How good is Floyd's resume?

[diplo]

Floyd’s resume made him a 1st ballot HOFER, the best of his generation, and he’s the headliner in a HOF class with Ward and Wlad Klitschko.

There are no legitimate questions about his resume from rational people wanting to have an honest discussion.

Those that criticize it are the very worst portion of one of his opponents fanbases that predicted he’d lose but whom he defeated.

Instead of admitting they were wrong, they instead attack the “ freshness” or “prime” of the opposition to pretend Floyd would’ve lost had the fight been held earlier.

Now what we’ve seen lately is the “venue” argument where a few of the very worst posters argue that the resume isn’t great because he didn’t fight outside the USA. That is like arguing a golfer that wins 6 Masters isn’t great because it’s the same course each year.

This topic has been beaten to death among rational posters. Sadly, the very worst Manny and Canelo fans can’t let this go.

And yet our boxing oracle djtmal has been unable to name a single ATG that he thinks Floyd should have fought, to earn his prestigious esteem.

Both of those guys should have been ahead of Floyd since they probably went their whole career beating guys in their prime, but being the face of boxing does count for something.

Wlad got KO'd by Corrie Sanders. Are you forgetting your own rules...

Iron Dan thinks I owe him money

You're fully aware that you do.

You're also aware you shouldn't reply to me until you pay me what you owe me.

You are talking about a guy who still has threads on this forum from late 2009 saying that Floyd is scared and ducking Mosley and should fight him next as that's the best fight to make.

Then has the audacity to still post almost 15 years later that it was a cherry pick

The poor boy has no shame.

Oh haha. That would explain a lot. I hadn't bothered to go through his posting history.

Floyd's resume could of been great had he fought the best at their best during his run at 147.

For his pre-147 run or pretty boy floyd days, there just wasn't that many good fighters at that time.

So in short, Floyd's resume is good not great.

This sums up Floyd's career:

TBE said “Triple G is a helluva fighter,” he did allow that. Floyd said he’d come out of retirement for just one fight, that being the exhibition versus the UFCer McGregor. Were he active, he said he’d fight and easily handle GGG, but now, he wants a mega-money match, and that spells McGregor.

Damn too bad he couldn't have proved me wrong on that one.

solid resume, beat some good fighters, absolutely schooled canelo and made him look like a bum. although other than that a lot of names he fought were past prime when he fought him, not all but a lot were.

Hahahaha. So now you're changing your tune and suggesting he should have fought GGG, even though prime Floyd is a generation behind prime GGG. Makes perfect sense

You still haven't named anyone in their prime at the same time as prime Floyd that he should have fought. If you're going to spout BS, at least try and back it up, it makes for a more convincing argument
