    He draws. But his big records were DLH and Hatton. And the MOFO talks like everybody bought it to see him. Plus, he draws because HBO has made him an american idol. Like I say: If Floyd wasn't american we wouldn't even be talking about him today.

    When you consider - in the opinion of many - that Floyd lost to Castillo and was lucky to get the "W" against DLH, and that Mosley is better than anyone on Floyd's list, then, no, Floyd doesn't win this at all.

    Lucky to get the win against DLH? :lol:


    And even if you think he lost to Castillo, he beat him in the rematch.

    Floyd wins.

    It was a SPLIT decision and a lot had DLH winning.

    No they didn't. But if you want to go that route. Like 9 out of 10 writers had Mayweather beating Castillo in their first fight.

    By a lot, I mean a significant minority. That is the truth, whereas 9 out of 10 writers having PBF over JLC in the first fight is simply untrue.

    Also, bear in mind, Mayweather has not fought a world-class fighter in their prime for 7 years! Not since he went 1-1 with Castillo in 2002. The one exception would be the undefeated Hatton whose credentials at top level are questionable. And PBF made him fight at 147, out of his comfort zone. Mayweather's record for the last 7 years - and that's a big chunk of a fighter's career - is not worthy of the Hall Of Fame and not deserving of a current top 5 pound for pound spot. His credentials at welterweight are virtually non-existent.
