    Do people really think Floyd is the best fighter ever? **** Floyd is great but lets be honest not the greatest. SSL, Duran at any weight, Hearns ko mayweather easy, a prime DLH, Tito, Winky beat him, Casa would have beat him. Way too many fighters would beat Floyd so lets stop the BS

    He'd be a tough fight for anyone @ 140 or less. Pryor, Arguello, Chavez, Whitaker, Sanchez, Meldirck Taylor, .......all great fights @ appropriate weights. Funny those came off the top of my head, must be the era I grew up in

    Nope.

    No fighter will ever surpass SRR, the past greats are held too high on a pedestal.

    of course...NOT!!! but he is great, just not the GOAT. Robinson and Ali are generally regarded as the GOAT, and with plenty to back it up. not too late for floyd. do or die time and needs to make up his mind if he'd happy as a hall of famer or wants to cement his legacy as a one of the GOAT.

    Gayweather is the GrEATEST ducker and one to fight boxers past their prime as well as forcing them to move up in weight to fight him.

    Floyd is the GREATEST ***!!!!!!

    I will assume you made that comment after 3 sixpacks and a temporary
    lapse in judgement.
