Floyd's legacy fight/s. Who is it and why?

[Benny Leonard]

Pretty much 130 lb mayweather... those fights.

But specifically Corrales...Gatti...

I mean he wrecked Gatti unlike anyone ever has...that **** propelled him into the spotlight.. bad boy style

The rest after that was just flourishes.

Oh the Hatton win was pretty dope too until Pac came along and trumped it.

Oscar messed up Gatti bad before Floyd did.

And Hatton should be noted: he did pop Hatton's cherry.

The thread is not about best performance. Floyd merely exposed Diego. And Diego (RIP), I highly doubt it wouldn't make it to HOF.

How did he expose Diego?

That a Great Fighter on Floyd's level can beat him?

That fight wasn't even close and they had to stop it because of how many times Diego went down....but kept getting back up.

Diego was tall, powerful, and knocking MFers out on his way to Floyd. After the that style beating...who knew how he was going to be. But he came back and put up some good wins.

What did a Past Prime Morales expose with Pac when he beat him the first time around...and Raheem expose with Morales before Pac beat him after?
Or the fights with JMM which are debated by many?

Many fights/fighters we can talk about.


Fighters get exposed on some level...it happens.

floyd resume is solid but it is an afterthought compare to pacquiao.

He said you are ****** and a MORON.

Then why make a thread if you don't want the answers? Dude is regarded highly because he has fought many good opponents and made them look average. Maybe he can fight a great one in Manny. Mike Tyson was a great fighter but wasn't able to pull out great "Legacy wins". We consider him great for dominating good opponents.

hatton was barely hanging on with Lazcano @147. it was clear that he doesnt beong there.

Floyds did good against the opponents he did fight earlier in his career and that is why he was no1 at the time. and it got him to a certain level. But PBF got too big for his boots and said he was the GOAT.

Im afraid to say his resume didnt make him even close to the GOAT, and that is when he became annoying.

Corrales and Castillo were good opponents, but people will say his best achievement was past it DLH, and only by the skin of his teeth. He cant get credit for beating Hatton at 147 because Pac beat him at 140.

Oscar messed up Gatti bad before Floyd did.

True...

Oscar overpowered Gatti though..with his size. and had miles of reach on him. Plus Oscar ate some shots.

I view the Floyd victory as more amazing, because Gatti couldn't hit him at all..and still got massacred.

Floyd beat the undefeated Hatton..

Pac beat the Floyd's leftovers Hatton.

and I'm a fan of both fighters, but thats just true.

Same with DLH.

But this recent win over Cotto is amazing, and puts Manny at the top.

Yeah I'd say the Corrales fight was great, also I thought the Judah fight was a great one, the Judah that stepped in against Mayweather was at the top of his game and pushed Mayweather to show what he can do.
