He's done it all. He's fought everybody - unlike that Fraud Mayweather.
As an all time GOAT, he's #2 behind Ali. I put Robinson at #3 behind him, because while he was a good fighter, his footwork and speed is nowhere near Manny's greatness.
If that Fraud Mayweather dared to take the fight so he can get smashed, I would move Manny to #1 ahead of Ali.
But... at this point in his career, what else does Manny have left to prove?
Im as big a Manny fan as they come, but no ****ing way is Manny, or will he ever be GOAT. Even if he beat Bradley again, beat Marquez via KO, beat Floyd twice, one by KO and one by FLoyd quitting, then if he beatbroner Garcia, etc etc. He would always be an ATG even without that but never in top 5 ATG
Maybe top 10, which is way more than what I can say for FMJ
Well he could prove that he can beat the flying dogshlt out of Floyd...but Floyd is such a *****boy coward so that will be hard to do.
I totally agree. Since Floyd wouldn't fight him, Manny is really the #1 P4P king right now. These last 3-4 fights in his career are really gonna define his final status. It's really possible for him to edge out Ali as the greatest fighter of all time.

Nothing to prove, he is still in the game, because he is waiting for Floyds fight. Otherwise he would of retire already.
He was a fn legend before his rise to welterweight. Gave us classic battles before that, then gave us superstardom at welterweight. He really should have retired after margarito hell even cotto fight cuz the margarito,mosley, clottey, marquez, were all pointless fights. He had already lost that killer instinct to finish guys n would just let them coast to finish. Too much politics n religion softened him
But like all great fighters they stay. Past their welcome, and manny needs alotof omey now to make up for his sh**** team. Weery well may see him fighting till hes 39-40 like marquez n maybe another person will KO him along the way sadly
who's saying he has anything to prove? the only time i see people talking about proof is when it comes to the hypothetical mayweather fight and frankly i'm not convinced that that fight would "prove" anything to any of the zealots.

Thanks for this. Wonderful insight.
Nothing left to prove. Unless they can make the Manny/Floyd fight, there's no point. I love watching Manny fight and will miss the days when he's gone from the sport...but what's the point of hanging around to fight Tim Bradley whom he already beat convincingly, or any other TR recycled fight. I'd like to see him beat the sh*t out of some of the Golden Boy WWs but Cold War prevents it, so just call it a career, Manny.
