    judah just lost. hatton fight wasn't at LWW. Mosley demonstrated that he was over the hill in the very next fight.


    He has a pretty good resume but the fact is he doesn't have any prime HOF fighters on his resume.


    I'm simply agreeing with the OP that his best opponent is an over the hill, shot Mosley. That is all.

      It seems like a pretty simple question guys, IS MOSLEY FLOYD'S BEST WIN?

      Stop giving a list of names and just name the fighter or fighters above Mosely in order of who you think is Floyd's best win.

      I think it goes:

      Mosely
      Delahoya
      Corrales

      They are his top 3 wins, rated by overall quality and state they were in when he fought them.

        so since when do being one of the best at your weight division with no real period of title dominance or without beating other HOF fighters get you in the HOF?


        Answer the question.
        what are you talking about dumby?

        he was dominating that division before floyd fought him, was knocking damn near everybody out---loses to floyd--and comes back and starts winning again--don't give me that **** boy--


        and him fighting floyd alone, who is considered by many one of the greatest, if not, the greatest sfw fighter ever, gets him closer to the hall of fame--

        his battle with castillio does also--get a grip man--

          thats simply not true. mosely is the 2nd best fighter on his resume, dlh is the first. but that does not = his best opponent. thats a fallacy.

          and as far as saying zab just lost, so what??? he beat the guy that beat zab too and got nothing for it. and who cares where hatton was, nothing would have changed. u cant criticize the ww champ for fighting hatton at ww when u have pac fighting cotto for his belt at a catchweight. i dont get u ppl.

            it's not a simple question when he adds insults to it/ basically bashing floyd, and trying to take credit away from him--it's bull**** and you know it---

            i put coralles as floyd's best win--then de la hoya--then shane--then hatton--then jmm--then hernandez--even though i switch hernandez with hatton a lot-lol

            then castillio---then judah and gatti---then chavez--

              so by getting dominated by Floyd gets him in the HOF?

              and him going 1-1 with another non-HOFer gets him there..... surely right? makes sense.

                man, can you read idiot? damn, you're slow--i said it gets him one step close to the hall of fame idiot--and him dominating the sfw division at the time he did, and his fight with castillio gets him closer--stop being so annoying man-lol

                  Zab losing to Baldomir says more about Zab than Baldomir. Overrated. Baldomir is just Baldomir, showed up at the perfect time to get a WBC strap. Weakest link.

                  How do you know nothing would've changed if Floyd had to drop an additional 7 lbs? He couldnt make 144 lbs against Marquez. It would've made all the difference in the world. Floyd would've been drained. Period.

                  it's funny talking to Floyd supporters. so emotional when presented with facts. it's like talking to women.

                    I would rate coralles higher but his overall resume isn't as good as Mosley or DLH. DLH had a better overall career than Mosely at the point Floyd fought him but was also a part time fighter at the time, I also deduct points from that win because it was a close fight. Mosely is his best win based on Mosley's status at the time and Floyd's performance over Mosley.

                      so im emotional when im stating facts myself??? so a ww champion and the p4p #1 fighter in the world should meet a fighter on his turf in order to get credit??? sheeeeeit so wats up with all this credit pac has been getting??? the double standards on this board are disgusting.

                      as far as the zab thing, ok??? zab was still on of the top 5 ww's am i correct??? no matter how hard u try to kill the win, it was a good win. zab lost to baldomir, he got out hustled. he wasnt destroyed or anything. zab was a legit challenge, it was a legit fight. nothing cherry picked about it. baldomir was a ok fight, nothing special. margs was the only fighter better than those two and even he wasnt nothing special imo. but yea i once again will say floyd should have fought him. that doesnt take away from him beating two top 5 welters tho.
