Floyd can only be greater than Pacquiao if he gets in that ring and fights Pacquiao

    that's the result i was leaning towards, but i learned to never count out manny.

    i love both guys, but floyd has more to lose coming into the fight. he would win a lot of respect just fighting pac, but losing to him would bring more criticism to floyd. he would be the favorite coming in and all of boxing experts are expecting him to win.

    pac's legacy is already cemented, but a win over floyd would bring him like 10-15 spots on the ATG list.

        the only way floyd would be greater is if he breaks pac's record of 7 divison titles , 4 lineal, 3 foty and one fotd....if he matches up all those and breaks one , he's greater , thats the only way imo!

          pac's done so much already.

          but if floyd wants to cement his own legacy and at least be closer in the ATG list to pac, he has to beat him.

          floyd is ranked high based on skills and what he did in the lower weights. having that one defining fight against pac would be great for his legacy, but not quite enough to put him higher than pac on the ATG list.

            in terms of accomplishments pac will be ranked higher then floyd even if floyd beats his a$$.in terms of boxing skills floyd is just at a diffrent level and will be know as the best boxer in this era.

                If Floyd takes on & beats the winner of the Punisher Martinez(although I don't think that's possible)people are gonna have to take a long hard look of who's really greater!!This would be 2 fights in a row that Floyd has fought & beaten better,higher ranked fighters in a the same division that both have campained in!!Besides we know that Floyd is capable of letting his opponent come in at the limit!!

                  So it has nothing to do with who you beat or the circumstances surrounding the contest its all about the belt , a win is a win so long as the hype is good ,,,, somehow I knew that with you fanboys all along ,,,,, he is going for another legit belt fancy that lol

                    Bob and Freddie won't risk the Pacman against Floyd.

                    We'll have to wait and see if Pacman calls out Floyd after he beats Margo.

                      These two piss me off so much, exactly why I haven't talked about either of them as of late. It's just really freaking annoying that both of them are doing this to the fans of boxing.
                      boxing fans know whose camp really wanted the fight to happen.
