    I agree that Hearns stops him.

    But I don't think there's any doubt that Floyd is an ATG, H2H or any other way you choose to define it.

    You act like Oskee wasn't awesome in his prime. :ohno Oskee would give a lot of the old timers absolute fits with his speed power and jab alone. Mayweather takes a bit to find his rhythm, that's just how his ring mentality works but that doesn't mean he is in there struggling with these guys. Maidana outweighed him by what, 15 pounds? Maidana would give a lot of the old 147 guys trouble with a 15 pound weight advantage, too.

    At Superfeatherweight I think he's top 5 of all time, maybe higher.

    LW, SLW, WW..................I think it gets a bit more difficult to place him at that absolute highest. Who I recognize at GOATS are pretty much set in stone. He's up there at all 3 though but at SFW it's beyond a shadow of a doubt IMO.

    If you think Maidana gives Leonard, Hearns, Duran a tough fight, then I can't take you seriously at all.

    Floyd does not have any performance whatsoever above 140 that makes me think he could beat the top 5 all time welterweights. He just doesn't.
