I cannot support someone that is showing future generations of champions that it is ok to avoid the best fighters out there while taking the easiest path to greatness. I hate to say it but I do not want to see Floyd on ATG list or being ranked among ray Robinson, Leonard, Ali, hell even De La Hoya. Unless he fights Martinez, I can't see him as an all time great fighter. I see him along the lines of Sven Ottke, Joe Calzaghe, etc. A talented fighter, but unproven against prime competition.

He's way better than to be ranked with Calzaghe and Ottke but the rest of the post is spot-on. Last night was the defining fight of this era - and Floyd was probably somewhere finalising a fight with Robert Guerrero.
