    Mayweather's top 5 wins

    Which 5 wins do you consider his top 5 wins and why? Don't turn this into a thread about how good or bad his resume is compared to other ATG resumes, 'cus that's not what this thread is about.

    My guess...

    1: Diego Corrales. Obvious.
    2: Ricky Hatton. Obvious number 2.
    3: Jose Luis Castillo. Castillo was a great and underrated fighter with a controversial loss to Floyd and he also got a win over a slightly past it Corrales, but his loss to Ricky Hatton makes him number 3.
    4: now i get blank... canelo seems obvious, but i think he lost to trout. cotto seems obvious, but i don't like that he lost to trout afterwards and got a gift decision against joshua clottey. hmm... help me?

    Not sure about Hatton its a solid win don't get me wrong but the guy arguably never won a fight at welter.

        1) Corrales
        2) De La Hoya (this fight made him a star and a five division champion)
        3) Cotto (made him a 9X champion)
        4) Genaro Henandez (his first title)
        5) Canelo (Proved that no matter how big, strong, or young a fighter is Mayweather can still outwit him)

          1. Cotto - past peak
          2. Corrales - drained
          3. Castillo - robbed
          4. Hoya - past peak
          5. Mosley - washed up and long lay off

          Some great names there on Mayweathers resume. Though it's hardly ATG status considering the circumstances. Unfortunately, most will not remember this. Easily the best match maker of all time. Although he does have a number of wins against decent fighters like Corley, Manfredy, Canelo, Genaro.

            LOL, ODLH and Mosely didn't want to fight a prime Floyd, ODLH not until he realised there was a big pay day.
