    I think you mean that SRL has more achievements than Floyd.. but,

    Here I am. :hi:

    But Im not talking titles, they mean little to me in comparison to wins over ATG fighters.

    Sugar Ray Leonard: Haggler, Hearns, Duran, Benitez > than the accomplishments of any of these other three.

    Head to Head:
    Jones
    Whitaker
    Leonard
    Mayweather

    Achievements:
    Leonard
    Whitaker
    Jones
    Mayweather

    Why are people putting Whitaker low on achievements? He should be right next to Leonard, barely behind him.

    Wtf how can you think Floyd has done more in achievements than any of the other 3 ?

    Floyds never unified the belts. Hasnt dominated a division since 130. Avoided the best competition out there.

    SRL's win over Benitez is better than anything Floyds done in his entire career. Lets not even go into SRL's other wins.

    4. Mayweather


    It will also always stay that way. There's nothin Floyd can do to get above anyone in that list. Not only isnt he as good as any of the other 3, there's also not the competition out there to prove it achievement wise either.

    Are you nuts? Even if Floyd KO's Hatton and beats Cotto I probably wouldn't put him ahead of Whitaker. I would put him ahead of Jones though, but not H2H.

    For those of you who rate Mayweather ahead of the ATG'S! He doesn't match the speed the power and explosiveness that the other three posess. Mayweather has never stood in there and totally dismantle somebody or has ever been in an all out slugfest like the ther three. Most of you will probably say that he did it to Gatti, please **** off, it was an over the hill slow ass Gatti that he fought. Any name that he ever beat was people that were past their primes. Like DLH, which he almost lost to.

    RJJ- In his first 50 fights he never really lost. Beat 46-0-0 James Toney and Hopkins. Conquered Light Heavy division. Won a Heavyweight belt.

    SRL- You already know what he did, it isn't worth explaining.

    Sweet Pea- UD over a tough champ, Greg Haugen, defended lightweight titles 10 times before moving up to welterweight. Won WBC welterweight, defending it 3 times, beating Buddy McGirt. Moved to light middle and won a title there then moved back down to welter until losing to a PRIME 1997 Oscar De La Hoya.

    Lol Ray Robinson isnt on the list. And if you rank those 3 in front of SRR, we got issues.

    Yeah that is a better point. Perhaps I should have put H2H. Instead of skill.
