    Does Floyd overtake Pac in ATG rankings if Mosley is victorious this Saturday?

    I think majority of rational boxing fans (non-***** or non-*******) believe that Pacquiao is ahead of Mayweather in the ATG rankings.

    However, let's say Mosley defeats Pacquiao this Saturday, would you rank Floyd ahead of Manny in the ATG P4P rankings?
    21
    Floyd overtakes him in ATG rankings
    42.86%
    9
    Pac still ahead of Floyd in ATG rankings
    38.10%
    8
    Not sure
    19.05%

    No. Mayweather really isn't that close to Pacquiao, and losing to Mosley doesn't change what Pacquiao's already done. Beating Mosley didn't put him above Pacquiao, neither will Pacquiao losing.

      I dont know about that 1. If floyds fights good fights he will. all these bull**** fight Pac has been fighting(minus cotto which was a great win) will be seen as bull**** once everything settles. Right now Pac is on top and everything is swinging in his favor.

        No way. Losing to Shane doesn't cancel out past accomplishments.


        What kind of question is that?

          If Floyd beats Manny head to head, it will close the gap some. Floyd's ATG status isn't affected at all due to the outcome of the Manny-Shane fight.

          It's not like he's the only dude to beat Shane......

            this...

            losing doesn't take away the fact that he is the only boxer in history who won 4 lineal titles in as many divisions.

              Too big of a gap in ATG rankings. A Mosley win is not ATG changer.

                No it does not. I have Manny somewhere between 15-15 ATG and Floyd somewhere 30-40. However, if Floyd and Manny fight within the next 2 years and Floyd wins convincingly you Pac fans are going to have a tough argument on your hands for who is higher ATG. Likewise if they fight within the next 2 years and Pac wins, he can certainly make an argument for being a top 10 ATG. If Floyd were to fight and beat both Pac and Martinez he would move into the top 10 ATG. All of this of course is in my humble opinion.

                  Floyd beating Pac doesn't put him ahead of pac atg-wise imo, manny would still have accomplished more as a boxer.

                  beating pac AND sergio would though, especially if he beats sergio at 160 for the recognized MW championship
