    Ok I read it wrong. Well any fighter with 39 wins who fought decent guys but never fought the top tier. Whether it is 39 or 59. Roy Jones was a little like Floyd, but at least he outclassed Toney and Virgil Hill and his offense destroyed guys. I think it is more significant that Ray had less than 39 fights with a better resume than Floyd, and Ray had real legends on his resume with less fights. Ray's resume was not just better it destroys Floyds. Floyd does not have one fighter on his resume to match Benitez or Hearns or Duran. Shows you what a reallly great guy can do if he takes on all challengers. Floyd has not taken on all challengers. The challengers were there for him to fight. Cotto, Margarito,Tsyzu, Wright.

    Winning belts is one thing but really being an ATG is another. Floyd does not have the resume of an ATG. You have to fight great fighters to become ATG and fight great fights. I know it sounds harsh on Floyd, but those are standards which great fighters have followed and Floyd has not followed them. He has handpicked his fights and picked easier guys of the top tier, not saying those guys were not top tier, but they were the lower level of that top tier. That is not the path of an ATG.

    Well I do not think Winky Wright is necessarily great, but his resume is much better than Floyds. He has more losses, but he also has better wins. If Winky beats Williams, I would like to see Floyd move up and fight him. That is a fight Floyd can win with his style. Would mean a little. Better than fighting Marquez, whom Floyd can beat easily.

    I think a ATG fighter has to fight a certain level and beat them more impressively to be ATG. If we let anyone say they are all time great because they are undefeated and in the limelight, then what does that say about the other ATGs who earned their spot fighting wars and taking on all challengers?

    I guess but some tiny stick man from some recently discovered island beat the **** outta the same Oscar that was so exhausted they had a medical staff on standby because they felt his heart was going to explode when Mayweather fought him, yet was possibly ascared to let his hands go.

    How many times do I have to say it?:patsch If you're a 147 pound fighter and you show up on fight night weighing 148 then you're not a natural 147 pound fighter.:deal If 140 pound fighters show up on fight night weighing more than PBF does on fight night tells you everything you need to know.:deal PBF should be fighting at 140 but due to his skill level he can still fight at 147 and 154 and have success. That doesn't mean he's a natural 147 pound fighter that just means he's great.:deal

    How many times will ****ing idiots like you continue to spew this ****ing bull****? I putting an end to this lie. PBF offered Hatton a chance to fight at 140 when both were their back in 2005 but Hatton declined. Blame Hatton for the fight not taking place at 140 not PBF. What do you want PBF to do wait around for Hatton? PBF wasn't going back down to 140 at that time because he was fighting at 147 the linear champ and was on top of the boxing world. Not only that it was Hatton who called him out and challenged him. The Hatton fight should have taken place at 140 is nothing more than a hater's excuse trying to discredit the win. When the truth is PBF would always be a stylistc nightmare for Hatton and would beat him at any weight.

    In closing quit with the lies to try and further your anti-PBF agenda you have little credibilty when saying **** that has been proven not to be true dumbass.

    Another dumbass statement. It's stuff like this why you're one of the worst posters on ESB and will say anything to further your agenda. Worst robberies ever? GTFOH! I guess you've never seen JCC-Pea?:deal PBF-JLC was a close fight that could have gone either way it was by no menas a robbery. Learn the difference between robbery and close fight before popping off at the mouth dumbass.:-(

    I can't believe people are still writing in this topic.

    I said like it really is about Floyd. The guy doesn't have championship balls, can't take a real risk. Needs it his way everytime. And when he's in the ring, at times he will take the wimp way out like he did against DLH. He could have gone right at DLh, and try to make an historic KO, but he didn't as usual. He just tap tapped for 12 rounds, just to get a decision, that he knew he would get with his judges. I actually fell asleep during that DLh/PBF fight, seriously too!!! IT took Pac to go for that historic DLH KO, and kudos to Pac for having the guts.

    Boy, these Floyd lovers have got it bad, I'm telling you.

    The guy is a irrational idiot. Saying things that have been proven not to be true over and over again.:-( I guess if he thinks he repeats them over and over again they will eventually become true.

    I see you backed up on your bull**** hatton claim when you get called on your bull****.:lol::rofl:lol: Now you're on to the usual PBF hater bull**** about him being a *****, you're too easy.:hi: Could have gone after Oscar. Fool PBF is a defensive counter-puncher that's not his style. I guess Winky is a ***** as well since he could have stopped Tito but instead chose to stick a jab in his ****ing face all night long and make him look like an amatuer?? You haters are too much.:-(
    Just say you can't stand the guy because he beat all of my favorite fighters most of which with ease, talked **** and did it his way and I want to see him bruatally KTFO you'd have more respect that way.
