    Cool. Let's switch it up to a more positive vibe. This is the perfect time to go back and watch some old Crawford fights. Recommend me one to have with my coffee please.

          So his award is like Trump’s peace prize from FIFA, not a real award just something made up.

          Floyd is just better.
          Can't you look it up? I only found out by chance myself, I wasn't even looking for it a YouTube vid just appeared on my tv while youtube app was on. Are you in denial of it? Just tell yourself ring is always more credible than any wbc award, rather deny its existence

            Way to switch it up

            First you say Floyd is such a defensive genius

            Then when you realize when he failed to do that vs the best at their best you flip flop to rankings

                  All the legit historians were probably working for ring mag, and voting on poll

                    I didn’t deny the award. I denied the existence of a poll you cited. Stop being dishonest.

                    The award is just some manufactured thing. Not a real award.

                      No he really didn’t. No one fights everyone.

                      I just think it’s silly to claim a duck for every fight that didn’t happen and apply that only to Floyd. That is incredibly biased.

                      They both have ATG resumes. Floyd’s is just a bit better, hence why he wins this poll and all the others.

                      Doesnt mean Manny’s is weak in any way.
