    1998: Genaro Hernandez (38-1-1)- W RTD8 (Won WBC Super Featherweight title)
    ---Hadn't lost in 3 years (only loss was to De La Hoya), coming off wins over C. Hernandez and Gerena.

    1998: Angel Manfredy (25-2-1)- W TKO2
    ---Hadn't lost in 4 years, coming off wins over Ruiz and Gatti.

    2000: Gregorio Vargas (40-6-1)- W UD12
    ---Hadn't lost in 3 years, no significant wins though. Lost to C. Hernandez and Molina.

    2001: Diego Corrales (33-0)- W TKO10
    ---Unbeaten, coming off wins over Garcia, Juuko, and Manfredy.

    2001: Carlos Hernandez (33-2-1)- W UD12

    2002: Jose Luis Castillo (45-4-1)- W UD12 (Won WBC and RING Lightweight titles)
    ---Hadn't lost in 4 years, coming off wins over Johnston and Bazan.

    2002: Jose Luis Castillo (46-5-1)- W UD12
    ---Immediate rematch.

    2003: Phillip N'dou (31-1)- W TKO7
    ---Hadn't lost in 5 years, no significant wins.

    2004: DeMarcus Corley (28-2-1)- W UD12
    ---Coming off controversial loss to Judah and win over Bailey.

    2005: Arturo Gatti (39-6)- W RTD6 (Won WBC Jr. Welterweight title)
    ---Hadn't lost in 3 years, coming off wins over Ward, Branco, and Dorin.

    2006: Zab Judah (34-3)- W UD12 (Won IBF Welterweight title)
    ---Coming off win over Spinks and loss to Baldomir.

    2006: Carlos Baldomir (43-9-6)- W UD12 (Won WBC and RING Welterweight titles)
    ---Hadn't lost in 8 years, coming off wins over Gatti and Judah.

    2007: Oscar De La Hoya (38-4)- W SD12 (Won WBC Super Welterweight title)
    ---Coming off loss to Hopkins, retired, and than came back to KO Mayorga.

    2007: Ricky Hatton (43-0)- W TKO10
    ---Unbeaten, coming off wins over Tszyu, Collazo, Urango, and Castillo.

    2009: Juan Manuel Marquez (50-4-1)- W UD12
    ---Only losses in 10 years were controversial L's to John in 06' and Pacquiao in 08'. Coming off wins over Barrera, Casamayor, and Diaz.

    2010: Shane Mosley (46-5)- W UD12 (WBA Welterweight title on the line only for Mosley)
    ---Hadn't lost in 3 years, coming off wins over Mayorga and Margarito.

    2011: Victor Ortiz (29-2-2)- W KO4 (Won WBC Welterweight title)
    ---Coming off loss to Maidana, and wins over Diaz, Campbell, Berto, and a draw he should have won over Peterson.

    I'd give his resume a B- or B. He definitely could have had an A resume if he'd beat Margarito in 06' and Cotto in 08', but he can still get up there. Sergio at 154-155 would boost it big time, definitely to a B+, maybe even A-. And, of course Pacquiao would.

    Floyd's resume....good and he's an ATG, but it should get better his last couple years here.

    C+

    His career is FULL of cherry picks and he is one of the most overrated stars in boxing history.

            Its the truth. I mean ya Floyd is undefeated and stuff, but when you really look at who he has fought... I think you could argue a few other guys currently fighting would be undefeated also. DLH would be, Cotto would be, Pac would be, and there are probably others. So many current boxers with better resumes then him but a loss or two takes away from them I guess.

              Every elite boxer in the history of the sport has cherry picked one way or the other since a lot of money started pouring into the sport. Nonetheless, Mayweather still fought some really good fighters.

                    Corrales, the way he dominated Gatti, Chavez, practically shut out Mosley & toyed with Marquez at any weight from me deserves a B+

                    Overall I think he's at an A- and needs to add the finishing touches to his resume. Pac & maybe say Bradley give him an A

                    It's not just Floyd beating these guys it's the fashion he does it.
