    Boxing aficionados had Floyd #12 on that list (Greatest in the last 80 years) and Pac was simply NOt on that list. It's irrefutable. History will also see it as such.

    That was 2-3 years ago, before he won 2x vs Maidana, beat up Berto and then beat up Pacquiao.

    I suspect that man should be around 7-8 now.

    Thanks.

    Pac was never on said list and never will be. Historians/Aficionados/People who know the game don't even have that man as a top 50 fighter of all time.

    They have Floyd top 10

    It is what it is. :deal

    Not on the list of boxing aficionados, robbed Floyd of said title. And then got beat up by a real ATG champion.

    Facts. :deal:hi:

    You guys quote that but that title was given to him by he bought off Top Rank buddies WBO. It is not a universal award. Use the internet properly.:-(

    :deal:thumbsup:good

    Yep. Pacquiao wants more because Bob took alot of that money from him. Manny loves being the slave of a old hebrew. De La Hoya, Mayweather, Cotto, Martirosyan, all left because of Bob's crooked dealings.

    Fighter Of The Decade is just an accolade; has no real bearing on how a career pans out...Case in point, many boxing historians have Harry Greb ranked over Benny Leonard, but it was Leonard who was voted Boxer of the Decade over Greb...!!!

    Pac will be known as the guy that ktfo by Marquez and followed Floyd around the ring
    He will probably lose to Bradley aswell

    Why is the TBE #12? Doesn't TBE mean best ever? So much for TBE?

    Doesn't that mean then that he is NOT the best ever? He's the twelfth best ever?

    When Floyd beat ATG's Victor Ortiz, Andre Berto & Robert Guerrero he was truly became an ATG himself.

    Then fighting a 152 pound skeleton in Canelo and old man Cotto it really made him TBE

    Then he topped the cake with the cherry by edging a 2015 version of Pacquiao in the most overhyped fight of the century.

    Truly a legend...

    Absolutely astonishing victories. If I wasn't so severely dehydrated I'd be salivating at the mouth right now.
