      Floyd's resume is pretty solid from top to bottom. He could have done more no doubt about it, but his resume is not that bad and most everyone on his resume was beaten impressively (or atleast somewhat one sided, JLC 1 excluded and possibly the Oscar but that fight was not that close in my eyes).

      I doubt he will come back for just 1 fight though so he will probably fight, so who knows how his resume will end up.

            We have went over this, when judged against his peers what he did is impressive.

            If you put him in some special class by himself where he has to preform super human feats to get that type of credit then well, it is whatever way "you" want to look at it.

              It really was Just a "yes" or "no" question..

              So I repeat.. does Solid = ATG ???

                Jones fought Tarver three times. Just a small error there.

                  ATG to me means that a fighter would be great in any era of fighting. To me Floyd is an ATG.

                    It doesn't, look at MAB and EM for example, Pac may have beaten the more accomplished fighters but Floyd beat the tougher fighters (Corrales, JLC). Also has a draw, plus a very disputed 2nd fight with JMM doesn't mean much, sadly...the dude forgot to add Jesus Chavez and Genero to Floyd's resume
