    Freddie Roach has said that Manny would be willing to fight any of these guys, so lets say that in the next 12-18 months he actually does it and walks away with 3 victories, where wouild he stand in peoples ATG list? For me he'd be somewhere around the 8 to 12 mark.

    And before people slag me off, i'm not saying i think he would beat these guys, i reckon he'd beat Hatton but get counterpunched all night long by Floyd and he's just too small for Marg (Althugh i would absolutely love it if he did!)

    Top ten greatest of all time.

    If he beats Hatton and then Floyd he's top 20 no doubt.

    Top 3 ATG. SRR, Ali, Pac. Of course alot of guys will have claims to 3 as oppose to pac but Pac definitely would have a case.

    I remember people saying back when Pac was 130lb that should he do the impossible which is beat PBF, he would be top 3 ATG :) I bet if Pac were to do all that people will just turn around and say if he beats Calzaghe they would rate him top 10. Wait 5-10 years after his retirement, we will see then how people truly rate him.

    But he will try, and that's what you gotta love about the guy. He will attempt to be great despite the task at hand looking impossible.

    its really hard to dislike a fighter with so much heart and a desire and willingness to become great
    you haven't seen a p4p no1 guy so wiling to go into afight knowing he's not supposed to win

    Top 20 ATG. Top 15 is very hard to crack because of the fondness for old fighters I really don't see anyone being able to get there. The most recent fighter is Pea Whitaker who usually ranks top 10 or top 15 ATG.

    He's not beating Floyd but if he did accomplish all of these fights he'd be top 3.

    Top 10 All-Time. Easily. The win over Floyd would be HUGE.
