    Will Floyd still be regarded as TBE?

    No. The only person that regards him as such, is himself anyway.

    In the extreme unlikelihood that happens. And I can't stress enough how unlikely that is, Floyd either gets an immediate rubber match and humiliates Berto, or Pac fights Berto next, easily destroys him, and Floyd comes begging Pac on his knees for a rematch.

    The question? Nobody considers him TBE but him and Manny are tied for the best of this era, Mayweather is obviously slightly ahead due to him nullifying Pacman but I still consider their resumes outside of that equal.

    If Floyd loses at age 39 to a younger fighter I don't think it SHOULD have any affect on his legacy. Some of the greatest fighters of all time lost and lost a lot once their prime years were over.

    Floyd will never, ever have to beg Manny for anything.

    Nothing equal between Floyd and Manny except maybe the space in between the levels that Floyd is above him.

    Well their resumes look just about level to me, I consider them like ice and fire, two polar opposites of the sport, two all time greats. Pacquiao is capable of beating Floyd 4 times out of 10 imo, it's just that Pacman relies on freddie roach when his speed isn't enough to blitz a guy, who screwed up for that fight, being reliant on your trainer is no crime, not everyone has the genius brain of Hopkins or Floyd.

    Every time Floyd looks at Mannys resume he starts to cry. So you are right, they are levels apart.

    Pac=Boxer of the century.
    Floyd =cherry picker of the century.

    Picking on one armed midgets...****
