This same topic came up about PBF recently. Nobody that's boxing today is going to be considered ATG.
The only ones that may be considered close are:
ODLH
B-Hop

Castillo is gonna spank Hatton.
If you think Meldrick Taylor is an ATG and Mayweather isn't than you have bulb lose... Meldrick didn't do anywhere near enough to be an ATG because he was destroyed that punch in round 12, and IMO Mayweather could beat any of those fighters you mentioned he would be too quick, and too good defensively for any ofthem.
I didn't say that Meldric Taylor was an ATG, I said that Hatton wasn't on his level. Mayweather is not an ATG to me either, he COULD become one, just as Hatton COULD become one. But I don't think it's likely in either case at this point especially if Mayweather retires after ODLH, then what would Hatton's big goal be?
For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
