You are not answering my question. P4P rankings doesn't mean crap when you have the likes Andrien Broner reaching P4P no.5.
Who did Floyd beat that was an A-level fighter, in his prime and at his best weight without an asterisk? A completely even playing field?
We all the name of the guy that had beat 3 of them.Comment

larry doesnt realize that its much easier to prolong your career by cherry picking easy fights. thats kind of the whole reason to do it and why its so despised. he cherry picked title fights against one win wonders like baldomir, ortiz, etc...or old guys that had name cache but were well past it like mosley, hoya, pac etcc...
i can name a ton of guys with better resumes but you and I have different defititions of what a resume is. you think it means winning title fights and i think it means beating elite fighters. they are 2 different things and floyd is lacking in the beating elite fighters category. his accomplishments are a mix between broner and ottke. longevity and weight climbing
if you think baldomir, ortiz, guerrero, and old past it fighters qualify as elite then you simply have different standards than me. but i dont think you think they are elite thats why you always use the look how many title fights or look how many p4p fighters he beat. yeah guys like hatton moving up, marquez moving up, 40 year old mosley was p4p after looking like a-ss for years cause he won 1 fight???
not that these guys were bad fighters but pac beating marquez at 130 is worth 10 times more than when floyd beat marquez. marg beating prime cotto is worth 10 times more than floyd beating him 5 years later. etc...for example if someone beat floyd now would you mark it down as a great win? i wouldnt because floyd is past it and old and i already thought he lost several fights in his career. whoever beat floyd now would not be as good as when castillo did it.Comment

None of which were A-level fighters. At 2007-2009 Mayweather had Paul Williams, Miguel Cotto, Margarito, Manny Pacquiao at welterweight, Sergio Martinez at 154 that could fill up his lack of A-level fighter Prime. But then he fought a lightweight at a catchweight, of all the people that he could fight he picked a lightweight that never fought above 135 (And dont give an excuse that Marquez was P4P.2 he was still a blown up lightweight.)so you come into my thread..cant answer the question and try to redirect it??

Mayweather's resume at 147 is exaggerated: Ancient Mosley, Ancient KO'ed Pacquiao, a quitter in Ortiz, a B-level fat Maidana, and Roobert Guerrero that was beaten by a tomato can.
Just accept it man, Mayweather's resume isn't that good.Comment

Sure.
Most would say Floyd lost the first fight.Castillo-lineal champ
Judah was prime coming off a loss to Tata?Judah-IBF champ
Great so Devon Alexander and Amir Khan share something in common with TBE. They all beat Prime Maidana.Maidana-WBA champ
Floyd beat Hatton at 147. Hatton was 1-2 at 147 with 2 KO losses. He almost got stopped by Collazo before Floyd even faced him. Should I post the Collazo-Hatton video?Hatton-p4p
The same Ortiz that was dropped like 3 times and quit against Maidana? The same Ortiz that fought Peterson to a draw? The same Ortiz that was dropped 2-3 times by Berto? The same Ortiz that lost his next two fights to Luis Collazo and Josesito Lopez right after Floyd? This is the Ortiz you're proud of?Ortiz-WBA champ
According to Floyd, Cotto was greatly out of his prime when he fought Pac, so I can only imagine how far removed he was when he fought Floyd.right outside of prime
Cotto-wba 154 champ
This is probably one of Floyd's best wins along with Corrales.Canelo-wbc/wba/ring champ-p4pLast edited by Chollo Vista; 07-22-2017, 10:15 PM.Comment

he had the chance to make it great too thats why it so frustrating but he just wouldnt step up. he had prime marg, cotto, and pac but made up excuses over and over. and it worked cause he still has delusional fanboys. the way larry fawns over him is the way someone would fawn over floyd if he had beaten those guys but he still does it even without the resume! thats why i respect ward more than floyd. ward cheats, gets gifts, and rigs tournaments in his favor but at least he stepped into the ring with prime uys! floyd does all that as well but agaisnt past it opponents!None of which were A-level fighters.
