    Enormous talent dosent do it alone...it should be tested from time to time again...Rivalries define your greatness. like Ali vs Frazier,Foreman,Norton; Duran vs SRL,Hearns,Hagler and vice versa and the list go on and on...Thats why Legendary Tyson and Holmes's legacies were a bit questioned because of less quality opposition they faced during their time although its not entirely their fault

    Take Ernie Shavers right, Lamotta's chin, and Leonards speed and you have Floyd Mayweather on a bad night.

    Ridiculous question.

    At 130 or 135 I'd take Arguello over Floyd all day every day as long as it's 15 rounds.

    Possibly. I think he is. But Floyd definetely has had the best boxing career ever.

    He has the potential to be close,he just doesn't have resume though if he were to become active again in the WW division and beat 3/4 of the top guys like he clearly can,he'd have to be up there
