    Ricky Hatton
    Miguel Cotto
    Lehlo Ledwaba

    I can go on and on. What's Floyds best win? A weight drained Canelo or a recently KO'ed Pacquiao?

      Let's see about that list of yours....for a FOTD (Fighter Of THIS Decade) candidate !!!!!

      MAB - Not This Decade, not a ww and far from prime
      Erik - NTD, not a ww and far from prime
      Prime JMM is a good name but Pac didn't win any of the fights conclusively. Not a good name for a FOTD award.
      Prime Bradley - was given no chance at winning. Every knew by all rights him should have lost all 3.
      Prime Thurman - who only had one fight in 2 years prior to fighting Pac.
      Cotto - NTD
      Hatton - NTD
      Ledwaba - NTD

      May beat Pac, Cotto, Nelo, JMM, Hatton....so there's that.

            Barrera was 28 years old coming off from the wins of Erik Morales, Prince Naseem Hamed, Kevin Kelley, Johnny Tapia. And then in his next fight after Pacquiao, he TKO's Paulie Ayala and beats Morales again, and was a top P4P fighter till he had consecutive losses from Pac and JMM at 2007.

            But hey, Barrera is shot doe

                Why are you lying? You claimed Barrera is shot, which everything hinges on his performance after the Pacquiao fight and where he was going into the first Pacquiao fight, and you got proving wrong.

                So why are you lying now?

                    The media loves Pac.
                    He might just get it .

                      I don't know if that's deserved

                      Especially since Bradley wasn't even a legit 147 guy

                      Bradley was a career 140 guy

                      I don't even remember him beating a single real 147 guy
                      bradley was ranked top 3 welterweight by many at the time. manny was the #1 in 2016, and #2 was a toss up between kell brook and bradley. ring magazine had kell brook #2 and tbrb had bradley #2. all kell brook had was barely a win against porter (who hadn't done much either). bradley had bigger wins against marquez (was top 3 p4p at the time and top welterweight after KO'ing pac), undefeated vargas who soon after his loss to bradley won a world title by KO'ing a top ten ranked welterweight, should have a win against top ten ranked chaves, etc. etc. bradley rightfully was ranked #2 by tbrb.

                      again, tbrb is the most legit when it comes to their rankings since they have over 50 well respected boxing journalists and historians deciding the rankings. it's not 1 or 2 guys like at ring magazine.
