    It's unbelievable to look back on.
    Definitely. The biggest issue with Floyd's resume is WHEN he beat them. If he beat all of the names on his resume when they were at there absolute best he would have much more of an argument.

          Floyd hasnt fought a HOF fighter in their prime EVER. While Ali has beaten multiple HOF heavyweights multiple times in the Golden Age of heavyweight boxing.
          that's not really true.

          Floyd has fought a couple of HOFamers in their prime.

          Let's not act as if Floyd doesn't have a great resume. He does. There are some asterisks to it though, and obviously incomparable to the monstrous resume of Ali.

            There are plenty of fighters with better resumes than Floyd. No question.

              There are plenty of fighters with better resumes than Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, I think it goes without saying, and a thread isn't needed to prove this point.

                Ali arguably fought the best Como of any fighter ever


                His resume ****s on all other heavyweight champs n other weight champs

                Including both sugar rays, monzon, hagler, pacquaio, Hopkins, ezzard Charles the list goes on and on


                What's your point?


                Still don't change the fact that you can only face whose in your era


                That being said Floyd has defeated more lineal champions and won more lineal title fights than anyone in his era in his era....atg status

                    Who? Honestly curious, Oscar, Mosley, Cotto, and Manny were or will be past prime.

                      But what does this say about Manny's resume.

                      Were Mosley, Morales, Delahoya in their primes when he fought them?
