Take light welter, Floyd fought Gatti then ran away from Tszyu, he ran up a weight to take longer to beat a fighter that Tszyu had smashed off the canvas.

There is no denying Pacquiao has fought some very dangerous fighters, even dangerous fighters who dont draw crowds, like Marquez, right after he beat Mab, when he could have taken a soft touch, whereas Floyd has avoided all his percieved threats, like Tszyu, Mosely, Cotto, Margarito and Williams.
Maybe you should check the chronological order of things. Tszyu lost weeks before Mayweather fought Gatti against Ricky Hatton, Tszyu was set to fight Hatton before Mayweather was set to fight Gatti. Mayweather always wanted to face Tszyu. Out of all the guys you mentioned only Mosley is a real threat to Mayweather because he is impossible to hurt, and he has the speed to keep MAyweather on the defensive. Cotto doesn't move quick enough, nor does he have good enough defense to stop Mayweather from pot shotting him. Margarito can't deal with movement, and Williams is terrible against a fast counter puncher.
