I actually managed to edit my own post accidentally..
Anyway the RING (a major publication) ranked Manny above both Floyd and Shane in 2009 and 2010 as seen here:

Well those are the dates i'm talking about, as Floyd actually beat Shane in 2010.. I assume Manny's completely dominant win over Cotto had a lot to do with it. Springs Toledo, who now writes for TBRB, responded to me regarding this one and said that Floyd and Shane weren't ranked 1 and 2.

Here is his quote:
Mararito was ranked #4 when he faced Cotto, who was #1 according to The Ring before their bout.
Margarito was #1 and Mosley was #3 when they fought, with Cotto at #2. Floyd was #3 and Mosley #2 when they fought, with Pacquiao at #1.
There have been no #1 vs. #2 matches at Welterweight since Floyd retired in 2008.
