Floyd is so much better than his era that he will never get credit for who he beats!!

    At welter JMM fought Floyd and Pac twice. At SWW Floyd fought part time DLH and Cotto. No contest.

    Nice of you to enter a boxing discussion and provide input that isn't about the subject at hand

    But he was shut out by Floyd. Floyd beat the #1 ranked WW twice and the #1 ranked 154lbs twice :lol:

    The point is, this guy that's nowhere near as physically gifted or suited to move up took more risks in his 5th and last weight class.

    And BTW, DLH was not #1. And it's pathetic that you're crowing about him beating high ranked blown up welters at SWW, but when it comes to fight a real SWW, he's too small.

    Floyd will always be most remembered for who he didn't fight than who he did.

    And it's nobodies fault but his own.

    It'll always be: Could have, would have, should have...but didn't.

    He has very few defining moments in his career. No blockbuster super fight.

    I don't see him as an all time great. All time greats test themselves against the best...he clearly didn't...or hasn't for many, many years.

    They have been over and over you just chose to ignore certain points .No surprise Floyd does no wrong in your eyes .I mean you even discredit the
    Likes of Emmanuel Steward and just dubbed him a hater .Need I say more ?I think not !

    Talented he may be but his bottle crashed when it counted most, pac should have been the icing on the cake in 2010, a prime ATG, the man voted FOTD in floyds own era, but he didn`t do ****, and to make it worse he kept running his mouth like a stuttering ****. He can never rank with the true elite ATGs because those guys faced their toughest opponents, win or lose, they stepped up and mayweather simply didn`t.

    And neither did Pac so I guess they both will get an asterisk for not stepping up. And if they fought now it won't matter because of Pac's recent face planting by JMM.

    It is what it is.

    Can't we all just agree to disagree and move on? Some of you have got to be :tired of all the back-n-forth mudslinging by now.

    Look at cotto, mosley, delahoya, pacquaios record.


    Why does Mayweather's resume of opponents take a CLEAR considerable step down from those guys?
