    I love Patterson. Great boxer and a great person. Did some incredible things through his run and after his reign spread some fantastic wisdom. Easily one of my favorite champions.

    Floyd shows the GOAT what real speed looks like:

    I've always wondered where that photo came from!

    Note the respect Ali shows Patterson second time around.

    Floyd might be the greatest heavyweight gentleman champion ever.

    If you count his entire career he might hit top 10 heavyweight OAT,but his championship career really spat on that potential,discounting that I think he fits.
