    You know a few months ago or say a year ago I wanted manny to beat floyd because floyds a loud mouth idiot, but since seeing how this Manny fans(*******s) act I hope Manny loses and gets destroyed by floyd or gets destroyed by anyone. I just want this ******* era to end already this guys no nothing about boxing, heck they know more about Mannys toilet schedule then they do boxing.

    :lol: seriously I feel you and they are getting worse. I can be a little extreme some times, but I for the most part keep it reasonable. I know Manny ranks over Floyd in history at this time, but to say he's not a great fighter :patsch

    Floyd's legacy as a Top 50 ATG is already sealed.

    Of course Floyd is great. Is he a legend yet...no. Floyd just has legendary skills.

    to answer the question simply....

    OF COURSE HE IS!

    this is as stupid of a thread as the "Is JMM a great fighter"......

    Had he not reign the p4p ranking for some time, before Pacquiao? You think some overhyped chumpmeat gets into that ranking at all?

    Floyd is a great fighter! His best wins are all fantasy matches.

    Floyd was a great fighter. As to how great, we may never truly know.

    Resume-wise, I doubt he would be top 100 atg. Hernandez, gatti, baldomir, hatton at 147, corrales, past primes Hoya and Mosley, Castillo and the rest is not even top 100 atg.

    He is one of those fighters who people see for their potential or what they could possibly achieve with their skills rather than what they actually accomplished.
