    Wont bother me one bit if he decides to retire, in fact, if hes not gonna fight Pac or Martinez, then honestly he might as well.

    Avoiding bob arum fighters? A guy that wont take a test ? A guy who should be banned from the sport? A guy that "wasnt ready for Floyd" lets be real cotto wanted no part of fighting Floyd.

    but he fights a guy who beat the **** out of the cheater. Hatton who had never lost. JMM is a hall of famer but he gets no points of significants for that fight from me.

    And you did not see me say he is better than SRR

    There is a new meaning of the term "long lay-off"!!!!

    It does not mean "vacation", "lost urge", "floored'.

    Bob Arum fighters lol. At least Arum promotes his fighters.
    Half the sport is Arum or GBP so that is meaningless. If you care about the sport you put a grievance with an 80 year old man aside.

    At the end of the day all he did was dominate b level fighters and benefit from the bubble era of America and HBO hypejobs. Great boxer but nothing close to what *****s describe. Fighting JMM at 135 is one thing, fighting hatton at 140 as well, he has names but not the right numbers.

    He walks with a lot of money but 100 years from now that is what he will be remembered for.

    I believe Floyd wants to get to 45-0 and retire. 50-0 is reachable, but he needs to hurry up.

    Hope he gives the sport of boxing a few more fights. What a career. It has been an honour watching poetry in motion.

    Haven't you heard of Pac? Coz if anyone would be remembered as the best of this era, it's Pac, and it's not even close. :deal

    Sure, dude. He could be.. only if he would just fight Pacquiao soon. If he does that, win or lose, he'll get the all the respect he's been longing for today and in many generations to come.
     

  12. ATG's has losses..it made them a better fighter,and its an indication that they faced the best of their era...look at marciano,hes undefeated,but is he revered as robinson,duran,leonard,or even ali?

    calzaghe,hes undefeated, but does anyone cares?heck, hatton will be more remembered than calslap.:smoke

    he doesnt have to fight pac to be looked at as the greatest fighter of his generation. PEOPLE WANT TO SEE THAT FIGHT INCLUDING ME BUT THEY DONT HAVE TO FIGHT THEY HAVE BOTH DONE ENOUGH.

    you trying to compare what Floyd has done to calz please. Manny has not faced Floyd either. It works both ways sorry to tell you that. Manny's loses and "draws" are a reflection of him getting his ass kicked.
     
  15. I agree. But if he chooses to retire, he already can. He's the greatest boxer already and without a loss. Fact
