What the?! Yahoo put Floyd in the number 1 spot in their Pound-for-Pound list. Their reason is Floyd defeated Mosley in a dominating way. I disagree with this. Floyd only fought 2 times after his retirement. The first one is Marquez who is unquestionably good and really skilled boxer but is too small for Mayweather considering he come up 2 pound heavier in the weigh but still was not able to knock Marquez out. Next is Mosley who they consider as the best boxer Floyd ever fought. But he's almost 40 and you can see that in their last fight. The only way Floyd can regain the top spot in the pound-for-pound rankings is to beat pacman or if pacman retires. Its good thing that Pacman is still the Pound-for-Pound king in the bible of boxing, The Ring Magazine. What's your thought guys?

Ofcourse Pacquio is my only No.1 pound-for-pound king, nothing beats him until now. I guess Pacquiao needs to fight and win more so that people of the world will recognize him as the No.1 pound-for-pound king.

Pacquiao and Mayweather are all great and they possess superb boxing skill. But one thing that sets them apart is that Pacquiao will fight what the boxing fans wants, he fights for honor of his country and he fights for entertainment.

yahoo's ranking holds no credibility, especially kevin iole heads the sports section,totally forgettable and it is was aim at heating up the proposed math-up again for floyd mayweather and manny pacquiao. the panel of judges are misleading and are somewhat expected as anti-pacman.
