When Floyd retires...

Tbe

 

Hard to determine yet, fighters are usually fairly judged at least two to three years after retirement. One thing's for sure, he's going to be rated #1 by far and away as the best and most successful business man in the sport ever.

 

One of the greatest of all time.

In terms of resume

Top 20 easily.

In terms of boxing ability

Probably one of the greatest of all time

 

It still doesn't look as though he's fought a prime ATG. He lacked that legacy fight he so sorely needed.

If he was to fight Pacquiao however…. yes, top 20 easy.

 

Top 100 and that being very very generous, i am probably overrating him.

 

top 40-50, no better. He has not looked for great challenges and has fought top 10 always, but not the top fighters. I don't see how he can be seen as that high on the list. He never fought everyone and took a chance.

 

how do those names look in 20 years? Not that great. Only Marquez and Mosley and maybe Cotto stand out, and Marquez was heavier, Mosley old and Cotto worn out.

 

He missed his chance. Impossible to put him in the top, I dunno 40. Manny a lot easier

 

Greatest all time what???? Ducker ? Cherry Picker? Coward? No way in hell does he get into the top 200 ATG's I'll admit he is one of the most naturally talented boxers I have ever seen BUT talent alone does not make a boxer an ATG
Floyd screwed up his own legacy by cowardly ducking Paquaio, Margarito, Martinez etc etc
He will never be any more than a very talented Prima Donna

 

Top 20 atleast it's real hard to argue against results.

 

Top 100 is def me overrating him.

Top 180 is more suited.

He could have been higher but he ducked too many fighters.

 

how can he be rated so high? He ducked so many fighters and waits for them to get old. That is not a really high rated ATG. Top 20 the lats 20 years, but if you go back in time he goes higher. I don't see how a guy who avoids tough fights can be seen as great. It works against boxing and insults guys who really put their balls on the line.

 

If he whoops bradley and Lara, I'll put him in my top 15 maybe even 10 to be honest. Right now he is at least top 25. IMO he doesn't have a record filled with ATGs, on the level of the usual people you see in top 10s, but he does have a very strong list of very high level boxers throughout his whole career. I also think the general opinion if him will go up as the years go by.
