      But at welterweight, there is only 1 fighter he should have fought but didn't & that's Margarito. At 154 there's only 1 fight that will without a doubt define his legacy imo, that's Martinez. Other than that he is an atg, just not high as his current fans care to admit.
      Who has Martinez beat to be considered Floyds legacy fight?
      Just stop.

      And is Martinez legacy complete without fighting Floyd?

      And who did he not fight from 130-154?

      Answers please.....

        Yea you were avoiding it because it took until now for you to answer and I asked that over an hour ago~


        Floyd career and legacy are just fine, even someone like you who hates him has to compare him to Ray Robinson to make him look bad~ that is the ultimate compliment~

            Um, no, im replying back to like 4 different posters, Im sorry I didnt have the time to hit the back button and go through 3 pages to see that you wrote that. And I gave you a logical answer, and now your acting like you've won some battle for Floyd's heart. Im using Ray Rob as an example, because he is the GOAT. We're discussing that fact that Floyd is not the GOAT by any stretch of the imagination, so why not use the real GOAT as an example as to why Floyd cant hold his jock strap.

              I'm not sure this makes much sense. Roy Jones wasn't the greatest in any of the traditional divisions either. Neither was Manny Pacquiao. So there legacies aren't secure?

                  LOL. Your acting like im making excuses for why my light bills arent paid. Thats a Floyd fan boys problem. You take boxing forum debates and apply them to real world applications. The real question is, do you have a job? And at what fast food chain?

                      Your light bills aren't paid? Sounds like you are the one with employment problems.

                      Good luck with getting your lights back on~
