    He could have taken him lightly, and I wouldn't deny that Raheem was a tricky son of a gun, but Erik wasn't inherently unequipped to handle cutiepies in ordinary circumstances. He didn't just lose to Raheem, he lost dismally and looked like a shadow of himself.

    The guy was past his best and hurting at the weight when he rematched Pac. I'm honestly surprised that any learned observers would dispute that. The best you can say is that Manny got him out of there in style. Like I said, I'm happy to give Manny MAB, I'm not about denying him due credit.

    They are all the same to me tbh nothing stands out

    At the end of the day would of been great to see Floyd fight the best fighters even near to the prime better yet when they were prime.

    Floyd's greatest skill was his ducking.

    Corrales, Gatti, Hatton,.. I know a bunch of good fighters on his list just not sure if they're already in the HOF but Im sure some will be. I get what you're saying though. Thing is Floyd fought a lot of his better opponents when they were not exactly on their prime.. but then who does? Lots of fighters are in their prime for a long time or have even more experience as time goes by... IE: Paquiao, Cotto, DLH, Mosley who had him on ***** st for a minute there... Castillo Manfredy and Augustus are all memorable names.. Fantastic resume regardless... Also keep in mind most of the fighters if not all have lost during their prime to even lesser opposition..
