I think Mayweather is already on his way to being classed as being one of the greatest (Just My Personal Opinion) i mean Six World Boxing Championships in Five Different Weight Classes means you are quite Phenomenal and the way he looks so at ease in a boxing ring is unbelievable i like everything about the guy, Agreed though to take out 2/3 of the names mentioned then he'd definitely be in the Top 10 IMO... Who would be your No1 because Sugar Ray Robinson is generally considered the Greatest Fighter of All-Time.
I'd probably rate.
Sugar Ray Robinson
Henry Armstrong
Roberto Duran
Ali
Pernell Whitiker
Sugar Ray Leonard (althought, I hate him)
Sam Langford
Willie Pep
Joe Louis
Jimmy Wilde
Obviously I haven't seen all those fighters live, but thats based on records, and achievments, and is in no particular order. Floyd is already on a par with Whittikar, and is one win away from being rated higher than Leonard. IMO.

khan not fit to lace his boots..would like to see khan v hatton
Was more using Khan's style of fighting as an example, rather than Khan himself.....Only somebody with equal handspeed and speed of movement will pose Mayweather any problems, all the aggressive, come forward, face first fighters, like Hatton & Marquez have just be made to look silly.
By the way, if Khan & Hatton ever meet I'm afraid there is only 1 outcome, and that is Ricky being pummelled again....the fella is finished and has been since the Tszyu (spelling??... ) fight.
Mayweather does actually look unbeatabl. Your saying put him against a simliar boxer but hes too smart and too clever for anybody to get near him he made a world class fighter look garbage on saturday. I think Moseley might have talked himself into Mayweather next fight was cvery disrescptful and Mayweather will clean him. There are only a few that if that are higher than Mayweather (Leonard,Robinson,Ali, Marciano and maybe Hagler) 2 more wins and Mayweather is the greatest of all time. Love him or hate him hes awesome
