    He also said, "I had 3, 400 fights & every one was a pleasure." That is a fighter

    Legend. If you talk about those in the discussion as the GOAT and don't mention Sam, you DKSAB. And that goes for every talking head on sports radio calling Floyd the best ever.

    Floyd had a heck of a career, but the truth of the matter is that no modern fighter can compete with resume monsters like Sam and Harry.

    It's like trying to hold modern pitchers in baseball to records set in the deadball & early eras of the game. There's no catching some of those legends, and their records are essentially unbreakable. Langford deserves that kind of unending respect.
