    Two Things I have to say involving Floyd

    I'm not a basher of Floyd or anything like that but what I have to say is

    Floyd thinks he the Greatest to put on a pair of boxing gloves and the biggest win of his career is beating Oscar, but I think if he really wants to to have that moniker the GOAT, then he has to get in the ring with Cotto, Williams, Margarito, Mosley. It wold be great if he fought all four of them, but hell even if he fought 2 of them and won, I think it wouldbe more justifiable that he can call himself the GOAT. He beat Oscar, beat Gatti, beat Corrales, Castillo (twice), beat Hatton, beat Judah, beat Baldomir and I think if he beats two of the four I just named then I think he'd have a good reason as to why people should think he's the GOAT.

    and the 2nd thing I have to talk about is one of the things he said on 24/7 when he was going to fight Hatton. He brought up the money in one episode that Hatton is making the most he's ever made because of him, and that de la hoys is making the most because of him, and I completely disagree with what he said about de la hoya. it made me laugh when I heard him say that the first because at least in my opinion the reason floyd got all that money was because of de la hoya and not the other way around, but then again that's just me.

    I wont hate him anymore if he would just get in the RING with the top guys at welter. Being that Cotto,. is prime undefeated and ranked #1 in the WW division, they have three common opponents and Cotto stopped them all and he is coming off a W against SSM..who topped Oscar twice, all calls for this fight. this is THE fight if Floyd wants to prove he is the best.

      I agree that he should fight Cotto, but to be fair to him even if he did fight and beat all on that list he still wouldn't get the credit he deserves.

        First off, he doesn't have to do **** against Williams. Secondly the way boxing works all he needs is for the best of the conteders to emerge and then beat him.

        And lastly but mosty importantly, because fighters are never gonna take 10 fights a year regardless of who he beats people are always gonna come up with another name he hasn't faced yet. New challengers come through at a quicker rate than Floyd is gonna be able to take fights, so he's always fighting a losing battle in this regard
