        You need to bump off George Foreman and replace him with Ray Leonard lol

        I see your point though. I have Floyd somewhere between 50-75 on my ATG list

          i thought i put leonard...... oh **** i didn't.

          i was just going off my head. it's not my top 25 list.

          i was just thinking of guys that are not even debatable that can be bumped off in favor of floyd.

          some of the old timers had more title wins than floyd had fights!

            Yeah I know. I think people who say Floyd is top 25 (or even Top 40) just haven't seen enough other boxers to make an accurate list.

            For example, there was a thread about Mayweather defence last week and one of his stans claimed he'd easily UD Benitez at 147. People like that should be tied down and forced to watch better fighters.

              every fighter has those kind of fans.

              floyd's are the worse though.

              i think one floyd stan posted one time that floyd would school duran because duran was a limited brawler and floyd would eat him up!

                Yeah I've heard Floyd fanboys proclaiming his superiority over Duran as well. Firstly because he lost all his big fights and secondly because Floyd would never lose to the guys who beat Duran.

                It make you wonder do they know of any other boxers besides Ali and Tyson before the 90s

                  lets be honest floyds skills are somewhat overrated too. if you think about it, fighting the opposition floyd does would make anyone look unbeatable.

                      While he's undoubtedly one of the best fighters of this generation, his skills are sometimes overrated in an ATG sense.

                      For example, there isn't a single weight division that he's considered #1 ATG or a single boxing attribute that someone hasn't better better at.
