    First off, people need to stop acting like De la Hoya was the same fighter since his first loss back in 99 to Trinidad. He was never the same fighter after. Especially after leaving Alcazar.

    I bet you say that DLH is a credible win for Pacquiao though huh? Even though Pacquiao dragged him down to 147, you know...A weight he wasn't able to make anymore, nor didn't make since, yet again, the Trinidad fight. Which was almost 8 or 9 years before he signed to fight Pacquiao.

    So yeah, DLH was done a while before and he was just riding out what he had left...But I think Mayweather got the better DLH.

    Hatton was undefeated regardless, if he was so wack, how did the judges give him the vote, unanimous too?

    Cotto had a rough time with Margarito and Pacquiao but he rebuilt himself and now look at him. It was a process but he bounced back and catapulted himself into something he never was before. Then he fought Mayweather, looking better than ever.

    Really? Come on man.

      HIGHLY DOUBT THIS HAPPENS. But, if he finsihed it out like this and actually won all these fights, what would his legacy be???
      It's never gonna end.

      This same question was asked 4 years ago. Once he did it, the fans/media just came out with a new list.

      It will never be enough, we will always want more.

        How can any Pac fan have the nerve to talk about the timing of when Floyd fought the boxers he beat.

        When Pac has even better timing and adds CW's to the list.

        Are you serious ??

          For every boxer you say Floyd ducked, i can name one Pac ducked.

          For every Boxer you say Floyd should have fought at a different time, i can say the same with Pac.

          One example, instead of fighting an obviously washed up and trigger shy Mosley, Berto was available as an option, according to Arum he wasnt a big enough draw.

          Yet Pac already fought Clottey and is now fighting Bradley. So much for the no draw excuse

            im really not into ratings and rankings but those "wins" would really catapult him far beyond where he is now...

              LOL at all these people saying he'd make their top 20. If he isn't already in your top 10, your top 10 is that of someone completely new to boxing. If he does that, he's top 3. No question.

                damn that looks really really awful for manny then, cause if DLH was way old when mayweather fought him, manny should be embarrassed for fighting him even after that. and you're proud of manny for beating up an old floyd leftover?! (not even considering hatton and mosley along in that list) tisk tisk shame on you pac boy! shame. on. you...

                  What if Floyd beat Hatton, Mosley, Cotto and DLH ? And people were saying there's no way he would do that.

                  So to answer your question : what would his legacy be???

                  His legacy would be nothing, people will just line up 4 differents guys that will be popular 2016 and people will say what if Floyd beat these guys
                  Perfect answer!!!!
