Not even then would he be at the level of Ray Robinson was...Robinson was virtualy unbeatable as a welterweight...If we take Floyds best opp so far and added the list you have up there it would look like this...
Corrales
Castillo twice ( Most believe Floyd lost one)
Corley ( not in prime)
Gatti ( I love the guys heart and style but not hard to beat)
Judah ( was winning the first rounds even had Floyd feeling the shots then broke down )
Sharmba Mitchell-( again not in his prime)
ADD
Baldomir-until the Judah fight almost unknown
Margarito-??
Cotto-not a P4P fighter
Mosley-In Mosleys prime I pick Shane all DAY
Hatton-He lost most of his aura in the Collozo fight
Wright-We all kow this is easier said than done-Would be best win on list
DLH-Again at 147?? even if he did it would be a rough night

Some of Robinsons key opponents--
Fritzie Zivic
Jake LaMotta
Henry Armstrong
Sammy Angott
Artie Levine
Kid Gavilian
Bobo Olsen
Randy Turpin
Rocky Graziano
Joey Maxim
Gene Fullmer
Carmen Bassilio
Joey Giardello

And thats just a few of the 200+ he faced most of his wins came way past his prime---How can the resume even be compared----Floyd listens to his camp to much...He said if a fighter doesnt think he is the best reguardless of his record he is he doesnt belong in the sport...Well he has a point but then again there is just plain out right stupidity

CC back at ya if you should ever get a chance ( Please don't confuse me for a Robinson bandwagon or PBF hater) see if you can watch a couple of robinsons fights on tape...Unfoutaneatly...it is hard to get his welterweight bouts when he was in his prime...Hell he beat Fullmer at 37 and fought almost 50 times after...

If you ever get any time watch this clip...http://youtube.com/watch?v=v9FmVXjfefs a bit long about 5 min or so but shows how goo Ray was
