    Again I say, Floyd paid his dues.

    I'm sorry that Floyd can still pronounce his name. But that does not, in any way, take away from his greatness in the ring..............Rockin'
    You don't make any sense at all.

    In any profession. Everyone can quit anytime they like to quit. Same as Ballers or what work you do. Your legacy is defined in what work you put on and not could have been IF he did this IF he did that.. It's what he accomplished.. Hope that's clear enough for you.

    His resume' stops once he walks out of the given sport. That's how it is. Nothing wrong with that. He pushed himself to what his capable off.. And that's where he will be judged in the boxing ranks.. As for Pac his still pushing himself challenging live dogs.. The most recent won is an undefeated Killer in his prime named Spence. If you have any sense at all.. An athlete overcoming obstacles and challenging himself over and over again 3 generations now is what separates the men from the boys. That's what separates MJ from other ballers. That's what seperates Pac from other boxer..

    Floyd has done a lot don't get me wrong, but he is safe to be in the top 30. That's just how it is. Be proud of him watch his next circus show. It's a treat.

      So true. They are now living in denial in a safe glass house they created for themselves.

        What does Floyd have to do to be as great as Manny? He has to wake up in the morning knowing that he stepped out while the steppin' was still good, with truck loads of money. I call that success in this sport

        When they fought, who won?

        And I do not recall Floyd ever being planted face first in to the canvas like Paq was.

        Paq coud fight forever and would never match what Floyd did.

        Lets see who can still count money when it's all said and done............Rockin'

          Ppl are talking like pac is going to win for sure already crowning him the goat all he has right now is big nuts to take such at fight so late in his career that doesn't make you the ATG if that's the case then McGregor is because he was a novice and his first fight was against the best of this era

          Let's see this forum if he steps in the ring with Spence gets battered is uncompetitive and stopped early

            He is great but no Manny great or Ali Great, or Sugar Ray Robinson great. His great for what he has accomplished. Nothing wrong with that.

            You can sleep good at night knowing Floyd is top 30 at least in the all time great list. That's all.

              That's the whole point. Those who takes risks are rewarded. Those who challenge themselves with their lives is what separates the men from the boys. Old school mentality is what separates them from others fighters.

              Ali had Parkinson because of boxing. He pushed himself to the limit and that is what a warrior is and recognized. I don't want to think Pac or any fighter who dare to be great should be injured in the long run.. but that's the risk they take because they have the warrior mentality to give a good fight. They still want to challenge themselves until they can't.

              That's the whole point.

              You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.

                Don't being too harsh on him. He did his best, but yeah he fell short of what he harps himself to be.. TBE! Nope.

                  Did you ever pull out all of these credible historians that put Floyd ahead of Manny. The last credible guy I can even think of is Bert Sugar rip
                  Like that surpasses beating a prime canelo. Even a cum gurgler like you knows this.

                  The lists have been posted many times. You’ve seen them and tried to deny them as usual.

                  Just move on to something else dude. Nothing more to debate about Floyd and Manny.

                  manny beats Spence it means nothing relative to Floyd.

                    Then you’re extremely feminine.Don’t let your personal animosity cloud your common sense about the sport.
