    Down on the list but above Berto. That's for sure.

    Floyd beats Klitcshko Brothers 2 on 1handicap match and this boxing_re**** still wouldn't give credit.

    Above all but Cotto, Canelo and Pacquiao.

    Maidana & Ortiz Khan got to well before Floyd.

    He beats Berto up in sparring

    Guerrero? Khan probably would school him

    explain? unless you misunderstood me which I think you did.


    2011 onwards: Ortiz, Guerrero, Maidana & Berto

    Khan beats Berto
    Beat Maidana
    Made Ortiz quit in ams
    Would school Guerrero

    Isn't better than: Canelo, Pac, Cotto - Although stylistically I think he'd do better than drainelo against Floyd.

    Not very high at all.

    Only thing that would maybe raise it a few spots is the fact that Floyd is 38 years old.

    Would be on the same general level of Ortiz, Guerrero, and Maidana. Below the Mosley/Hatton/Marquez WW performances.

    Berto is Floyds' worst opponent since 2005 and clearly so. One whole decade since Sharmba Mitchell squared up with him.

    Khan wouldn't quite be worth pointing that out for and would have been slightly more relevant than Ortiz and Guerrero.

    As a nobody, Khan isn't even a top 5 WW. I don't know why we are even talking about this fight.

    I think he'd be high enough above marquez coming up in weight ortiz gurrero maidana a lot of them early career fights, hatton wasnt a special welterweight either so i think there similar level wins.

    It would be rated like the Ortiz and Guerrero fights were.
