In my opinion Floyd is now an ATG top 20 lock

    Not a lock, although with a win over Pacquiao and possibly a belt at 160 he has a very good case.

      I'm sure you're a big fan of SRR and Pep, a few two minutes youtube vids did the trick huh?
      Actually its not that hard to compile footage, research and to actually read.

      I have compiled a Top 50 you can go through my post history. Assuming a poster is not entitled to have an opinion on Pep and Srr because we didnt see them live is dumb as hell.

        No it isn't. But assuming you can determine an individuals tier of greatness based upon words the wind carries; that however is "dumb as hell".

          I never said that did I? I just assumed you hadn't done the research to throw around statements like Floyd is top 25, which I was wrong for since I don't know where you're knowledge of the sport is at...my bad if I'm sounding like a snobby know it all, I've been arguing a lot lately with casual fans who know nothing about boxing LOL

              top 16 overall and the greatest based on skill imo. pac has done more to be ranked higher in my opinion, but a win for may or pac over the other puts them in the top 5. IMO.
