I think its time to realise we may be witnessing something special:

If Floyd beats...
Hatton
Cotto
Mosley
Margarito
Williams
Cintron
Then maybe I'll consider him an All-Time great. He's on his way, the dude's skill is there, but he has to have impressive wins over more top contenders to be placed up in the ATG list. I think when he beats Hatton, fights the Cotto-Mosley winner, then by that time Cintron or Williams will have their names HIGH in the stratosphere of the WW division to the point where they're unavoidable. Miguel Cotto was in their same stage a few years back, and now he's very big, the same will happen to either of those guys.Comment

I don't think Floyd could be considered one of the greatest ever unless he loses. Without a loss to avenge there will be question marks about the standard of opposition he faced in comparison to the likes of Duran or Pep.Comment

Marciano is considered a great and hasn't suffered a loss budd.Comment

How many titles did Floyd win by the age of 17, beating a legend like Cervantes in doing it? Was Floyd a 3 weight champion at 22 with wins over people like Palomino on his record? He should be flattered to be compared to Benitez.Last edited by Cletus Funk; 10-16-2007, 07:33 AM.Comment

u have? u do know where that link of the most feared man on the planet goes, dont u? it goes to antonio margarito.... but u watched alot of boxing in ur life? HA!!!!!!
anyway, back to rationalit discussion here. mayweather is a great great fighter, but he aint the greatest of all time, he is one of my favorite fighters and i think he has a place in history, but i dont think he is the #1 greatest fighter of all time, but i respect if u think that. no one can declare who the greatest fighter is, its all opinion. if u think he is the greatest, more power to u, i wont argue that, as i think he is definitely up there...Comment
