BoxRec inexplicably currently has lil floid #1 at Welterweight.

I don't see how 2 fights in 3½ years warrants any Top 5 ranking at all.

One fight was against a fat, old Featherweight, career 126 pounder who floid called all the way up to Welterweight, against whom floid weighed in a few lbs over the contracted weight and still danced to a sleep-inducing 12 rd decision.

The 2nd fight was to a 38 year old shadow of Shane Mosley who still almost cracked lil floid out of there inside of 2 rds.
the same old Featherweight that had just gotten robbed by Pacquiao a year earlier and the same old Shane Mosley who Pacquiao is now facing and his fanboys are trying to hype up as a legitimate challenge, it goes both ways buddy

and Floyd is listed as #1 at welterweight because he's still the Lineal Welterweight Champion, unlike Manny who just holds a strap
The bold is just incorrect. The boxrec formula gives no weight to titles/belts etc. It is straight math.
i'm not saying it cause of boxrec, i'm saying it because Mosley was considered to be the lineal welterweight champion since he beat Margarito, Floyd beat Mosley hence he's the Lineal Welterweight Champion of the world, no different to when Manny beat Hatton (who had no strap at 140), it's not opinion it's fact, funny how the Pactards (who don't think on their own) build up Manny's accomplishments yet love to tear everyone else down, and bradlee are you really talking about being "manly" when you have a picture of a fucking Troll doll on your avatar? riiiiiight
