    I love Roy but he has tarnished his legacy by fighting for 50 dollars against a grizzly bear or whatever he's planning next

    you mean at 152?

    How about Roberto Duran who was 79-1 at one point
    won the lightweight title and middleweight title

    who finished with over 100 wins

    hows that one for ya?

    Hamed good god there are plenty of fighters way way better then him, lets look at the top fighters in the world outside Floyd, Ward amazing fighter undefeated as a pro olympic gold medal ect, JMM pure legend, Rigondeaux top 3 ATG amateur honestly think he beat Barrera Morales ect, Pacquiao Ledgend, Klitschko top 10 ATG heavyweight IMO, and many more you can name, the idea that the standard of boxing has dropped is bull**** IMO, look at the 147 division or 122 division as strong as they probably have ever been.

    Is this a joke? Floyd's resume is not good,it's composed of hand picked opponent. Floyd is not even top 28.

    And none of the guys that Floyd fought with the excpetion of a faded Oscar were even close to being half the boxers : Hagler,Hearns ,Benitez and SRl were when Duran faced them ! Duran never waited for those guys to get old nor did he opt for a retirement so that he woldn't have had to face them !

    Add to that at aged 38 he jumped up to middleweight and exchanged blows with Barkley, and won. (He also displayed under-rated defense)
