If Mayweather...

Honestly I feel that if Floyd really wanted to cement a legeacy- he has the skills, has belts at different weight classes. On paper he's the man. I feel like to get legendary status he has to- not just beat Oscar but give 150% doing it. Hit him with every damn thing he can. Work until he's ready to drop. Then do it again against Shane. Again against Margarito. Do it to every damn fighter out there, and win or lose, eventually people will take notice. I think some don't see Mayweather as having heart.

Look at Hearns. He lost the two biggest fights of his career by getting KOed and still is a legend for fighting his ass of in the ring.

Purely!

Excellent!

I agree that that would make him one of the greatest fighters of all time and that will make ordinary people buy his PPVs.

You could make a case for him being top 10 talent wise but his problem will be a lack of high quality opponents in the latter part of his career. Floyd is young, if he wants that kind of respect he should whoop 3 or 4 opponents the quality of DLH or at least attempt to. I think people should also look at how the defining fights of a ATG are fought and won. He needs to put on a boxing clinic and totally dominate DLH and others from here on out unless he can demonstrate some power at this weight. Win or lose to DLH he has a place in boxing.
