All the ATG's had a career defining fight. Which was Floyd's?

[deevel79]

Ali vs Frazier
Duran vs Leonard
Hagler vs Hearns
etc......

Which fight did Floyd have that put him on the map with past atg's? What was his "legacy" fight?

[deevel79]

Did he even have one? Or does his status stem from his unbeaten record?

[Clegg]

His most impressive performance was his win over Corrales in my opinion.

Some would say the second Castillo fight.

[pesticid]

Unfortunately he didn't have one. He could've had it with Cotto.

[Kastrioti]

That's exactly what I think everytime I see PBF's resume. He doesn't really have a defining victory that stands out.

[AceNguyen]

Would it have satisfied you if Floyd faked a few knockdowns against Chico Corrales? Because then maybe he would get some credit for beating a top 5 P4P fighter that weighed a dozen pounds more than him on fight night.

Im not asking for his most impressive victory. Im asking, what was his career defining fight/opponent?

[Clegg]

Im not asking for his most impressive victory. Im asking, what was his career defining fight/opponent?

My answer would be the same.

[ferocity]

Most impressive has to be the Corrales fight though there is diffently some negative i can talk about that fight but that has to be his most impressive win.

Ali had frazier(Great fighter).... unfortunately for Mayweather nobody come close to him or Frazier in his own era for that matter.............Leonard had Duran(another great fighter)...........But who does Mayweather have to dance with on the level of duran or frazier in the opposite corner? NO-ONE not Cotto or corrales..
