    It ends brutally for Floyd after Leonard Ellerbe murders him for rejecting his repeated sexual advances. :-(

    Broner would've beaten him.

    Yeah, I don't see the fighers he avoided who were that great, or would've made a massive difference to his legacy.

    There's been plenty of discussion about it in this thread and many others, I'm not going over it again so you can then just dismiss it the next time the same. ****ing. debate. comes up.

    So it's the usual tripe then. It doesn't matter what fighters he fought, it's when he fought them. Cause he's the only fighter in history that hasn't fought fighters at their absolute peak everytime :roll:

    No, but AGAIN there's plenty of fighters that have done plenty more.
     
  12. Lots of other top/great fighters have pretty poor records by comparison with their actual ability.

    Floyd's is just one of the most glaring, made worse by people believing that he's the greatest of all time.

    Someone like Tommy Hearns also fits this category, as does Roy Jones, Bernard Hopkins, Juan Manuel Marquez and others.

    Yeah but I said there is no one he didn't fight that would've made a significant difference to his legacy, not how much he did in comparison to other fighters.

    It would've been nice to see him fight Cotto back whenever but he's fighting him in May and Cotto's probably a tougher proposition now than he was when Pacquiao fought him, at least mentally. He was all over the place against Manny ; fought like a clown with no discipline after doing okay early on.

    Pac's wins over Barrera and Morales rank higher than any Floyd victory that i can think of in the last 5 years.

    Like someone said on the previous page, the man has the power to make ANY fight happen at ANY time, yet he always comes with an excuse. Shame really.

    He wouldn't of been this consistent in the 80's though. But that's understandable with the amount of beasts around at the time.

    Nah, Pac's handspeed was just too much for him IMO. That got Pac' into the fight and forced Miguel out of it. Cotto was okay for the first two rounds, got caught, and then it was over. Nothing he could do to change that because he isn't all that.
