Mayweather comes back and beats a lightweight now they have ranked #1 at WW?

[JazMerkin]

Mayweather gains a #10 ranking at welterweight according to Saddoboxing.
He was the lineal champ when he retired and had a win against the #2 p4p guy, because of all the circumstances surrounding the fight and the WW division as a whole #10 is a fair rank. If he wants to move up, he needs to beat someone ranked higher (i.e. a Welterweight), simple as.

Killer, let's not pretend there aren't some major problems in our ranking system. I don't care how good the division is, no way is Mayweather not one of the top 5 at 147. Isaac Hlatshwayo, Luis Collazo, Manny Pacquiao & Zab Judah have not beaten people at Welterweight worthy of them being better.

Thing is Floyd said the "r" word "Retired" so now what has he done since then? A very convincing win and impressive performance, but not very relevant to the Welterweight division really. Isaac Hlatswayo beat Rodriguez from the pool who is a legit Welter, Collazo you have a point he really hasn't had any real success in quite a few years on paper but he had a very close fight with Berto, also a legit Welter. Pacquiao beat ODLH who against some of our better judgements was ranked as a Welter, he may legitimize this in the Cotto fight. Win or lose Pac's place at Welterweight will be legit. Judah is on his way out as well, 3 months til we boot him.

If you feel strongly about Floyd moving up, you could always put forward a motion to bump him for your manager vote next month.

I grant Rodriguez, but I was never that impressed by him. I've got a lot of other thoughts on it, but we'll save that for the ratings board, like the secretive trolls we are
