Floyd is easily the greatest of this generation(certainly greater than pacquiao) and easily a top 15 atg. There are plenty of example debunking him never fighting a level guys.

What is this bs? Yes Corrales was an above average fighter but at no point did anyone think he wold be THAT much better than May, which is why you have now stopped using the word "kill".

Oh and who thought Hatton was going to beat Mayweather?

You really are pathetic, with your ******ed profile picture.

Corrales was 33-0 with 30 KOs, he was 5-11 with a 73" reach. He was a monster and the best opponent possible under 135 lbs in boxing then.

Hatton had destroyed Tszyu and although Floyd was the favorite, plenty of people thought Hatton had a great shot.

He KOed both of those guys.

And both are B+ level fighters. Are you really saying Hatton/Corrales are the same quality fights as an ATG? Both are good wins, but both were limited fighters that never managed to win their biggest fights. Mayweather was obviously a class above (Class A)

They were the best available possible opponents at the time. Corrales was a P4P guy who was massive and a KO artist.

Hatton called Floyd out and had beaten Tszyu.

Here's the thing, if Mayweather hadn't fought Corrales, Hatton, or Baldomir for that matter he would have been accused of ducking. He fought the best opponent available in each of these cases.

Sorry but by the time Floyd fought Judah and Cotto both were past prime and washed up. Especially Cotto, Judah was a never was and can't be in the category of an A-class fighter.

Canelo was green as *** and no where near prime who got weight drained.

Hatton was also imo never an A-class fighter who also imo lost to collazo prior.

Corrales and Castillo are really his only prime A-class fighters he's beaten in his career.

Floyds career wins ae just littered with washed up past prime has-beens and never was type fighters or the not that good champion types.

You can literally discredit alot of fighters resume by just belittling their competition like floyd haters do. Truth is floyd beat alot of great fighters at the end of the day.

The man called out Prime Mosley, closer to prime Dela Hoya, prime Kostya, prime Frietas, Casamayor, Prime Cotto and even wanted a deal that included him fighting both Dela Hoya and Margarito as long as the money is right(in which he planned on using it to buy out his contract)!

Bob knew this and only said no Dela Hoya but fight Margarito for close to the same amount but with a contract extension of course!



Floyd said f that, got in contract with Al Haymon who likely helped buy out his contract and made the Dela Hoya fight and actually made much more than he would fighting Margarito as well as getting more exposure!

He fought who he could, he wanted closer to prime Pacquiao but the man didn't want to take random drug testing but then agreed to it when both guys were past their primes!

I used to despise Mayweather but all this nitpicking is isn't unique at all, you can do that to about any ATG great fighters resumes!

Whenever He had a close fight he rematched immediately!

Fought guys who had career best wins or were on a hot streak!

If he'd beat a prime A level fighter the next you'd say is" oh well he didn't beat a Prime A level fighter who was bigger than him" or say " he didn't beat two prime A level fighters"!

Guys like you are likely closet fans who put him on such a very high pedestal that you nitpick nearly everything and if he did more you'd still say it wasn't enough!

Shameful boxing fan you are

He never fought a Prime A-level fighter in his entire career, not because its the problem of others but it is his problem PERIOD,e he had numerous chances to get a Prime a-level fighter in his resume and yet he didnt and that would haunt his name forever. And also it is a myth that he called out moseley.
This was taken from a Mosley interview that explains who called out who and the timeline. And also the drug testing wasn't a problem, Pacquiao already agreed to his initial request after turning it down then Mayweather came up with another and another excuse that he has to leave top rank, join TMT, 40million dollar flat fee!

And I'm sure I put Floyd in the ATG rankings higher than most floyd fans are.

Mosley: Like I said, he’s really a liar. He likes to lie a lot. In 1999 there’s a film where he’s fighting in Michigan when he was fighting at 130 and I was fighting at 135, and I asked him, like when HBO does the prefight analysts talk to the fighters before they fight. I talked to him, and hopefully it’s recorded somewhere—I think it was on FX—I asked him, “Are you planning on coming up to lightweight to fight me?” And he said, “No,” He had no intention of coming to lightweight to fight me, he wanted t beat Carlos Monzon’s record. He didn’t want to come to lightweight. That’s when I jumped from lightweight to welterweight to fight Oscar De La Hoya. That was the first incident that he’s talking about, so he turned me down in 1999.

Now, the other time he’s talking about is when I fought three times—one, two, three, back-to-back-to-back—and they tried to rush me to fight him right away, like two or three months later. I said, give me a month, and we’ll do it like, I think it was in January—I said, “We’ll do it in January”. They wanted to do it in like November or December, and I said, “Give me a month and we’ll do it in January or February.” They didn’t want to do that. So they chose to fight Oscar De La Hoya. I said, “Go ahead and fight Oscar, and if you beat Oscar, then let’s get busy. Let’s do this.” He beat Oscar—he didn’t want to fight me.

He’s been turning me down. I hate when he continues to say, “Oh, he turned me down because of a tooth ache”. Yeah. I got head butted in that fight that and my tooth was loose that night. They asked me to fight Mayweather and I said, “Give me an extra month, and I’ll fight him.” He didn’t want to fight me, which was cool. He could go and fight Oscar because that’s more money. Okay. That’s cool, but after that fight if you win—fight me. He didn’t want to do that. He chose to retire or fight somebody else. I’m getting tired of that lie! They need to wipe that lie out of there. The reporters and stuff, they keep saying it, so that lie needs to be talked about.

Lol at corrales and hatton at being A-level. Since wyen does being repeatedly knocked out ans then not be able to do great things after the KO be A level. Loooooooool. And Canelo wasnt prime either

hatton was never the same after floyd, he became a fatass and then manny beat him after manny drained him. but i bet you hail that as one of mannys best wins.
