Floyd has defeated the #1 guy in EVERY division he has been in

[Lords]

All of these guys had a better resume at 154 at the time:

James Kirkland
Erislandy Lara
Serhiy Dzinziruk
Alfredo Angulo
Carlos Molina

The following had about as good a resume and would have beaten him head-to-head:
Trout
Canelo
Martyrosyan

thats not true. floyd/margarito was being talked about in 2006. margarito confronted him at the mosley/vargas press conference. floyd was offered 6 mil for that fight. that was the fight people wanted. not baldomir.

oh yea of course the people wanted margarito not baldomir..... (sigh) 1:30 of vid

Thats a pretty bad list when its put like that. Aside from just being impressed by the name (in this case, the lack of being impressed), when you look deeper, those guys were either not actually the best although they had got that ranking, but most has left their best fights in the ring years before Floyd fought them
