Resumes are given too much credit here.

    Just like when Floyd faught Ghost he was an undefeated top contender, if ghosts went on to become trash doesnt mean Floyd doesnt get full credit for it.
    Boxers like Zab Judah etc all went on a downhill, but because of the timings Floyd gets full credit of beating them.
    The ghost beat berto to get that fight, and judah lost his fight before the mayweather fight...

      If one uses resume as the ONLY criteria, then yes it is problematic but who a fighter beats is a big part of his career. But, his skill set, his performances, his dominance, title wins etc all play a role.
