    Perhaps if they were both in their primes.

    Too bad lil floid didn't want to fight any top 3 fighters in their primes.

    Hmmm, primes, let's see, waaaay back in 2001, there was a prime corrales when lil floid still had nerve (lost the nerve next fight after the castillo fight.)
    Then you gotta skip all the way to 2007 for lil floid's next top 3 prime opponent in Hatton (with cortez' help).
    Does victor ortiz in 2011 count as a Top 3 elite prime fighter?
    Then you gotta skip all the way to 2013 and the blown-up 130 pounder Robert Guerrero who is a top 3 fighter in his prime.

    That would be 3 wins over Pacquiao, in all 3 phases of his "prime", and a win over Floyd.
    I'm cool with it.

    You forgot Hernandez, Manfredy & Castillo troll


    You could even argue Baldomir was in his prime when he fought Floyd, at the very least he was a linear champion

    I think the left hook helped more than Cortez did

    For the record Marquez loses to Floyd at any stage of their careers!

    Are you purposely trying to establish a record for stupid threads started in a row?

    The first fight was as one-sided as they come. Why would anyone even watch a rematch? Styles make fights. Marquez should stay 10 city blocks away from Mayweather. And even if an asteroid struck Earth and Marquez won a rematch with with Mayweather... would it make him the "greatest fighter of all times"? Sounds like a juvenile claim to me.

    Has Floyd beaten a Duran. Leonard, Hearns, Armstrong, Robinson? If he beats Canelo and Martinez MAYBE...other than that he is at the mercy of his era.

    That milestone accomplishment was preserved for such boxing legends as Joe Conde,
    Richie Fontaine, Davey Abad, Tiger Jones, Paul Pender, ect. Hahaha

    Mayweathe is an ATG but I agree the competition in his era does not warrant him to be the ATG ..est !!
