    If Floyd wants to fight for the money. That is fine and that is in his right to do so. He really does not have to fight the best. He can make millions fighting lesser opponents. I have no problem with that.

    However, his fans can't claim he is the best. He is not the best. To be the best you have to beat the best. You have to prove you the best. And, as long as he is not proving it. He can not be called the best.

      Or Sasakul, or Barrera, or Morales...these guys don't have many common foes. Of the ones they do, BOTH can say they put a ton of wear on (Hatton, DLH, Marquez) prior to the other facing them down.

              if floyd isn't the best boxer right now name another fighter that has remained undefeated in 5 weight classes winning six world titles, never taking a vacant title

              name one fighter that comes close to doing what floyd has done so far.

              you know he is the best that is why you are in this thread trying to convince others he is not.

                  Anyone can remain undefeated if they don't fight the best all the time.
                  Why doesn't Floyd fight the best and prove to us that he's the best ?
                  Let me guess.. He doesn't need to because "Everyone knows he'll beat anybody" right ??
                  Come on.. How can you be a fan of this guy.

                    how do we know he's the best? he refuses to fight real WWs like mosley, cotto, clottey, margo, etc...
