    They both fought the best at lower weight classes but at 140 and above who ducked more people. I don't know and BoxingRec isnt accurate all the time. I am talking about from 140 and up.

    if you consider the fighters only then cotto alone does not make manny much more than floyd. if you consider the time at welter for each fighter then floyd does look weak.

    Pac fought the weakest of the four lightweight champs, then fought DLH which doesn't really count, but then KO'd Hatton at 140 who was the lineal champ and then Cotto who was top 3 at WW.

    Floyd beat the lineal Welterweight, but that was the only true Welter he fought and his Oscar fight also doesn't count as it was at Jnr Middle. Then the rest of the guys he's fought at 147 were 140 lbs really.

    Floyds early career and overall standard is very high, but his WW campaign doesn't look great in comparison to hi 147 campaign.

    This is why I am asking. He fought I think Mitchell who was his first WW fight. Then he fought Zab coming off of a loss whom was regarded my most to be a very high upgrade then he fought a champ. After that he went on to i believe fight a MW Oscar then Hatton. (who called him out, not that its an excuse).

    **** off.

    “Did we reject [a Foreman fight]? No. Did we accept it? No. We’re going to sit down tomorrow, Manny, myself and [attorney Jeng Gacal] and see if we can come up with an alternative opponent. We’ll communicate that to Bob and [trainer] Freddie [Roach] and see what their thoughts are on it.”

    So how does Gatti compare to David Diaz? They were both 140lb champs? Did Jr. fight the weakest 140lb champ?

    I counter your link with my own;

    Looks like Manny did reject it.
