    He didn't clearly whoop an old Oscar, not sure how he beats a prime Oscar.

      lets ignore oscar picked the weight, ring size and gloves.. and still lost. at 147 floyd would smoke him. and how old was he truly coming off a KO victory.

        Genaro Hernandez
        Julio Cesar Chavez
        Pernell Whitaker
        Ike Quartey
        Felix Trinidad
        Shane Mosley
        Fernando Vargas
        Bernard Hopkins
        Floyd Mayweather Jr
        Manny Pacquiao

        You can't name one prime fighter Floyd beat, yet his resume Is better than Oscar's
        So we're going to throw in losses as part of his accomplishments. Funny guy.

          So It's about wins and losses, not who you actually fought In their prime. Guess Floyd's record of 50-0 memorizes you.

            No, I don't add losses to a list of accomplishments. I don't know about your resume, but mine doesn't include jobs that I applied for but didn't.

              It's more about who you fought and when you fought them. Having a regular job and boxing are two different things. Having a record without a loss due to not fighting prime fighters, Is not a bigger accomplishment than taking a risk and fighting other prime fighters and losing.

                We were discussing resume (go back and look). Why would I add losses to a resume? Again, does your resume include jobs you applied for but didn't get?

                  Yes we are discussing resume. Who fought the bigger names In their prime?

                  Would you feel better about yourself beating up a 50 year old or fighting a 30 year old, taking a loss, but giving a good fight?

                    So when discussing resume, I don't regard a loss as an accomplishment.

                      I guess we will disagree on who has the better resume than. Their Is only one fighter when mentioning Floyd and Oscar who was willing to take risks and fight other prime fighters.
