    Marquez was not past his prime against Floyd and he is an ATG, but it is quite embarrassing that a blown-up lightweight is the only name we can dig up.

    Who were the ATGs in their prime Floyd should have fought? Pac is obviously one, but who else? Tszyu?

    Well, Floyd could have fought Tszyu instead of Corley or Bruseles, but I agree it does not make much difference.

    I think a more valid point against floyd is that he avoided not prime ATGs, but a number of really outstanding competitors in the weight classes he crossed in their prime (Cotto, Williams, Margarito, Clottey are the obvious examples). He also could have fought Mosley years earlier, not to mention of course Pacquiao.

    cotto fought mosely while Mayweather fought hatton... cotto then signed to fight gomez as a tuneup to an already signed fight with cheato in july... floyd was considering a rematch with oscar for sept... cotto lost and rest is history there was never any negotiations to match floyd vs cotto @147 EVER!! arum would confirm this..

    in 2007, pwill was a unknown fighting cheato for the wbo strap in carson ca. in 2007, floyd was already retired from boxing...Pwill went on to lose to quintana.... he moved up in weight and struugled against martinez and suffered a ko loss in the process.. Not a realistic fight for floyd.

    Cheato is a bonafied cheater who got exposed by a "old" mosely.. no point discussing this.

    Clottey was a fighter who had loss to baldomir, loss to cheato, came up short against cotto, pulled his punches against Pacquaio, beat a blown up Corrales and hes supposed to get a fight at the no.1 fighter Floyd at 147??? cmon man learn your boxing...judah doesnt count either....:deal

    AS for Pacquaio he refused to take a blood test in 2009 and 2010, freddy roach is on video stating this....so plz dont start this **** and say pac is not in his prime to discredit floyd when he beats him...:good:good

    Don't twist the facts.

    After cotto beat mosley and floyd beat hatton, floyd's camp made an excuse that cotto is not a draw and retired. This is when the WW waxing hot. Sowee!

    Are you denying that floyd's camp stated that cotto was not a draw? Are you denying that floyd retired after cotto beat mosley? Sowee

    He was from puerto rico blah blah blah... truth is floyd was considering a de la hoya rematch and Cotto was already signed to fight gomez on a double header that featured Cheato vs cintron 2, why do you think that was?? oh, maybe because cotto and cheato were on a collision course for a july ppv, that was already signed... oh thats right, you DKSAB:deal SOWWEY
