Im not trying to get into fights with anyone LOL and Im not saying Im the king of the board or anything...just giving an opinion based on what I see and think and interpret, thats all...Floyds a VERY GOOD FIGHTER...I think people often hate the way he acts outside the ring etc and they use it against him...but u MUST differentiate between the two...

LOL at iceman. we get it. you try not too laugh out loud how silly this floyd fan boys are, thinking floyd is all that. It has that effect on TRUE boxing fans such as ourselves.

Yes. Both Pac and Floyd are. They just won't be as high as some on that list, unless they fight each other or Martinez.

Right now, Floyd is in my Top 30 just barely. If he beats Martinez and Khan, but fails to beat Pac, he'll be close to my top 20. If he beats Pac, or vice-versa, he's top 20.

Ali, Leonard, Robinson, etc. If he beats Pacquiao, you can start mentioning him with them. Until than, he's around where Whitaker is. All-Time Great, the real Fighter of the Decade, but not quite as great as Ali, Leonard, Robinson.

Is the sky blue? Is the Earth round?

Anyone who doesn't have him in the top 10 without question should never be allowed to post in any boxing forum, ever again. Ever.
It's not even debatable. Is there some competition being held for the worst threads ever? I have seen 3 over the last 24 hours that are clear contenders.

[B]I cant exactly see Floyd in the top 5 spot just yet but, love him or hate him, the guy is VERRRRRRRRRYYYYY GOOOD...I would say at 147 he is in DEEP with the Leonard's and the Hearns' etc and probably doesnt get past them...he wouldnt come up to 147 if guys like that were there, he would know his boundaries I'd assume...so many fighters today move up and down the weight classes that very few of them are naturals at the weights they fight at...for me, though, regardless of all that, you have to give Floyd his due...he's fought some very, very solid guys and beaten most of them BY WIDE MARGINS..[/B]

This. Well said. Great post.

Exactly. Respect and admire him for his defensive wizardlry and his superior skill.
You don't have to like him as a person. It shouldn't even be a factor.

Back pedaling on what?

I agree with everything he said. How was I ever owned? lol.
Because he isn't in his particular list on the same place as mine does not mean we disagree. If anything he owned you.
Nice try.
