      I love Mayweather, but he's not greater than Sugar Ray Leonard.

          He's the greatest since Leonard though, hands down.

          This fight moves Floyd to around Top 20-25 IMO.

              10 years from now we might look back and think that Floyd's best win of his career was Canelo Alvarez. Alvarez is a young bull in his prime with over 40 fights, he could easily clean out 154 and 160 over the next 5 years and be an all-time great himself.

              Corrales and Oscar were great wins, Oscar looked very good in that fight. Cotto was a great win, Hatton was a great win.

              That's the thing, Floyd has fought a lot of guys the haters said he never would. He made a fight with Cotto literally days after Cotto left top ranked. He fought Mosely at 154 after Mosely looked ready to clean that division out. And then he fought a young bull in Canelo who was undefeated. Then they finally made the Pacquaio fight. All of these fights are ones his detractors said he would never take. Hatton beats Tzsyu and calls Floyd out and he fights an undefeated Hatton. Marquez publicly calls him and out and he fights and shuts him out.

              Honestly, the only fight I think he had a realistic shot of making that he didn't make was Margarito, he fought Baldimir instead because he was the lineal champion and it made the Oscar fight more likely. But then Margarito turned out to be a cheater anyways, but Floyd fought Mosely just after Mosely crushed Margarito anyway.

              Paul Williams? If he would have kept winning he might have been a big enough name eventually.

              I think Floyd is top 10, anyone who has him outside the top 15 must really think this entire era was weak, anyone who has him outside the top 20 is simply hating. He's 48-0 and 25-0 in championship fights. 25-0!

                Great fighter, but top 20 is pushing it. His biggest win is a fight that should have happened years ago. One of the greatest defensive fighters for sure.

                  Another mediocre win for Jr. over a blown up light welterweight out of his prime.

                  Not impressed with the win but I see the potential Jr. has.

                      Pacquiao is an ATG and was #2-3 P4P coming into this fight. This was universally regarded as still two of the best fighters in the world. Should have happened years ago, don't blame Floyd for it not happening in 2010. We ALL know why it didn't.

                      I'd place him somewhere from 21-25 all time.
