    I could make arguments for several great fighters in history from LaMotta, Leonard, Dempsey, etc.

    No, he is good but just so boring to watch. He takes no risks.

    Hes a great fighter, but he is absolutely overrated. He will beat Manny and still be overrated. Hes the best of this gereration, but not by much Hopkins, RJJ, Manny, there are a few equally as great fighters, but they were unlucky enough to have early loses. Floyd has benefited greatly from sociail media. Hes great, but not anything near SRR, Armstrong, Ali, Pep, etc.

    None of his contemporaries (other boxers) really feel he is overrated. Do they think he is the best ever? No. Is he the best ever? No. Is he the best of this specific piece of modern era? Possibly. That isn't being overrated.

    Calling Floyd ¨TBE¨ is like calling Tim Duncan the GOAT NBA player
