    There have been very few fighters who have dominated the sport of boxing years for 13 years like Floyd has (1998-present). Only Ali who was still champ after 13 years after he won his first title and Hopkins. There maybe 1 or 2 more but none have been atop of P4P rankings like Floyd's been!!! The facts:deal!!!

    stop quoting floyd. Remaining undefeated does not mean you dominating a sport

    Yeah you can make that case. Roy won his first title in 1993 and by 2006 he had suffered two "shocking" loses and was not P4P anymore. RJJ is one of the legends regardless.

    NOT!!! Sorry but Joe C had won his first title in 1997 and by 2008 he was retired. Joe C should be 44-2. Some believe he lost to Robin Reid and most thought he lost to Hopkins :deal.

    Lets see Genordo hernadez, DLH, (maybe Chico), JMM, SSM. JLC has a strong case and the way boxers get in now Gatti and Hatton may get in as well.
