    Steward: Well armstrong, Ali SRR you need to consider him at that level

    Bert Sugar (Modern day fighter hater): Hes gotta be inside top 20.

        Did Floyd retire off of Hatton? Then have the nerve to say he had done all he needed to do in boxing?

        If you ask Floyd, a win over Hatton is good enough to call it a career....

          I don't think this at all, I just want to know if he beats Pac will his legacy be sealed?

            I want to ask you how many title defenses of zoos IBF title did hatton make. hatton was living of the zoo win and refused to fight the best at 140. paulie was never the best at 140 or even ranked top 3 at 140

            nate campbell or juan diaz was the obivous choice for team pac moving up to 135 if they were serious about figthing the best but they weren't they wanted a weak champ to claim 4 titles in 4 weight classes

            once they got their 4th title they decided to fight the weakest figher at 140 who was ricky hatton who had a garbage IBO belt at the time.

            should I continue
            Too many. He ended up fighting fighters like Urango and Castillo because of that piece of trash belt. But Hatton and Malignaggi were the clear 1 and 2 of the division for the longest time by every boxing website and magazine. It went 1.Hatton 2.Malignaggi 3.Torres 4.Witter. Torres lost to Holt and Bradley did not beat Witter until training camps for the Hatton/Malignaggi fight were underway.


            Juan Diaz was the plan for Pacquiao at 135 but wanted a tuneup to see if his power carried at 135 before a unification bout but Nate Campbell put a dent in that plan so they went ahead and took 15mil to fight Oscar. You as a floyd fan who defends the "business" side of the sport would be both a dumbass and a hypocrite to call that ducking.

                Doesn't matter what you think...It's a fact! Deal with it. Life is much more important than putting it all into an idol that has no clue you exist....

                And the answer is yes. If he beats Pac his legacy is sealed. If not though, he still has some work to do. The fear for you Floyd clowns should be, what if Cotto is not around? And Paul Williams stands as the only option?.....

                  You must be mis reading what im saying....I never said Mayweather's legacy was sealed. So I was asking you since you think Mayweathers legacy isnt sealed and obviously Pacquiao's is sealed: do you think Mayweather can seal his legacy by defeating the #1 P4P fighter in the world? Is that difficult to answer?

                    Why don't you read a little harder...If that isn't to difficult.

                    I answered the question...

                    Calm down, and read slowly.
