I'd say Top 15-20 is more fair. Boxrec has Roberto Duran like #60 which is bollocks.
Mayweather #7 All-Time according to Boxrec.

I always find it weird that people say Manny laid an egg when Floyd just as much as him.
Different standards for each fighter?Comment

Maybe one day when I'm curious enough I'll calculate what boxrec would have given RJJ if he had retired at a more reasonable point.Roy Jones Jr is still fighting, apparently with two more fights scheduled for August.
If Roy had retired in 2003, after the narrow win over Antonio Tarver, he would've retired 48-1 (having emphatically corrected the "defeat"), a four-division world champion, and arguably the sport's most physically gifted fighter ever.
KO loss to Tarver, KO loss to Johnson, KO loss to Danny Green, KO loss to Denis Lebedev and wide decision losses to Calzaghe, Hopkins, and Tarver later, while still fighting, Roy dropping down to #50 makes sense. Roy winning a world title at cruiserweight, giving him a 5th divisional world title, would help the ranking, but Jones hung around too long to have that help all that much.Comment
