    1)Mosley beat Margarito to become the number one welterweight after Floyd's retirement in '07

    2) Bradley "earned" his ranking and WBOgus belt over getting a robbery win over Pacquaio, beating JMM(whose only win at the weight is over Pacquaio), he beat unranked Provodnikov and Abregu and drew with Diego Chavez who just recently made the rankings off his close fight with Desert Storm


    3)Mosley was past prime, I agree but he also is a more accomplished welterweight than Bradley is or may ever be....Lineal champion....defeated Luis Collazo, Oscar De La Hoya, Antonio Diaz, Antonio Maragrito, Pablo Cesar Cano, Jose Luis Cruz, David Estrada, Wilfredo Rivera





    In the end.....beating a world champion trumps beating a trinket holder


    Mosley was past prime also Mayweather was but he helped him look bad because of his skills...Mosley always gets hesitant and his punch out put drops when he gets outboxed.....he is a boxer-brawler....a speedy guy that is aggressive.....Guys like Forrest and Wright showed if you box him he gets hesistant and gets all jittery..... when he fought Cotto he didn't tense up because Cotto doesnt have the outside boxing skills of these guys and he is/was a but more aggressive
    ok but mosley was clearly shot. what do accomplishments matter when you are shot? roy jones is more accomplished than kovalev but kovalev is much better now just like bradley and cotto were better when pac fought them as opposed to when floyd fought mosley. mosley looked shot well before the marg fight so the signs were there. 1 fight where he looked ok(he clinched nonstop during it) and you forgot how bad he looked for years? that's not being a very good fan. pac also easily beat mosley so i dont see why that win should be so good for just floyd. are you saying mosley became shot a year after losing to floyd yet the 18 month layoff didn't matter at all?
