    Just came to my mind. I see nobody that could compete with him and you start looking at resume and all time fighters there were at 130, Mayweather got to be up there. I have him #1. now some will say he never unfied but many fighters ducked him. like Casamayor and Frietas who had titles and Corrlaes did have one but got stripped before his huge fight with Mayweather. So all Mayweather did was fight every top ranked fighter he could've.

    its not like these days where some fighters just win then have a soft touch for first title defense. Mayweather went straight to Manfredy #1 Ranked, then Carlos Rios #2 ranked, then top 5 guys in juuko and Genera. vargas top 10 after that. August wasnt really ranked but well known and hometown fight (which was awesome) Corrales that should've been for WBC/IBF and put on a classic performance, then #3 Hernandez and finished with #1 jesus Chavez (man what a war!!!)

    10-0 7KO's Defened lineal title 9 times, and only fought 1 fighter out the top 10 in Augusts.

    What do you guys think? I think hes best SFW ever! i would have Arguello 2nd if you wanted to know :bbb:bbb

    On ability, he's the best. Who beats him at 130? When I say beat him, they would have to win at least 6 out of 10 fights. Who would win the majority of fights against Mayweather at 130? That's a savage ask.

    Depending on the ref, I would like Sadldler's chances against Mayweather.

    But it didn't happen, and according to resumes at SFW, Morales clearly has the better accolades in that division.

    I think Floyd would have dominated Pacquiao at 130.

    Julio Cesar Chavez > Floyd Mayweather at 130lbs if they were to face off.
    Manny Pacquiao (thus prime, not a one-handed washed up fighter) at 130lbs would have been fearless. He would have been hit with big shots but returned with many bigger shots of his own.

    In terms of legacy, Floyd's is the second greatest after Alexis Arguello.
