With the exception of JLC 1, where Floyd was in the most trouble he has ever been in, when has he not performed 100%?
pbf has never had a fight where he NEEDED all of his skills throughout the fight....in castillo 1 that was more of floyd thinking that castillo was going to roll over and gie him his belt because floyd was the up and coming champ from 130....
I think you just answered your own question, Floyd Mayweather has never had too use all his skillset while being in 5 different weightclasses. Is incredible and if he is forced to use all his skillset against Shane Mosley. Then wouldn't the smart money be on the fighter, that in your opinion hasn't had to be at 100 percent to win in any fight ?
And that fighter is Floyd Mayweather. He has never been in trouble because he is so well schooled so gifted, he has the technical skills of Hopkins who had the ability to nullify guys like Pavlik and Calzaghe's offense so that they could land almost nothing effective. Mayweather has so many facets to his game, and that isn't even including his amazing physical gifts, he's one of the fastest guys in the sport, he probably has the fastest footmovement, and based on compubox he is by far the hardest fighter in the world to hit, and unarguably one of the best defensive fighters ever.

Mosley is a great fighter, but can you argue he's one of the best ever in boxing at anything besides athletic ability?
