    Let's be real here, THAT is the reason you don't think he will ever be an all time great. Floyd won't get respect even if he retires after unifying the WW division, by then they will say he is ducking Berto or someone else. It won't end as long as the gloves are still on.

      I agree with this, what idiot doesn't have Floyd as their p4p number 1 fighter in the world, there must be about a handful on this entire site. Floyd's the best in the world everybody knows it, but he isn't unbeatable nobody is.

        In all honesty I have never, and will never say that Floyd has ducked anyone, and even if he retires after he fights Ricky (win or lose) I would still not say he is ducking anyone. I hate it when people say that they will give him respect after he beats Cotts, then mosley then.....and the list is never ending, because they never will give him respect. I hate the guy real bad, but I will respect him for what I think he is. He is a damn fine boxer. Not to my taste, but his fitness and defensive skills are amazing. Do I think he is an all time great?? No, not even close.

          A few "haters" don't have Floyd as number 1, usually they have Pacquiao. Floyd's fans say that's ridiculous and is pure hate and come up with all sorts of reasons why this is an example of utter hatred. Where is Floyd on the "haters" pound for pound list? Number 2.

          At the very worst Floyd appears as second on the pound for pound list of most people and we're supposed to believe that he's underrated. Crazy.

          He's number one on my list.

              Win or lose, he'll still be recognized as the best in boxing.

                I ecknowledge him as the no 1 p4p champion at the moment, but I think Cotto would beat him good. I also think RJJ was a better p4p champ

                  I agree that PBF is not underrated the thing is that too many people judge his in ring abilities based on their dislike of him outside the ring. Which is very ******. Its like a religious fanatic saying that since Tom Brady has a baby out of wedlock he is not a good quaterback.

                    Why do fans boo him when he fights if its purely his mouth that people dislike?

                      Out of 38 fights how many times was he actually booed?
