    That's an accomplishment. Whether or not they would be journeymen is more opinionated (I still agree)

    But he beat them on a level playing field, he didn't have a time machine or anything. He was just as raw as them.
    That means it is time to redo the ATG list cause that is a damn joke dude cant fight,my son would clean his damn clock

      Yet he beat Gene Tunney And many others.

      I haven't seen him fight, sadly. I do believe a lot of people would be let down with the footage if it is one day discovered considering how amazing his resume is.

      As for the sparring footage, it's obviously not serious sparring He's not going to go all out on an ancient Philadelphia Jack O'Brien. More of an exhibition if anything.

        One day, when Floyd's skint and 40, and Roy Jones-ising it by taking and losing to fighters who couldn't hold his jockstrap in his prime, a truth is gonna hit you - about how you wasted all those years of your life defending this man.

        This man who doesn't, and won't, ever give a sh-t about you. You're a paycheck to him, a moron to make money off, plain and simple.

        And when that truth hits you, it's gonna hurt, Larry. It's really gonna hurt.

        But we warned you.

              My point is that you rank fighters differently.

              You rank off what you can see.

              I would rank off what they managed to accomplish in their time. I think it's a waste of time so I don't even do that. I just think it's a more scientific measure.

              H2H doesn't affect their ranking at all for me.

                      Hard to say that. U can't rank fighters based on h2h. Either way, grab is considered one of the best all time. There is no footage of him tho and it seems he was quite the dirty fighter. Lol. I don't think many writing in this thread would even appreciate his style. They can't even stand Andre Ward
