Muhammad Ali had his victory against Joe Frazier in Manila.

Sugar Ray Leonard had his dramatic come from behind win against Thomas Hearns.

Which of Floyd's fight against a certified all-time great - who was still in his prime and fighting without a weight and/or age handicap - made him the legendary all-time great fighter that he is?

When he fought Baldomir. It was so great the people in the ring watching knew he won already so they all left the arena even before it ended. It was so great that he cried afterwards and announced retirement.

lol. trick question. You ain't gettin me!
but his Corrales performance was pretty damn good.

sad to say......Floyd doesn't have a single fight vs. any ATG's. Chico was a good champ and heck of a fighter...but nowhere near any ATG list.

For me it's between Diego and Hatton.

It was supposed to be Corrales but he ended up getting being a bust. So I'll say Hatton who is definitly no all time great but its the best Floyd ever fought.
