can we just ban the 9 who voted "yes" and be done with it?
Does Floyd Deserve To Be Called Greater Than Sugar Ray?

why the **** do people overate this guy so much a great yes but his resume is'nt even close to the ATG fighters people like to compare him too
when he beats a few more Elite fighters i might start to listen
Dela Hoya 34 years old lost 5 times
Hatton 140 lbs fighter disaster at 147
these are the 2 best names on his record nuff saidComment

against SRR no WAY!!
SRL there can probably be an arguement made because he got a lot of gift decisions
ie hagler, hearns 2 (draw)... but i personally don't think pbf would lose to a 147 duranLast edited by DuttyAlacrity; 05-15-2008, 04:26 PM.Comment

gift decision he won 5 of the 1st 12 rounds against Hagler
Hearns 2 ,Leonard had already whipped him & he was shot by the time they fought for a second time more so than Hearns was anyway
J L Castillo beat Floyd Mayweather at least Hearns was an Elite fighterComment

How many round have you seen clearly on SRR. I know i have seen most of whats around and read up on him a lot but i can only judge how great fighters are of my own era. SRR was the man though, but he is only a man and any man is beatable. The main reason i would pick SRR is he is a bigger guy but SRR started at 135 right so it can not be that unfair a matchup.
I guess i would go 65/35 SRR/FMJ, if Floyd was anymore then a 3 to 1 dog i would easily lay my money on him in this matchup which looking at the responces thats who my money would be on.Comment

SRL knew he lost against Hagler that's why he wouldn't fight him again... and he won 5 rounds MAX that still says that he lost...
There's no excuse for him being beat by hearns the 2nd time because he was getting beat the first time... luckily he had the heart and the punch to end the fight in the 14 or 15 round. If it went 12 rounds SRL would have lost that fight. And PBF would not lose to a 147 duran! Also Castillo at lightweight WAS an ELITE fighter don't get it twisted... When Floyd and castillo fought Castillo was the BEST lightweight out there... because of the controversy floyd fought him in an immediate rematch and we all saw what happened then... that's a little more than what we could say about SRL and HAGLERComment

what are you on about comparing gayboy floyd to srr, he ko'd 108 people. Floyd has probably never sparred that many times ffsHow many round have you seen clearly on SRR.

Leonard did'nt fight Hagler again cause he did'nt need to he had already beaten him end of story ,he won the fight and just cause Hagler threw his dummy out & retired it dont mean he was robbed ,ive scored this fight that many times and even tried to give Hagler the benefit of the doubt and everytime i see Ray Leonard winning the fight or at least getting a drawSRL knew he lost against Hagler that's why he wouldn't fight him again... and he won 5 MAX that still says that he lost...

Castillo was a B Class fighter he is not in the league of Mosley let alone Hagler ,Hearns and he beat Floyd
Floyd probably rematched because he robbed Castillo ,Castillo is a B class fighter ,Floyd gives rematches cause he fight B Class fighters to pad his record or small or over the hill fighter like Oscar & Hatton
OVERATED
