    No one can usually answer this question.. What other non ATG or great boxer can go through Floyd's resume without a loss of the circumstances was the exact same? I know it's hard to say because he went through so many weight classes.. How about from the Judah fight through Maidana II.. Maybe even assuming he beats Pac...

    I'm not sure what the purpose of this question is. I don't see boxing as a video game where the sole purpose is never getting defeated. If that's what you understand from boxing, you can call Floyd TBE, it's just not how I see it. Floyd wins, but he doesn't dominate, that's 2 very different things.

    Winning is winning.. If Floyd wasn't great, he wouldn't be winning every fight.. If his resume was so easy and he cherry picked, then more non great fighters can do the same.. Of course sports isn't about going undefeated but if you could, you would try your hardest to do it.. No one wants to lose...

    Your question is pointless given that Floyd gives himself the monicker of TBE. if he's claiming to be better than ali, leonard, duran, robinson et al, then you have to back it up by fighting the best and he should be compared against the best. just to start, leonard, duran, hearns would tear up floyds resume and beat everyone floyd's fought more easily, more entertainingly too.

    Floyd is akin to a guy playing in the NBA D-League scoring 40 pts a game then claiming that he's better than MJ but refuses to face the same competition that MJ did to prove it.

    Floyd's overall talent is not dispute but rather his unwillingness to back up his boasts and take on riskier fights. Fighting B level or downhill A level fighters and then claiming to be better than the greats makes him a sham and many of his die hard *****s refuse to see this.
