    Mosley at 135 - Unbeatable?

    Seriously...

    He's the only guy I'd have to pick over anyone at 135, even (dare I say it) a prime Duran or Chavez.

    Am I crazy or what?

      i think a 135 floyd gives him trouble just because he could match him speed for speed, plus is taller and packed a hellava punch at that weight, but thats it.

        If i remember correctly he was 32-0 (30) fighting at light weight.

        Roy Jones said in an interview once ..."He's the greatest lightweight of all time, maybe after Roberto Duran"

          a prime duran or JCC would prob beat him but he was an amazing lightweight

            Mosley had his off days at lightweight. If he dominated the divison i wasn't impressed the way he went about it. I think he is a better welterweight then lightweight.

            Huge let down fight, his fight with Philip Holiday. Mosley gassed out in the later part and just boxed his way to a victory. His fight with Leija, Molina and Johnson weren't impressive to me at all. He impressed me more as a welterweight.

            I don't think he's the best lightweight. Mayweather keep challenging him to a fight. Why that fight didn't happen im not sure.

              You're nuts. Do you know who he was beating at 135 when he looked so unbeatable? The guys he beat were weak challengers that allowed him to look superhuman. He had no big time victories at 135 and no big names. His best victory was against Holiday. He never fought Stevie Johnston, if he had fought him and beat then I could see your point.

                Based on what? He had great potential but his body of work in that division is terrible. His best win was over Phillip Holiday. Enough said really...

                  He just seemed to have so much of everything at 135, it was insane. he was also considered p4p best at that time too if I remember right?

                  I don't know but damn, he was ridiculous at 135.

                    his opposition was decent at best.

                    duran would beat mosley @ 135. so would whitaker, maybe chavez and mayweather too.
