    my thoughts exactly, any good fighter can go undefeated if they're not willing to fight the guys that may give them a loss. cotto beat mosley and could have retired undefeated, like floyd, instead he fought the best WW challenger in the world at the time. and then clottey who was easily a top 5, and then manny. thats how a true champion goes about his career.

        If mayweather fought and defeated mosley pac cotto and williams he STILL would not be greater than Ali. No fighter in this era will be greater than Ali. Thats not a realistic standard to hold someone to.

            i dont think of heavyweights to highly so i do think floyd, chavez, toney, duran, sweet pea, hopkins, finto lopez, ray leanord, robinson, marquez, morales, pac and many others are p4p more skilled and better fighters than heavyweights which includes ali

            but what makes ali great in my opinion is that he was willing to step in the ring and fight best from his division and not bait highly rated light heavy to heavyweight fights and claim he is the greatest of all time.

            unlike floyd who has not fought a rated welter weight since late 2006
            its 2010 people. floyd fans, pac surely deserves the blame for the fight not happening and ducking random blood test. pac has no logical excuse for not taking random blood test.

            but i repeat floyd critism of being a cherry picker was right fully earned since he has not fought a rated welter weight since late 2006.
