    I recognize Robinson but personally don't like his era. And who's made the largest impression, Ali or Robinson?

    nobody ever beat Marciano, curious as to why to feel he doesn't deserve such recognition. I don't care for Calslappy at all, I think the last good heavyweights were among Holyfield, Tyson, and the returning George Foreman.

    Brian Nielsen is nothing, he fought bums and lost to the only real champs on his record.

        SRR gets more recognition then Marciano and ALI.. If being the consensus best lb for lb fighter of all time isn't recognition, I don't know what is.. He is RANKED ABOVE EVERYONE in the ATG list... What do you mean by recognition? SRL is also more popular then guys like Rocky Marciano and was one of the most recognizable figures of his era..... Why I am I telling you this, you clearly are ******. Clearly, if you think that dude in your avatar got any sort of thing to brag about, you must be delusional as well.

          I said word for word that I recognize him, and I also said I personally dont care for his era. He is considered by many much greater than Ali and that's fine with me, I don't ride a bandwagon as many on this site do. I'm allowed to favor whatever era of fighting I personally enjoyed the most and am not ****** for doing so. That dude in my avatar is me, because I'm not hiding behind a false image and work to improve.

              nope. only pacquiao.

              his fighter of the year awards these decade, his lineal titles, his help boost boxing's popularity back in the mainstream will all be disregarded.

              all because he refused to take a test no one else in his sport has to take.

              oh, and people will give floyd the fighter of the decade award by default

                      A) He already agreed to the testing

                      B) Anyone who is not delusional is already questioning Floyds greatness due to his obvious refusal to fight Manny

                      C) Anyone who is not delusional is already questioning Floyds greatness due to the fact that he will not face fighters Manny has already destroyed, such as Cotto, Margarito, and Clottey.

                      D) Anyone who is not delusional is already questioning Floyds greatness due to the fact that Mannys wins are much more impressive than Floyds when it comes to there common opponents. They have had four common opponents, Floyd has beaten one more easily, that being JMM. He outboxed JMM more easily than Manny did, however Manny put JMM on his ass four times at a weight much more natural for JMM, JMM stepped up two weight classes to fight Floyd and Floyd only put him down once. In addition, Manny has vastly improved his boxing skills since the last time he faced JMM, the third time is and will be the charm. They both dominated SSM, the primary difference being that SSM hurt Floyd early, stood and traded with Floyd the entire fight, and may have been hurt a few times as a result, while Manny was never hurt by SSM, Manny hurt SSM early, then SSM backed up the entire remainder of the fight and that is the only reason he lasted 12 rounds. The other two common opponents were DLH and Hatton, whom respectively lasted ten rounds and twelve rounds against Floyd, but respectively retired on his stool and only made it two rounds against Manny.

                      E) Floyd who?
