    He never beat a great fighter in their prime. If he's placed top 25 its a joke. He should have took the Pac fight if he wanted to hang top 25. He will never in a million years deserve to be top 15. Your on crack mate :nut

    Your opinion is irrelevant. Pbf is the best fighter of this era and arguably the best defensive fighter of all time. If he finishes his career undefeated he will be a top 15 atg.

    Which still ranks him below Duran who most have in their top 10. But both are great, great fighters, Duran just has a way deeper resume, and far more fights under this belt.

    Floyd is easily ranked higher than Duran. Floyd is not only the best fighter in the world right now, but for all of boxing history.

    He's not ATG anything. You don't duck your main era rival blatantly and not get discredited for this. You don't avoid every elite fighter in your weight range post-2002 and not get discredited for this.

    Also, JLC has a W over him not in the books, blatant decisive victory that the judges robbed and he took him close in the rematch.

    If your deluded self thinks there's no difference between Duran and JLC then you don't deserve to be on a boxing forum. :patsch

    They don't know anything beyond their favorite fighter.

    Who cares if he retires undefeated. It's all about the resume. Who you fight, when you fight them etc. Floyds record is decent but not great. If your going to throw Floyd in the top 15 just because he retires undefeated you might as well throw Calzaghe in there as well.

    You have ******ed boxing logic :deal

    Mayweather would win this but Duran would of been the first to knock Mayweather down, but Mayweather has the skills to see of the onslaught of Roberto Duran.
