      a legend-has the great skills.. but fights thru adversity,challenges himself beyond what is asked of him..wants to fight anyone who is considered a threat..legacy is all that he is conserned about

      i think since boxers started making so much money thats why we have fewer fighters willing to fight to be legends..sure we still get great fights..but not like we use to..back in the day fighters fought no matter what..**** ppv's,purse splits and all that other buisness ****,,thats what promoters and managers worry about..fighters fight.....

      lol, trying to bundle all fighters with the ***** cord that has swathed Mayweather eh?

      Nice try, but um,

      Izzy Rafa 3 times
      Morales Barrera 3 times
      Morales Pac 3 times
      Pac Marquez twice
      Pavlik Taylor twice
      Castillo Corrales twice
      Mosley DLH twice
      Mosley Winky twice
      Mosley Forrest twice
      Forrest Mayorga twice
      Margarito v Cotto, Shane, Paul, Kermit, Josh,
      Cotto v Judah, Shane, Pac
      Paul v Tony, Winky, Kelly


      Shall I continue with these fighters who aren't willing to fight to be legends?

          very quick to back down when a challenge presents itself.

                    I'm not debating Floyd, I gave you a list of fighters.

                    Now,

                    tell me how those fights happened again.

                      A legend fights everybody and wins against top elites whilst ducking nobody.

                      Gayweather can never be a legend coz he's a coward.

                      Cowards and legends dont mix.

                      Of course if u love cowards... which I know you do... then suit urself.
