Floyd, Manny, JMM and Bernard Hopkins are last of a dying breed

I agree manny is an atg but he is not a legit 8 division champ since most if those fights were catchweights. He's never even weighed above 150 yet he had the light middleweight title.While I agree that Manny is not truly a legit 8 division champ, I put the blame on the WBC for actually sanctioning that fight.

End these mere toothless worms. The dawn of my era has begun. Haha, this is amazing

They are heading into ATG All Time Great status, they are already hall of famers. I think B hop and Manny Pacquiao are already ATG's B hop has the record for most defenses, and Pac has most weight division titles, 8 weight division titles.

No love for Wlad Forgot about him, but problem is his division is so weak sadly. So sad he didn't even cross my mind.

No love for Wlad

End these mere toothless worms. The dawn of my era has begun. Show some respect Kovalev.

let the breed of floyd die, his kind had already dug the hole whereto bury the sports of professional prizefighting, those that will come after him will will deliver the final blow if he will not be able to do it himself next year.

With Floyd you mean the chicken breed?

Let's just say..only a select percentage...perhaps top 2% to 3% of boxers who can compete at the highest levels for YEARS ...that's longevity in the sport. There are many, many boxers who look great or promising after 10,15,20 fights and then level off. They can't maintain the motivation or they can't consistently beat elite world class competition fight after fight. OR After losing or getting knocked out, they become shot or lose their mental edge. It's amazing, that these older guys can school the young ones. Just shows experience, IQ, intelligence in the ring is a big factor.

I don't really consider them 90's fighters. They're more 00's fighters, given that they had the best moments of their careers during those years. But yeah, ok, either way, we get your point.

What is the point of your reply? my thread is to show appreciation for these guys. Ok, well I do appreciate those guys, but throughout history there is always some old school fighters.. 90s was filled with them, Holmes, foreman. To say these guys are a dying breed is inaccurate, they have always been around throughout history

There has always been guys like that.. Whose to say ward, Crawford, mikey, Danny,etc won't still be world class years from now.. What is the point of your reply? my thread is to show appreciation for these guys.
