    So. I know a couple of undefeated taxi drivers too. Is Floyd at 46-0 and Porter at 25-0 the same as Martin the Taxi Driver at 10-0 or Hank the Janitor at 12-0? NOPE

    W/L ratio doesn't matter. It's about who you fight. And he hasn't fought anyone who can give him trouble. I like One Time. And I know for a fact he's the future. He's just not right now.

    :patsch

    Thats why the list differentiates them by quality, hence Thurman on top with the big names & Brook in the bottom on his own :think

    What's Thurman's best win? And what's Brook's best win?

    Let's say Karass.

    Brook's best win is Senchenko.

    I mean come on man.

    if they fought in december. Thurman would be frustrated and outclassed. He's a boxer puncher and wouldn't swarm Floyd like Maidana did.

    THurman's not ready for Floyd. And if Floyd beat him, it wouldnt be a big deal.

    Floyd goes in as a 9-1 favorite against Keith Right now.

    Thurman KO any Welterweight today, Floyd is not even imagining himself in the ring with Thurman...I rather see Floyd retire 50-0-0-0, Thurman will establish his legacy without having to KTFO 38yo Floyd

    Thurman body shots will not go away, Floyd is old and had a do or die affair with Castillo/Maidana who are not as hard hitting and fast footed as Thurman.

    Thurman is a big hard hitter with very quick feet, unfair advantage vs aging smaller Floyd

    It will never happen, don't even think about this fight :nono

    hank the janitor vs martin the taxi driver would be a heck of a scrap for as long as it lasted....i think either easily outclasses a prime margarito though
