    Pacquaio and Mosley were top 2 P4P when he whipped both of them. Guess top 2 isn't that good though.

    Do people want to start talking about SRL and SRR's resumes? They've got a bunch of slightly out of it way out of prime guys too. You know why? Fighters don't spend but a few years in their primes and making big fights is hard.
    Exactly.

    Sugar Ray Leonard has guys on his resume close to his prime that Floyd would be crucified for fighting even at 38 or 40 or whatever.

      So who would be an A level in your eyes then?

        You might need to create those A-level fighters first.

            First of all, pacquiao doesnt have a better resume than floyd and Pacquiao isn't considered the greater fighter by anyone who is objective....losses(especially the ko's) to bums hurt him in a major way. Corrales
            Canelo
            Castillo
            Hatton

            All A level prime fighters....

              The likes of Moseley, Pacquiao, Cotto, they were above B-level fighters and their resume and accomplishment reflected that, the only one problem is that they were passed their Primes.

              Corrales was prime, but he was B-level, he got repeatedly knocked out by the likes of Casamayor, and did not do much in his career other than just defending straps and pick up straps, nothing really significant exept for the great fights he gave against Castillo.

              It was the same for Hatton, and that was at welterweight and he wasn't A-level himself because he didn't have a good resume, and didn't do much for his KO loss and especially he was already beaten by Collazo but got a gift.

              For Sergey Kovalev is mostly likely will not be a HoF but he was head and shoulders above everyone he meet, he beat good fighters to get on top and he beat them in a dominating fashion, till he met Andre Ward, Ward is already an established A-level fighter and Kovalev showed that they were at the same level, both contraversial fights but Dre got Kov's name in his resume so Dre has a prime A-level fighter in his resume. It is just not the same for Corrales whom he did not show that he was beyond Castillo and Casamayor, or Clottey.

                  So all the guys that refused to fight him in their prime are A level but the guys that were undefeated be did fight him were b level.

                  That's gerrymandering of the highest level dude.

                      A lot of these guys are bandwagon jumpers, they dont really know shit about boxing. Trying to teach this people takes a lot of time and patience.

                      You have to be slow like "You remember when Mosley had a toothache?" or "You remember when Arum said he had to fold his cards in regards to Mayweather signing a new contract to fight De la Hoya and Margarito?"

                      I just let it slide if i was you, i let them write their ignorant post, read and just laugh at their lack of knowledge/history of the sport they claim they love.
