The title of the thread is a bit misleading, as if it is trying to suggest that beating Solis has put him up a position to #1, but I would have to disagree with that fight making the difference.

PErsonally I have him at #1 anyway, with Floyd needing a dominating performance to go #1, and that is simply on the quality of opponents they have fought recently, and their success. All I'm saying is that Zab Judah and Carlos Baldomir are not all-time greats, but beating ODLH, even a slightly older ODLH, will be a very good feather in the Mayweather cap.
