Floyd competed in the Olympics and has an undefeated record. Floyd even said he is better than Sugar Ray Robinson and Muhammad Ali. Why did he not receive the Fighter of the Decade award?
probably the inactivty..also the fact that pacquiao became the first boxer to win 7 world championship titles in 7 different weight classes in 2009 i think helped too.
It's a simple answer really. When floyd was taking retirement breaks every couple of years, manny was moving up in weight and beating bigger stronger guys.
