    Anyone who puts Roy Jones Ducker in the list knows **** about boxing. Biggest coward in the sport.

    Every 5 post or so we get one of these guys out of the blue. I guess messageboard will always attract this kind of response no matter what the topic.

    Please let me explain something:

    There are no cowards in boxing and there has never been. Braves fighters have done cowardly things but, no are marked by cowardice.
    Once a man puts on the gloves and stands in from of a man who has been training day and night to break his neck you cowardice is out the door. Roy Jones Jr. has gotten in the ring gotten KO'ed hard and yet still fights on.

    Does Floyd move up at all for beating Canelo?

    You can't really rank Floyd or any other boxer till 5 or 10 years after he retires. That's because you don't know how good Floyd's victories are.

    If Canelo stays undefeated from here on out, and moves up to 160 and unifies and holds the belts for 10 years...then that's a great win for Floyd and his status improves!

    If Canelo goes on to get knocked out in the first round by Pauli Malignaggi then gets completely outboxed by a comebacking Mayorga....well then Floyd's win doesn't look so great anymore.

    So it's good to kind of see how the sport plays out before you can really rank guys.
