    Having Floyd outside the Top 100 is ridiculous by any historian or experts criteria. His resume isn't THAT bad, for Christ sake.

    Where would you guys put Mayweather if he beats Pac, Mosley, moves up to middleweight and gets the title from Pavlik?

    I would say top 10

    Ok :good

    I'm shocked that you have Pac at 15 and Oscar at 14 but Floyd is no where to be seen but you are absolutely entitled to your own opinion


    Oh ****, my bad.....you said they weren't in order

    Fighters like Ross, Canzoneri, McLarnin, Walker, Gavilan, Harada, Napoles, Spinks, Monzon, etc. are LOCKS over Mayweather too. Most of them are clearly above Pac too for that matter.

    ill say Manny is slightly above Floyd as of right now...Floyd is missing the "big career defining fight"..MOSLEY AND PACQUIAO WINS COULD JUMP HIM UP VERY MUCH THOUGH AS THOSE 2 WINS COULD PROVE ALOT OF THE DOUBTS AROUND HIS LEGACY WRONG

    :lol: That's the best question. This is why ALL polls must be public, so we can identify the ******ed.

    I picked 31-40. He's somewhere around the range of where I would put Barrera and Morales, and only slightly ahead of them at best. Both Barrera and Morales have had great superfights, and have fought much more. Barrera's record is 65W-7L (72 total). Morales' record is 48W-6L (54 total). Whereas FMJ's record is 40W-0L (40 total).

    he forgot about beating the resurrection of Willie Pep. Then it is definite.
