faded Shane Mosley
faded Miguel Cotto
past prime Oscar de la Hoya
smaller JM Marquez, who fought at 126 into his 30s
Arturo Gatti, who in Floyd's words was "a clubfighter"
Diego Corrales, who was distracted (upcoming prison sentence)
Zab Judah, coming off a loss & who had been KOed by Tszyu
Jose Luis Castillo, who beat Floyd but was robbed
Faded Genaro Hernandez, in his last pro fight
weight-drained Saul Alvarez, who hadn't yet reached his prime

1. Were yet to see how he performs against Alvarez.
2. Good point @erics44 the Ortiz fight had massive potential to be a banana skin and Mayweather has his quick thinking to be grateful of for keeping him safe.
3. I think the Corrales fight proved that Mayweather belongs at the top. Any subsequent fights are a prolonged continuation of that single moment.
4. Having said that, personally for me the fights in which he had been hurt or rocked (Corley, Judah, Mosley... Possibly Augustus) defines him as a fighter.

Original & Best: The Sugar Man
i think his best run was de la hoya, hatton, marquez
he had some great wins before but considering move up in weight and then the dominance against hatton and marquez of 2 extremely good fighters
i dont think since he has fought that quality of fighter, cotto perhaps but cotto was definately not at his peak
i think this alverez fight is back to that kind of quality
and i think this would be his best win

Ricky Hatton.... even though Hatton was the underdog, they expected him to pull off a shocker. He dominated Hatton from start to finish... clearly his most clear win in his entire career.
For Hatton to be dominated like that was nothing short of amazing.
Bigger man George, bigger punch!

The Hatton fight was marred by joe cortez who reffed that fight like a man with an agenda...
I was always neutral on Hatton. I didn't dislike him, I wasn't a serious fan either, but Hatton was fighting two guys in there.
Floyd deserves credit for taking that fight though because Hatton is one of the very few top guys in their prime that Floyd decided to fight. At the time, Hatton was The Man at 140.
Bigger man George, bigger punch!
