME? Read your post again!

            What does it mean, Reed? That because of that, Mosley was better than he was in 2001? NO! But was he the best welter in 2009? YES! Make sense? I guess not...

              I agree with that.

                Yea fighters usually obtain their major success after their prime. Thats usually how it works.

                  No, not usually. But there are exceptions. Feel free to make a related point though.

                    I hope my man Pac really fights PBF but I just don't see that happening considering his legal troubles (that IMO is why PBF isn't thinking about boxing atm because he actually might go to jail this time because of his past history of assaults).

                    If JMM really wants to fight Pac, come up to fight him. Pacquaio has been fighting as WW now for 2 years. If he wants the challenge come up to 144 at least.

                    Berto himself seems like he doesn't want to fight Pac.

                    I wouldn't mind a Martinez fight but I'm not sure Pac will win this to be honest.

                    Which leaves Mosley. Its obvious top rank is looking at the $$$ but c'mon now.

                    My man Pac needs to fight top tier competition and Mosley at this point in his career doesn't fit that bill.

                      You came off like Mosley was still a very good fighter because of his ranking in the beginning of this thread, so that quote seemed odd to me.
