    You're the one detracting from the wins. I give Floyd a lot of credit for the Oscar win, it's you that reads far too much into nothing.

    Again I ask, why did you state Mayweather was so much better than Oscar at 140 and below when they both beat the same quality of guys really? Try not to bring up welterweight fights this time.

    First of all i smart enough to know that you can't compare a group of fighters in a different era, different weight class and just say who is better. I've stated this already. Too many variable. Floyd's 140 reign was brief so idk where u got the comparing 140 between Oscar and Floyd comes from.

    People in this room is throwing names around and flashing victories of battleworn dude as a sort of arguement point. Maybe i should challenge ali a fight now.

    Well................
    Both were at their best around 135-140. So again I ask, how is Floyd so much better when they both beat the same quality of guys and won titles?

    Oscar can fight 10 more old ATG on his resume and i will still say Floyd is better bc i know Floyd will beat those old champs as well. Old champs doesn't mean ****.

    I already said they got the same quality resume...

    A prime Floyd > A prime Oscar. I was talking about ability.

    Read everything that i have post where i said. I have made it clear that you can't take two guys opponents in different era and expect a accurate answer.

    Oscar looked every bit as unbeatable as Floyd did at those weights. Maybe watch some of them?

    Oscar's resume is like twice better than Fraud's resume.

    The names in your resume >>>> The undefeated record

    Actual accomplishment >>>>>> people's perception of how good you are or skills................people with less skills sometimes accomplish more

    Hey ur entitle to ur opinion. Maybe my opinion is wrong but when i see Floyd fight i know he is clearly in a different level than Oscar.

    I see one fighter who is quick, agile, good defense, offense, excellent in all ranges, accurate, great counterpunching and hardly ever get hit.

    To someone that stands their ground with a strong stiff jab, good power, mediocre footwork, weak right hand, and decent variey in shots.

    It really isn't hard to figure who is the superior fighter. Even my 7 year old daughter would know who is more impressive.

    It depends on when you got the names.

    It also depends on if you won or lost against them.

    Is this your warped logic that convinced you Holyfield is >then Lewis HW VS HW Resume?

    not very high on the list, but they are both ATG if you go by top 100. Oscar fought better guys, but Floyd has beaten better guys in convincing fashion.

    Let me guess pac's resume is so much better than Floyd's too right? Even though they fought a lot of similar opponents and have same type of resumes as well.

    are you questioning if Pac's resume is better than Gayfeather's? Are you stupid or just plain dumb?
