    Yes the goat too much speed reflexes size power defense lateral movement stamia countering and ring iq for anyone to deal with. He was a stylistic terror at the weight a true h2h nightmare if there ever was one.

    Too be fair Alexis was nowhere near his best at 140 an was at the end of the road. But i agree mayweather would outbox him at 130

    no in every post you make, you're hating on something.

    43-0 is pretty reliable :yep

    his record was pretty damn impressive too at SFW. 27-0 with 21 Ko's

    The Hawk did not outbox him and was on his way to losing before the black bottle incident...not to mention 2 weight divisons beyond his prime and at the tail end of his career...You wanna pick Money fine, but apply different logic.

    Look this is a good thread I ask this of everyone at 130 not any other weight have you ever seen a fighter,that had speed,D,infighting ,combinations and ring IQ of Floyd and the must over looked thing the composure.

    Logic Arguello was one of my favorite fighters of all time but Money would put a beat down on him,way to much skill.

    I'm a big fan of Floyd and agree he's one of the greatest,but he doesn't have the resume at 130 to be called the GOAT at the weight.Flaco wins that hands down,and at his peak,whilst I'm not claiming he definitely beats Floyd at 130,he certainly was on a different level to anyone Floyd faced at the weight.
    H2H,Floyd stands up to anyone,especially Chavez but GOAT at the weight?
    Sorry but resume is a huge factor when you're making those sort of claims and Arguello is the best there ever was at the weight.

    I already said in an earlier post that I wasn't sure Arguello beats him,but when you're talking about the best ever at the weight,resume is a huge factor.
    There's a good chance Floyd beats anyone on the night,but that's far from the only factor when you're talking best ever.

    Well lets put it all together record wise # of years fighting and allways coming to win its a wash,like I said before Arguello was one of my favorites of all time Money beats him IMO.

    I can't argue,although I think Flaco would give him plenty to think about(given the respective stages of their careers) but I think what's needed is definition of what the OP means by GOAT.
    H2H-Floyd
    Resume and longevity-Arguello

    Only my opinion though.Not claiming it's anything else.
