    Mulitple weight divisions is bollocks IMO

    show me how many fighters have more than 4/5 Elite fighters on thier record ,thier aint many because that is the real yard stick IMO ,Beating Elite fighters is what makes u great not going up in weight divisions & identifying weak champions in those divisions
    Because what he has done has never been done, so like him or not he has earned his right to mention himself among the all time greats.

    Floyd has beat people who then went on to be champions, what makes a fighter elite in your eyes?

        Debatable wether Hatton is an Elite fighter but he has beaten [Wrestled ]another Elitwe fighter in Kostya Tszyu so u could argue that Hatton is Elite also

        still very debatable IMO as Tszyu was at the end of his road & Hatton virtually Wrestled him to quit

          No one has ever won world championships in 5 weight classes and remained undefeated as he has done.

          So is he supposed to go back in time and fight these elite fighters you mention? who has he not fought that has been elite?

            that exactly why he is undefeated cause untill last year he had'nt fought an Elite fighter untill he faced Dela Hoya & that is still the best name on his record a guy who is 34 years old who has lost 5 fights ,and the reason he wont fight Cotto is because is because he wants to keep that "0"

            he could fight Cotto he is an Eilte fighter ,he could have fought Kostya Tszyu ,he could have gone back down to Super Featherweight

              I don't think so, I think the puerto rican people would expect more from cotto and would at least add to the pressure to fight the risks.

                youre going to argue that going back down to super featherweight, a division he started at, would look better for him? im done, that makes no sense. You just dont like the guy, and thats fine, but your positions are getting ridiculous now.

                  Floyd has beat people who then went on to be champions, what makes a fighter elite in your eyes?
                  Cotto also have beat fighters that when on to be Champs(Peopele like Malinaggie, Torres, Quinta etc.)Cotto is not going everywere saying: I'm the best ever I'm #1, I'm this and I'm that. he just fights. Thats what Floyd should do Fight not wrestle or Dance. What will be next Singing? Mayweather is a good entertainer but he is not a All Time great. No way!

                      No but. Look at this, Floyd Stole the LW Title from Castillo, He won the JW Title from a wash out Gatti. He won the WW title From Baldomir. Are you kiiding me! Baldomir!Thats a Joke. and the SW from a old rusty DLH. Oh! and tell me how many times have Floyd defend those titles.Not to elite fighters.Not even Fighters in his own division.
