    Ok, one more mother****ing time. What great fighter did Floyd beat that was the not smaller than Floyd and close to his prime? ONE? Just ONE?

    Jesus Chavez, and you can not blame Floyd for opponents losing to other fighters. Unlike Pacquiao, Floyd has never won or competed for a vacant title, he has defeated the real champion in every weight class he's fought in. I personally can not see what your beef with Floyd is, he has fought every challenge necessary to seal his ATG/P4P status

    Little Jesus Chavez who no doubt has been elevated to ATG status in COde red's eyes.

    Yep, the atg Jesus Chavez:patsch. I'm still waiting for you to answer the question. The difference between May the Fab 4 is that they fought ATGs in their prime. Mayweather didn't.

    Oh so now he's little, though they both were Super Featherweight and Chavez came in heavier than Floyd after the weigh in

    Not the one you're thinking of but he did fight a Chavez earlier in his career.

    Honestly, Floyd may not have even one in his prime ATG on his resume BUT look at the names he has, it's still A LOT of good fighters on there. He's got a good resume, even lacking an in-prime ATG, that's my point, being undefeated against so many good guys also helps boost it, I doubt anyone's done it to such a level in history.

    The only reason why someone would say Floyd is TBE is because they're black and racist. Which is ironic because so are most of the six fighters who easily out-rank him. By the way, Floyd was injured but he clearly lost in Castillo I. If it was a legal procedure and Castillo wasn't Mexican he could challenge the decision on common law. He would have won an appeal of the decision to the WBC.

    Floyd is the ATG, can he fight himself? His opponents will get to tell stories about how they fought the ATG and came up short. But isn't Pac an ATG? Or is he only an ATG when he fighting Bradley, Algeri, or Rios? Against Floyd he's pass prime right?

    No question he has a good resume, and is a atg fighter. But any claims that he faced the challenges that the Fab 4 did are completely ****ing absurd.

    Manny's been past prime for awhile. Or was he close when Floyd beat him according to you?

    And Who did the Fab 4 beat other than each other? Maybe had one gone undefeated and dominated the lot of them then maybe you would get a TBE. So now you mad cause nobody can beat Floyd, and your argument is that he ain't fought nobody? You mad cause he makes so called great fighters look like bums, Pac, Canelo, Marquez,etc..they can't even compete with Floyd. So who do you blame? Them? No you blame Floyd! You not a boxing fan because you fail to see that it's his skills not another fighters "prime" that makes Floyd the best
