    Ok but why the fight was delayed is a totally different topic.

      Yes, from what I see it appears most people rank Leonard above Hearns. Especially on a P4P and ATG list.

        one of his rivals who beat him won the following FOTD award. Manny was more active than said rival during that decade too

        Floyd had boxing on lock

          I’d put Leonard ahead too

          It’s all about winning

          Leonard got the better of all his rivals

            You have to beat the man to be the man. Floyd beat Manny and retired as an invincible boxer. And that’s the end of that debate.

            rustico torrecampo ranks higher than floyd since he beat pacquiao first and pac never rematched him so he ranks higher than manny lol

              Nobody ever mentions 1 without the other so a reasonable person would consider they are on a level playing field in that respect.

                Floyd fan just being anti social and trolling now. Nobody thinks Floyd's unbeaten, most think Floyd lost at least 3 times. But there's nothing wrong with floyd losing everyone loses.
                it's Floyd not taking risks, being cautious, trying to get advantages 98% of the time, no fighting outside backyard, no rematches, CWs against green fighters just before retirement, etc etc I could go on but you get my drift, is what Floyd gets penalized for.

                Floyd will never get the respect pac gets and will never be put on the pedestal like a Pac is

                  They’re about what within 5 slots of one another?

                    good comp yeah but not the best

                    if it was the best he'd be top ten all time great....

                    at best he's only top 30 to 50
                    It was better than Mannys comp, especially when you look into the opponent at the time of the match, lots of CW and BS with Manny resume + 7 losses and knocked out cold by the guy Floyd made look like a novice, every common opponent claim Floyd the better fighter.

                    No matter what way you carve it Floyd beats Manny, and if Manny gets stopped by Spence its definitely game over.

                      They have divisions for reasons, if Floyd was a natural MW he would beat both Jones and Hopkins, overall Floyd had a better resume than they did although as in the quality of the opponent at the time of matching.

                      You are all about the hype in boxing you never look further into a fight than their name value in the world of hype, you dismiss so many things that really matter.
