Why does Floyd have to win 7 titles to be great?

Floyd is the Number 1 WW by everybody.
If he retires undefeated with a win over Pac he passed him on my list for what its worth.

Originally posted by IMDAZED View PostNah man, can't say that. If Floyd beats the consensus #1 pound for pound fighter in the world to retire undefeated? That's the kind of win that catapults him.

Originally posted by O.S.I.R.I.S View PostI guess to each his own. I look at the work they put in their careers as to how I judge fighters ATG wise, but I can see your argument. I say this because Sandler beat Pep not once but 3 times and still isn't above willie on the ATG list. IMO Pac has accomplish way more than Floyd but if Floyd can somehow win the MW title, get another fighter of the year etc...then I would put him ahead of Pac.

But, by most people Duran ranks higher than Leonard. Duran beat Leonard and then lost 2x, then Duran also lost to Benitez, Hearns, and Hagler. Leonard beat all those 3 guys. And, again beat Duran 2x. Yet still most people rank Duran higher than Leonard.
So H2H match ups does not decide for me who is greater.
I hold Pac higher than Floyd all time. And, I would have to see in what kind of fashion does Floyd beat Pac for me to rank him higher than Pac. And, if Pac beats Floyd he would not move that much more spots to me either. But, it depends on the fashion. Either way a win from either guy would be the best win of their careers.

Manny has Fighter of the Decade and also has a better resume.
To me, just beating Manny isn't enough. He has to accomplish a few more things to get on Pac's level (accomplishment wise).
Also what would be Ironic, and something you guys might not wanna hear, is that they could possible give the Lineal/Ring WW title to Manny if Shane beats Berto and Manny beats Shane. That would be funny as hell, and people wiould be pissed, but Manny would have the WBO/WBA/WBC belts at WW.
