    all im saying is his inhability to make fights with Benn ,Eubank,Collins cost him an even greater legacy

    at the end of the day the where better fights out there than Frazier & Hall it didnt have to be Collins ,Benn etc ,he wouldnt even fight Nunn who had lost how many fights by that time

    im not saying he is a coward im just saying he took his foot of the gas & went into cruise control ,he was making **** loads of cash so & was recognised as the best fighter in the world why not fight the likes of Hall etc

    it definetly hurt his legacy though IMO

                    They both had the ability to make their opponents look worthless but RJJ is still fighting and PBF retired...thats the biggest difference to me.

                      Paz = champ at 135 and 40. fight at 168

                      If anyone fought 'em past it, that's Roy
                      if anyone fought more guys past their prime when comparing the two ,its roy.. floyd has by far the better resume..
