Alright Mayweather Fanboys... How does this equate to the greatest 130 of all time?

3 years, 8 defenses, a few non title fights. Much more than Pac. In fact those numbers are fairly similar to Floyds...

 

So how should those two wins be classed as??......I say the Corrales win was great given the one sided ass whooping it was on Floyd's part and same for the Hernandez win, the Chavez win is a "very good" win in my opinion...

 

I agree. I would class Hernandez and Chavez both as very good wins. Chavez being a slightly better win.

Fortaleza is great and you could class Hernandez same the same. "Very good" at gbe least.

****ing new age Floyd haters try to discredit and trash good fighters just to bad mouth Floyd and they never even seen those fights.

 

He was over 126 and under 130 for a good number of his fights, with opponents in the same weight category (or above). And his resume at the weight is as good as pretty much any fighter who landed in that weight category, Mayweather included.

That said, it wasn't an established weight class at the time, hence the emoticon, because he was never "officially"D) a junior lightweight.

 

Yeah, and it's not like his over Famaso, Manfredy, or Vargas were bad or anything. About the only fights that he had at the weight that were questionable were Gerneo, Rios, and Juuko...And all three of those fighters happened to be rated in the Top 10 at the time.

Top to bottom, it's a pretty good run at the weight. The drop-off in terms of quality isn't nearly as precipitous as some other 130lb champions.

 

He was never officially a junior lightweight because he was a jazz musician, Drew. He played the trumpet for ****s sake. atsch

 

I don't see anyone Armstrong beat at 127-130 who is noticeably better than Mayweather did.

 

:rofl

 

Benny Bass, Baby Arizmendi, Chalky Wright and maybe Juan Zaurita are all probably better names to have on a resume than Chico or Chicanito. Belloise was a good scalp to take, too.

 

Alexis Arguello has the best record at 130.

 

Nelson had a good run at 130, some decent wins.

Pacquiao has better wins than Floyd at 130.

Chavez was better, I think, just didn't stay long enough at the weight.

It's close, it could be Floyd I suppose, but I prefer Arguello.

 

Escalera >>>>>>> anyone on Floyd's 130lbs resume.

 

Arguello, Floyd and Nelson all seem to be mentioned a lot more often than Chavez.

 

I'd pay a lot to see PBF vs Nelson

 

He's not

Arguello and Nelson have a real claim
