    Hatton was on top at 140, thats why Fraud fought him at 147.

    Chico Corrales was Undefeated when he faces Floyd.

    Hatton was Undefeated when he fought him too.

    Even Castillo was on his game.

    Floyd was just better then them all.

    True at 140 it would have been a closer fight. But after watching that display after round 6 I would have said even though it pains me floyd UD.

    Yeah, but Chico was going through a lot of legal trouble. Hatton is a naturally smaller fighter than Fraud Gayweather. And Castillo won those fights.

    Floyd Mayweather really sucks as a boxer. Ignore his brilliant performances, they're all smoke and mirrors. Mayweather doesn't belong in the top 10 P4P list. Joe Calzaghe, Ricky Hatton, Wladimir Klitschko and Mike Tyson are the greatest boxers ever. And of course, Floyd's nightmare, Antonio Margarito.

    Pretty much agree with the names. Zab wasnt going to get any better
    or worse and its Chico's fault if he was weight drained. Also, Corley was
    at his best IMO when Mayweather broke him down.

    Hernandez (linear champion)
    Corrales (p4pounder, undefeated)
    Castillo (beat Johnston twice)
    Gatti (#1 at 140, with new trainer he had two dominating title defenses)
    Baldomir (well, he was at the top of his game, welter undisputed champ)
    Ndou (he would never contend again after this beat down)

    arguably- chavez, hernandez

    Gatti was not at the top of his game, he was near done and had been in wars.

    You could say Baldomir yeah, but man the top of Baldo's game is ****.

    Corrales was weight drained ergo not at his peak.

    Gatti at no other point in his career had looked as good as he had before the mayweather fight. He was #1 in the division (behind champ Tszyu), transformed himself into a boxer/puncher under McGirt, won the WBC title and had two DOMINATING kayo defense wins against good opposition. He was dominating guys and not taking a ton of flack in return.

    Baldomir- hey, i was just answering the question.

    Corrales- what fighter ISNT weight drained? except fat ass Toney? Weight draining is part of the sport, and mayweather had trouble staying at 130 as well, so mute point.

    I think you need to switch your "sarcasm detector" to ON. I laid it on pretty thick there, I didn't think it would get past anybody. If you haven't figured it out, I'm a Mayweather fan.
