    Your lack of objectivity is matched only by your lack of intelligence. I doubt even Floyd seriously considers himself #1 of all time.

    It's all a complete unknown though. P4P all time lists are a bit dumb, we simply don't know.

    What we can say is Floyd was one of the most talented fighters to ever lace up gloves.

    Anyone who tries to make out he's not a borderline hall of famer and not one of the 20 or 30 best fighters of his generation is a straight up hater IMO.

    Nobody has said that. I don't particularly care for Floyd. But, I absolutely think he is a first ballot Hall of Famer. I also think he is definitely one of the top 5 or 10 fighters of his generation. I just don't believe this generation of fighters is particularly good. Therefore, I have Floyd somewhere in the top 100 fighters of all time, but certainly no higher than 60-80.

    I certainly could. But, unlike you, I get paid to do my job, and therefore do not have the time to do so right now.

    He's definitely one of the 60 best fighters of his generation for me. No question about it. Anyone who says otherwise DYSAB.

    And you would be full of **** to.:deal You couldn't name 100 fighters better than PBF that means you would have to have guys from this era in the top 100 ahead of him that alone would make your list ****.
