    But morales beat barera 2x and Pacquaio beat MAB 2x and Morales beat Pacquaio and Raheem beat Morales... So Raheem is an ATG too acoording to your logic..:patsch

    Also Freitas beat Casamayor and beat ATG Raheem and Lost to chico beat beat casamayor who lost to Castillo who got knocked out by corrales, so Honestly Corrales is an ATG win after all...:deal you can't refute this to suit your agenda..

    He has faced ATGS, but they weren't prime. His closest was Hernandez and De La Hoya. Hernandez was at the end of his career and had already been humiliated by a young LW oscar. And Oscar was about 6-7 years past his prime when he faced Floyd, and noticeably slower and lost his pop. And I would consider Mosley at ATG also, but was completely shot by the time Floyd faced him.

    Being undefeated is great but just as important to that resume is WHO you beat and Floyd hasn't really beaten anyone that stands out, which is amazing in itself when you consider he's fought 47 TIMES! How in the world is their not a handful of ELITE/PRIME fighters on there. I will give him Corrales and Castillo though, but they aren't ATGs

    So if Mayweather has no ATG wins, is a fraud and a cherry picker, then Pacquiao deserves no credit for winning this fight?

    Is Pacquiao cherry picking Floyd, by your logic?

    How many prime ATGs were in PBF's weightclass at the same time he was in it? Haters won't answer that question. That's not his fault.

    This.

    Canelo was drained, Hatton was at a weight above his best, DLH was past it, Pac happened after he'd already been kod by Marquez and 5 yrs too late, JMM was disgustingly cheated on the scales, Mosley was old.

    49-0 and not a single prime name, shocking for the alleged TBE.

    Another fool still bitter about the events on May 2nd 2015.:lol: Hatton declined to fight PBF at 140 when both were there but I like how you left that out. He said he had no problems fighting PBF at 147 and made no excuses after he got that work.

    PBF beats any version of JMM horrible styles match up for him weight isn't a factor. JMM was willing to fight Pac 4 times but wanted no parts of PBF despite a career high pay day he would have gotten and a shot at redemption because he knew PBF was a bad match up for him.

    The same Oscar you Pac****s say is one of his best wins. Oscar was not prime but he wasn't shot either. No to mention PBF fought Oscar on his terms at a weight he had never fought at before and still won going away.


    The same Mosley who KTFO the so called most feared man in boxing in Margo. The same Mosley that Pac's team mainly Roach said you're too good we don't want the fight PBF damn near shut out.

    See this is the problem with you *****'s straight into little girl ***** mode the minute someone says anything that you seem defamatory to your charmless idol.

    Firstly I certainly am not a Pack**** nor a ***** like yourself, I am a fan of both on the same level in the way that I can take them or leave them.

    Let's lower the standard, how about HoFers in their prime?

    I can only think of Corrales and Castillo who were at their optimum weight but are they HOF worthy?
