    Mosley was 40 and badly shot
    Oscar was shot and its debateable if Floyd even won that
    he illegally outweight marquez too.

    I'm trying to think of an ATG Floyd actually beat. I can't think of one.

    If Mosley was just a few years younger he would have buried Floid in that 2nd round. But in your 30's being 5 or 6 years older than your opponent is a lot. Every year that goes buy you deteriorate.

    I give this thread 2 pages tops until the Floyd****s come in and argue that MAB was shot.

    Does Rocky Marciano? Does Oscar De la Hoya? Aaron Pryor? Does Wlad? Does Lennox? No one would dispute that these men are ATG but lack other "prime" ATG's on their resume.

    to be an ATG you don't have to have beaten an ATG in their prime....

    MARQUEZ is an ATG and was p4p no. 2 at the time Floyd spanked him.

    stop sucking Barrera's *****... because he was approaching his steep decline, Poochiao caught him at the perfect time....

    Arguable Manny's still in his prime P4P no. 2 as we speak.... no. 2 ranked WW in the world....

    so..... he's about to beat an ATG in his prime....

    its going to be pacquiao, why do you think he's swimming, bought a 25k mouth guard, has two conditioning coaches, $1,000 meals, 10 sparring partners, and chopping wood.

    Mayweather's resume = impeccable

    Poochiao has a great CV, but very very very notable losses....

    and extremely controversial wins over one of Floyd's tune-up opponents.
