    yes he would, he's the type of fighter who has the capability to win/steal a round due to high activity specially in the early rounds, that is one of the reasons I told most people he would do better against mayweather than marquez not winning a single round.

    I voted floyd but I think its close with jones and whitaker. I'm one of the people who rates jones fairly, unstoppable and a beast during his prime. Had he retired after beating ruiz, most would put him in the top 10. Right now I voted floyd because he is still active and each win from him he goes up the legacy ladder as long as he keeps his 0

    GOD DAMMIT! I voted for Floyd, he is the best fighter since Pernell, who was the best fighter in the last 25 years

    Evander Holyfield to me. He faced every meaningful fighter of his era and either won majority of these fights or lost in a good effort. Also his longevity sholud be considered. Often being largely undersized by opponents (Douglas, Bowe, Lewis, Valuev).
