Mayweather is also held to.a much much much higher standard. Hopkins can fight Top 10 guys in his weight class and get credited as a good win. Floyd can fight a top guy in his weight class coming off 3 good solid wins at the weight, with a title, and get crapped on.
Mayweather as far as boxing men in there prime and not avoiding anyone. I can only think of three on that list that I consider an accomplishment--Castillo, Corrales and Judah. The rest of them were past there prime or fighting way above there TRUE fighting weight.
Hopkins fought tuff and won some and lost some. Either way it was a competitive fight. He avoided no one.
Clearly Mayweather. You count just forget about losses when judging ones resume. If you look at their wins only its about even. If you look at the whole body of work as you should, it's clearly Mayweather.
