    I don't have Manny in the top10 right now.

    Its crazy how every Floyd thread becomes about Pacquiao

    Give me a top 30 option and i shall check that box. But to go from top 3 to top 10 to not in the top 50 is quite a slide.

    Mosley, Pac then Pavlik then i say top 10. I think Floyd could have a decent chance vs Pavlik, granted he won't be Favorite.

    hate it or not but i have Pernell in my top 5. Old time fighters are usually overrated a little on rankings imo. Srl will probably crack top 3 in 20-30yrs also on most peoples lists.

    Well, lets look at his resume.

    86-8 Amateur Record
    1996 Olympic Bronze Medalist

    43-0 Professional record
    Titles at: 130, 135, 140, 147, 154
    Lineal Titles at 130, 135, 147, and arguably 154
    Wins Over:
    Gernaro Hernandez(HOF)
    Shane Mosley(HOF)
    Oscar De La Hoya(HOF?)
    Manny Pacquiao(HOF)
    Ricky Hatton(HOF?)
    Diego Corrales
    Juan Manuel Marquez
    Jose Luis Castillo
    Arturo Gatti
    Andre Berto
    Jesus Chavez
    Angel Manfredy
    Phillip N'dou
    Demarcus Corley
    Carlos Baldomir
    Zab Judah
    Victoriano Sosa

    If this list doesn't earn top 20 consideration then nothing would earn it.

    Low teens. Add Paul Williams and another belt at 154, low to mid teens.

    Manny's rise in the ATG list had much to do with his move up in weight and beating some of the best dominantly. Floyd at the moment is no where near Manny on the ATG list. If he were to beat Shane and Manny and Berto he'd jump up a lot....but no one can do anything about Floyd's present resume. While very good it shy of greatness....beating Shane, Manny and Berto would bring his resume to an entirely new level. Besides PAC is not even breaking the top 10 atg at the moment.

    thats like a Joe louis bum of the month club, and he wont fight Manny , even though I think he wins , the man just cannot accept that there are other fighters on his level.

    Duran started at lightweight and he fought for the middleweight championship, not just any middleweight but hagler's linear championship.

    PBF has to take more risks if he really wants to be compared to those guys.
