    he is in the top 100, but top 50? Hard to give him that. His resume is not filled with greats who were prime and hungry. A win over Pacman would give him a big jump.

    His resume, man :-(.

    I don't know how anyone can justify having Pacquiao lower than him. Pacquiao has a knock-out win over prime Marco Antonio Barerra. That win alone is better than anything Mayweather has done.

    Floyd wont even crack top 50. *****s ranking floyd to top 30 or 20 based only on his skills.

    pac records >>> floyd records

    And even that was tainted Corrales was on his way to prison and was so messed up mentally he had no buisness in the ring, and he wanted no part of a fucused destructive Diego once he was out of prison after the Frietes destruction.....im sorry he is no higher than mid 30's....and he wont crack my top 30....

    Floyd could have been a lot higher if he faced and beaten Williams, Margarito, Prime Pac, Prime Cotto. i.e styles that are harder to beat for him. You don't get over-glorified rankings for beating guys who you have a tremendous stylistic advantage over.
    But he didn't fight any of those guys, and hes been exposed having drew against Maidana.
