Most people had Tito as #1 in 2000. It went: RJJ 97-2000 Tito 00-01 Mosley 01-02 Hopkins 02-04 Mayweather 04-07
For all of his great skills, Floyd is probably the most reluctant champion of all time. I hope he does retire because he is turning the boxing world into a parlor full of gossiping ladies. Maybe it is good strategy to sell tickets, but damn, he's had his eye on dlh for so long and doesn't seem to want to fight anyone else, ever. After every fight he brings up DLH in interview since Baldomir. Bring up Cotto and he shakes his head. He said after Ricky he was not interested in chasing the welterweights around and brought up guess who!
he was, before he fought Hopkins: Whitaker DLH Reid Vargas Joppy over 3 weight classes. While Roy was fighting the Halls and Harmons of the world.

hi dawg,didnt notice you with the new avatar. if floyd could make millions fighting ronald mcdonald and then colonel sanders,hes entitled to do it,and he probably would; but i wish he'd shut the fuk up about being the best.fight all the business,exhibition,sparring sessions you like and make tons of money,but dont try and tell me youre the best ever without having to prove it because its a 'bad business decision'.
