    He beat Manny Pacquiao easily and gave him a boxing lesson. Get your eyes checked please.

Manny Pacquiao was silent in this time period. No one was calling out Floyd. Floyd himself wanted BOTH Oscar De La Hoya and Shane Mosley, but the latter moved up to WW to fight De La Hoya and they didn't come down to WW like they said they would. It was only when Floyd, whose ridicilously small for a WW, started experiencing hand problems and aged when Cotto and Mosley and Pacquiao became so brave
      this one is funny. 1998-2007? do you know their weight difference that time, don't you?

          That was Floyds last fight, I can admit he could have fought a better opponent, but many great fighters fight lower opposition in their final fights.
          Many past great fighters fought lower opposition in their final fight usually after they took a career ending beatdown.

          That wasn't the case with Floyd.

          When you are the self proclaimed best ever, I am looking to see if you take your foot off the gas pedal.

            Morales and Barrera were past it when Manny fought them. Both already coming of wars and losses to other fighters

              Bradley 3x, Barrera 2x, Morales 3x, JMM 4x, Cotto, Margarito, Hatton, Broner, Thurman.

              I wouldn't rank Margarito or Hatton as ATG's or A-level, but he absolutely destroyed them. Floyd ducked Margarito, prime Cotto, Thurman, Bradley among others.

                ledwaba, marquez, david diaz, hatton, cotto, clottey, bradley, rios, algieri, vargas, broner and thruman. all those guys were in their prime, just because some of them loss 1 fight before fighting pac, doesnt mean they are not prime anymore.

                  lol but for the casual fans a loss means not prime anymore.. i guess if that's their basis then i can say floyd is always in his prime.. i wonder how come he still ducked fighters back then?
