    For Floyd to even be in that discussion (Top 5 he is already top 30) he would have to beat Amir, Pac, AND go up to 154 and beat Sergio Martinez.

      puto


      He is a bum and tbh it would be a dent in Floyds magnificent legacy but seeing as lots of trolls think he'd beat Floyd it would help work in favour of his resume & then people can't say crap such as ''Floyd ducked Khan & ran into retirement, Khan would of beaten him blah blah blah''

            Bradley? Bradley is a can that will be exposed if he ever grows a pair. Pacquaio is ten times the fighter Bradley is.

            Martinez? Could he even make 154 (He walks around at a good 175-180 so not a small middleweight by any means) & if he did people would only say he was weight drained.

              This question follows the same vein as the "asterisk in baseball" type problem. We live in a far more advanced era than the one from which boxing came. Now, we have media coverage, hype, television specials, more divisions, and more organizational champions. Is it more impressive for a guy to have titles in 5 weight divisions, or to have 200 fights in a career? It's a tough sell no matter which side you argue.

              To me, Floyd is an all timer, yes (and I despise the dude), but definitively not in the GOAT discussion. Too many questions surround him in terms of "should have's." IF he beats the guys that the public at large wants him to fight, he solidifies a seat in the top 5, probably. But, if you are going to argue "staying in the game too long" against guys like RJJ, you have to look at the concept of "ducking the dangerous competition," for Floyd. Again - not JUST my opinion (because it is), but also the opinion of a substantial part of boxing's fanbase.

                After all, 90% of his opponents are cherrypicks, right?
                Nah, if he would have beaten victor the right way i would have gave him credit, just like i did with the mosley fight.

                    Well he's pretty much done everything else has he not? Pacquaio is the only fighter out there IMO worthy of even sharing a ring with Floyd. If Khan wants a shot I recommend he earns it & gets some credible wins at 147 before shooting his mouth off like he is anywhere near in Floyds league.
