    it's not that.

    it's just so hard for today's modern fighters who fight 35-40 times to compete with guys who fought 150-200 times like the oldtimers.

    plus with the boxing politics of modern times it makes it harder.

    floyd is great but hard for him to compete.

    look at ali's resume. sonny liston x2 , frazier x3 , george foreman x1 , ken norton x3 , floyd patterson x2. how does floyd compete with that?

        he'd be top 5 G.O.A.T. no doubt...to do all that and somehow capture a middleweight belt then I would rate him as 'The Greatest Boxer Ever'.

            his 5 titles in 5 divisions are impressive but think of it.

            oscar has 6 in 6. even manny has done 5 in 5. no one is saying they're the greatest of all time.

            is what those guys have done really that impressive?

            i think armstrong's world titles at 126 , 135 and 147 (when there was only ONE title and NO JUNIOR and SUPER divisions) was more impressive to be honest.

                he needs to fight Pacquiao, i can see him beating Marg, he's to quick..I can see him beating Cotto depending on how well he handles his loss..williams might be to tall..

                Pac is a good fight, roughly the same size, Pacquiao is blazing fast, high workrate, lots of power excellent feet & chin....BIG FIGHT

                  mismatch. not only is floyd superior in skills. he's bigger too.
