      u are getting boring. BOOORRRINNNG!!!!!!!!!!! seriously u keep going back to this "oh but they were ranked top 5, they were ranked top 5, they were ranked top 5" nonsense hahahahhahaha. again, step away from the numbers, step away from boxrec, and USE UR HEAD. when u actually critically think and use ur brain u'll see they're not great wins despite what their rankings were. this is the point of the whole thread. floyd's wins are overrated when u actually ANALYZE THEM. just because they were ranked top 5 doesn't give u the BIGGER REEEEAAALLLL PICTURE. and the real picture was that none of them were really at their best or anywhere near their best or seen as the big threat they used to be. maybe their high ranking was more of a case of the welterweight division being weak and/or a lot of these journalists not knowing what they're talking about (i mean ring magazine wrongly ranked canelo top ten p4p before his fight with floyd).

          it's not wlad's fault. he fights all the best in or below his division and makes no excuses at all. unlike floyd who waits until his competition gets war torn and way past it before he even considers fighting them (sometimes floyd doesn't fight them at all). wlad is willing and ready to fight the best IN THEIR PRIME. wlad won't end his career fighting a berto type fighter. he will fight guys like anthony joshua, wilder, maybe a povetkin rematch, etc.

          wlad is a bigger hero than ur punk mayweather.

            Mayweather isn't in his prime, if someone was to beat him they still beat the best fighter in the world, fact. It wasn't just the magazines that had them ranked so highly everyone did, where did you have Pacquiao P4P before the Mayweather fight? Pacquiao past prime? Yes. Pacquiao still the 2nd best fighter in the world only behind Mayweather going into the fight? Yes.

            Mayweather beat the best and that's a fact.

                  mayweather beat the "best" WHEN THEY WEREN'T ANYWHERE NEAR THEIR BEST. that's the BIG DIFFERENCE that you completely keep overlooking and it's sad and pathetic. just admit that floyd never fought any top elite fighter in their prime because he was TOO SCARED TO TAKE THE RISK! it's really easy to understand. his resume is completely overrated because at the end of the day he never fought and beat any elite fighter in their prime. no amount of fluffing will change this very simple fact.

                  floyd could have fought and beaten a prime manny, a prime cotto, prime mosley, williams, margarito, martinez, GGG, khan, etc. but he chose not to fight them. he instead waited it out, took "retirements", put up roadblocks/made excuses, only fought once a year, etc. how is this TBE??? how is this the attitude of an ATG top ten p4p all time???? it's a big joke really.

                    You picked Pacquiao to beat Mayweather, you probably picked Canelo etc to win too but then discredit him when he beats them.

                      In his prime, Floyd was a lightweight.

                      But you know, dude should fight GGG or he is a coward.
