Garcia obviously. I rate Garcia beating Lucas about equal to Canelo beating Trout. Both guys were ducked and avoided many times, and both were for the top spot at the weight class.
But that was Canelo's only good win, although it was a very very good win. Garcia also has Judah, Morales, and Khan.
I look at it like this.....Floyd gets his due for beating Canelo, who was much much bigger and was coming off a huge win coming in, and was the top dog at 154. And Floyd would get about equal due for Garcia who's top dog at 140 and coming off big wins, but he would have to come up in weight.
But I see Danny as Top 10 P4P now, I didn't think Canelo was quite there yet.

I actually rank the Matthysse win above the Trout win since I think Matthysse had proven more in the Junior Welterweight division than Trout had at 154. Cotto was a good win, but Cotto was coming off a loss and hadn't really done much at 154 to begin with.
Garcia has the better resume, but I had believed, like many did, that he had over achieved and even lucky and someone would expose him. Hats off to Garcia for being better than I or people originally thought.
Garcia and Floyd has to happen now it seems, and Floyd would probably outbox Garcia. But it seems there are a number of challenges to FLoyd now, and Floyd is running out of time as well with his planed retirement.
Im sure FLoyd can fit in Garcia, Khan, Bradley and swansong Sergio. I think Floyd might as well fight strong champions because he is quite capable and he shouldn't underestimate himself like he has in the past.
The way people are talking about Canelo now though, it's like the Floyd win over him doesn't even matter. Canelo still beat Trout, who was a damn good fighter, and was still top guy at JMW.
