    ...:patsch

    Not a floyd fan or even a manny fan, but that statement is so so wrong.

    I would care. As much of a jerk as he is, he has great skills. If he decided to stop taking the B opponents, there are plenty of A fights out there for him. Some of what I consider as his B fights, were great fighters. They were perhaps previously A fighters, or smallers A fighters which make it a B fight for him.

    His A opponents now would be:
    pacman
    Sergio Martinez
    Paul Williams
    Cotto
    Margarito
    Angulo
    Kirkland
    Berto

    So as you can see, he has many

    No I don't care either way.

    Truth be told he aint really as relevant any more. If he came back and destroyed berto, cintron, cotto maybe he'd be relevant who knows.

    But right now I don't rate him that highly, he's semi retired and years removed from his prime.

    Put it this way, if he came straight back to a fight with pac I wouldn't expect him to last twelve rounds and I wouldn't overly credit pac with that victory. Much harder fights out there for both. Pac has martinez, floyd has court.

    I wouldn't care. Boxing is bigger than one fighter. Anyway, he really does not come to fight. It is all about him. He is a HOF fighter, but ATG I am not sure. Maybe top 75 ATG.
