    Placing TBud in an All Time Greatness Neighborhood

    I think somewhere between top 13 to 20 all time would be it. Now he likely takes on 160

    Slot him at 14 and kick that tiny, jungle-born Asian loser off the list.

      why so negatively fixated on manny

      Maybe 13 if he finishes strong at 160 and retires undefeated

        Only male in 4 belt era to have 3 unified weights. Went up 2 weight classes and clearly defeated the cash cow and top 7 p4p boxer by a wide margin.

        That deserves respect.

          Crawford is my favorite fighter, but it's hard for him to arguably take the top spot, with that being said I could see Tbud winning against Floyd, Leonard and Duran. So I would place him top 8-7

            that number is high

            Sugar Leonard and Floyd each ran through multiple all time opponents.

            TBud has one so far

              He is already an ATG , discussion should be more about GOAT status which is more of a representation of your list.......

                by definition there can only be ONE goat

                my top 5 all time list are the untouchables

                modern boxing is structured in a way that won't ever allow any contemporary fighter to breach the top 5 all time

                1 or 2 fights per year isn't cutting it

                  This is true , but screw that the top 10 guys on your list could be #1 (GOAT) on someone else's list .
