Oscar De La Hoya
Shane Mosley
Juan Manuel Marquez

And to be honest at the time, Hatton

Can't see him getting in with Golovkin

Mosley was old then. The oscar fight was a square dance that no one deserved to win. He fought Marquez before Marquez went on a "training regimen". The Hatton fight was an extremely quality victory but IMO it was his best victory up until the Manny fight. As far was slick boxers go there is nothing I've seen from mayweather that makes me think he was as good as Whittaker in his prime.

He fights at his age and beats Golovkin or even loses in a close fight he might be top 10 worthy but until then his schedule. Just being undefeated doesn't make you automatically a 10 or top 5 all timer. If so they'd be saying the same about Andre Ward.

He threw less because was fighting him with a 5 inch less reach advantage.

It's probably impossible to beat MW when he fights you with that reach advantage in the style he does, if Manny had 5 on him he'd slaughter him.
Hahaha goodness me. Now you're complaining about his reach advantage.

If Mayweather had no arms I think Manny might shade it. Lad give it up

If Ward goes 48 fights undefeated they may say that.
 
Mayweather is a good boxer but he's also a smart booker.

He's made a lot of money out of this game but he's also never booked a fight he might lose, and he could have done.
That's not true. He's fought lots of people who went into the fight with a great chance against him. He's just beat them all.

Honestly I want to ban all under 30s on here from even attempting to post about boxing and football ad you're all mostly clueless.
