Pretty much on target !!! Why are you even putting him in Mosleys class when the core of PBF's success has been at lower weights. Not to say that he may not attain success later, seems you're putting the cart before the horse.
So he is the best because he rules this stable of opponents?

I never claim to be an expert...I'm a boxer...but you obviously are...so your credentials are?
Floyd is on a higher level than all of them.After he beats people they become nobody....But at the same time...you ask people who williams,margo,and cotto have beat and they'll bring up theses washed up fighters.
Floyd has done everything right!His fight game is near perfect,he is undefeated,is dedicated to the sport,and is dominant.He is the best.

Williams, Margo,and Cotto are unproven but they also have a good fan base, so until he beats them how is he better? Until he fights the "perceived" best out there how can PBF be considered the best. The boxers you mentioned above I assume are just as dedicated to the sport and dominant at times. And your reference as to boxers becoming nobody after PBF dust them off is ludicrous.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm I see Soto, Baldomar, Mitchell, Judah, Corrales and Castillo ("B"). Which of these is an "A" line fighter ? A ""B" ? More like "C" line plausible fighters with slightly better than average talent and all exhibiting pronounced weaknesses and let me emphasize " slow afoot except Judah"

Simply put Olympian904 there is no best at the current moment. One does not have to exist if no one rises above the rest. I have read many posts in here from Sweetpea, CutMeMick , Gamo , you, etc and you guys have more competitive battles than PBF. I ask if there are 100 ugly women does one have to be distinguished as the prettiest?
;D You make me laugh mate.
Have a CC by the way

that is called the sweet science. The problem that i have with PBF after Corrales and Castillo and yes Zab did more than expected, but there has not be any exiting fight with big names at 140 or 147 that include PBF in it. I know he is fighting Oscar for $$$$$$$$$ but then what retire? if he does that it will ruin the little reputation he has for the casual fan since they are more than the tru fan.
Re: Mayweather - Oscar ,anyone else not care ?
I couldn't really care less about This fight, id much rather watch Cotto Judah or Calzaghe vs kessler/Froch

I do not see any at this time Olympian. Too bad for PBF, just bad luck that his tenure was when his weight class was low in quality. This is not to take away anything from PBF, but if few people can recall his opponents how can it be expected that he will be remembered as an all time great? And if he is all that you claim, why does it take a part time boxer to generate the interest that is in his up and coming bout? Which bum would he be fighting next if it were not for the riches of he ODLH match? Plain and simple PBF has already won! By signing to fight and the weight issue at hand it serves as a built in excuse should he lose !!!!
