    He doesn't challenge himself with tough fights. If he fights and beats:

    Pac
    Mosely
    Williams
    Berto

    then retires undefeated that would raise him up higher in my eyes.

    As a boxer he is one of the best, if not the best to ever do it. Boxing is the name of the sport and he can definitely do that. If he didn't have brittle hands it would almost be unfair.

    He's a definate HOFer and ATG. Wins over Pac and Mosley in 2010 would solidify him as the best fighter of his era.

    Ive tried with this guy about 13 times, he doesnt listen, Ive even explained to him how to do it, the incredibly difficult task of ticking a box, yet he continues to create poll after poll, all hidden :-(

    Good Poll. Lower level ATG at this point.

    Depends on what he does and who he fights for the rest of career I suppose.

    What if he was to get sparked by Pac, Mosely et al?

    Definately a HOF regardless but he'll need to improve his resume to be a high ATG

    With Floyd its difficult to rate him overall as a fighter. At 130 pounds, Floyd is in my opinion the greatest at that weight class and has the resume to back it up to be classed as a "High Level ATG".

    But being that at 140 and above he hasn't truly tested himself, I can't call him a "High Level ATG" in the weight classes of 140 and 147.

    Floyd at 130= High Level ATG
    Floyd at 135 to 147=High Level HOF'er, but not ATG

    Low-level all-time great. His resume needs sharpening.
