    Most of those fights are. Pac/MAB being the only possible exception.

    Lol ok dude. The guy who many people think beat PAC 4 times gets schooled by mayweather but it's somehow not a good win in your eyes. To everyone else it was a highly impressive win

    The first was even at 126 pounds.

    What is the most important thing in boxing? It's size.

    Manfredy is about as good as anyone on 3G's resume! Better than Lemieux! Lemieux was touted as G Mans best opponent to date. Was that all hype or what? Anyway, AM was a decent fighter, can't take anything away from that dude.

    Mayweather was also a 130 pound fighter who moved up so what's the difference?

    The difference is JMM is not a natural WW... Anyone who thinks otherwise DKSAB..

    Floyd completely outboxed him. Size had little to do with it

    Lol so would you guys be saying this if prime PAC moved up to fight Floyd and Floyd dismantles him in the same fashion?

    Marco Huck outboxes Floyd too, with ease.

    Size had everything to do with it.... Floyd was huge compared to JMM.. He was Outsized in every dept... Reach, Weight, Height, Skills! It was a f****!:deal

    As far as visually impressive and dominant performance over a top opponent I'd put it up there but, just a top win in general. I'd put one of Mayweather's win's over Castillo up for the 00's Mayweather is this era's goat and Castillo was one of if not the best LW in recent history.

    Getting back the OP's point. I jumped the gun a little. Sure there were better wins of the 2000's. Not too many though.

    But when taking into account performances which combines how dominant the victory was and the quality of opponent very few from that decade can top it.
