    Holmes fought Spinks on his 12th year as a pro (twice), by the 19th year he had already fought Tyson and Holyfield, all 3 on their primes. So 4 prime ATG fights for Holmes in the 19th year, that number is 0 for Mayweather.

    Neither are ATG at all. Castillo made his career fighting no-names in Mexico, after he settled in the US in early 2000's, he had a poor career(20-13) nearly losing to all half decent opponents he faced. He was an A-grade at best at the top level, not an elite or ATG. Same goes for Corrales. You can't really put them in the league with Mosley, ODLH, Margarito, Pac etc

    yes, much much tougher resume than the 8x vacate title king.
    if pac had to go through floyds career, he'd be lucky to be 37/10 being ktfo 5/8 x

    maximum cherrypicking.
    optimal ducking.
    fighting past prime/ in a disadvantage opponent.
    calculated retirement and beauty sleep.
    Ignorant fanbase.

    Do people realize how rare it is to have a win over a prime ATG on ANYBODY's resume?

    Winning is rare, fighting is not - that's what he's criticized about.

    It's been done before by Floyd's contemporaries.

    Jones Jr. has one. Hopkins has one. Barrera has one. Morales and Pacquiao have two.

    Who does Pac have? In their PRIME.... that means their peak. A fighter at the peak of their prowess.

    And the fact that Jones, Hopkins (against a former welterweight), and MAB have ONE in their entire careers shows how rare it is.
