    arguably no one.

    Castillo x 2 (P4P)
    Coralles (P4P)
    Zab Judah
    Undefeated Hatton (P4P)
    Oscar
    Shane (P4P)
    Marquez (P4P)
    Gatti

    Wow some record.

    For names it'll be a toss up between mayweather jnr, pacquaio, holyfield, jones jnr and hopkins who currently has the best resume as an active fighter. Considering three of these are past there best or nearly finished it becomes a matter of opinion on who is better between pac and may. By the end of 2010 or 2011 all these guys could possibly be retired

    Evander Holyfield has

    and maybe Roy Jones Jr.

    Probably Manny Pacquaio as well.

    Hernandez was a 3/1 favorite. You have to rememer that Hernandez was a lot bigger than Floyd, was the top fighter at 130, and had never lost at 130. You also have to remember that Mayweather was only 21, had been a pro for less than 2 years, had only 17 fights, and had fought a bunch of nobodies in his first 17 fights. Corrales was a slight favorite over Mayweather as well if I'm not mistaken.

    Holyfield and Pacquiao. I'd rate Mayweather over Hopkins now.

    jones, holyfield, and mosley are drug cheats, they shouldn't be included in this.

    hopkins resume stinks, feasting on lighter fighters and over-hyped average americans like pavlik and tarver. the only top fighters he fought at his own weight are jones, taylor, and calzaghe and hopkins lost a 4 of those fights - which is **** poor.

    its a straight comparison with manny as to who has the better resume imo. at the moment i would go with manny but if floyd was to beat manny then it would be floyd.
