    next fight was against Pacquiao and he beat him then retired could he be considered the greatest of all time?

    No, emmanuel isn't good enough to do THAT much for Floyd's legacy.

    No there's not much Floyd can do to become the GOAT. It's not mostly because of him though, it's because the top 10 is very hard to reach

    I don't agree with this list 100% but I like it a lot because it's a decent list and he gives good reasons for each fighter's position

    Not at all. It's more because you asked a pretty ridiculous question.

    However, I should applaud you for at least asking. Many new posters just come in and talk **** or make stupid statemewnts. So, that said, my bad. :thumbsup


    And the answer is no. That would not be enough. Not even close.

    He would have to beat a klitschko to do that.

    No.

    He would need more HOF'ers and ATG's on his resume.

    If he fights Pac, had fought Margarito when offered the 8 million years back, had fought an undefeated Cotto, a prime DLH, Mosley, Tszyu, Casamayor and Freitas and won them all then he would be in with a good shout for GOAT.
