    Name two PRIME good fighters in his own weight division that Floyd beat.

    Not faded (Mosley, Mitchell, Cotto, de la Hoya)
    Not from a smaller weight division (Hatton, JMM)
    Not coming off a loss (Judah)
    Not facing a jail term (Corrales)

    They don't exist.
    If those count as good for Vitali I'm sure the likes of Gatti counts as good for Floyd?

    Both clearly could have done more with their careers, but Floyd has fought better opponents.

        all the guys you mentioned for Vitali had big bellies and are all smaller(regardless of the weight division... )

        you're discreditting floyd for a few pounds advantage on hatton and jmm yet you think Vitali deserves huge credit from fighting smaller unfit bums

                  His power.
                  he hasn't got half the power of Tony Galento or David Tua, yet his middling power makes him an ATG? Idiot argument.


                  His iron chin, never been knocked down, never lost a decision, his only two losses coming by way of injury, ahead on the scorecards vs Byrd and Lewis.
                  he was injured because Lewis injured him. YOu seem to arguing that HAD LEWIS NOT BEEN IN THE RING landing punches then vitali would have won. Idiot argument.

                  And yes, superheavyweight champ Vitali lost to a middleweight. That's the epitome of being a **** HW champion.


                  One of the strongest hw's ever, one of the most intimidating too
                  Another double lie, hes not strong or intimidating, and that's not even a basis for ranking as an ATG. Idiot argument.

                  Always in great shape
                  hes an ATG because he's fit? Then Dave McCauley is an ATG too. Idiot argument.#


                  there's never been a champ his size in such an athletic shape, only his lil' bro.
                  hes an ATG because he is TALL! Oh wow.

                  Possibly dumbest post ever written.

                      Nope. Losing to the 2 best fighters you fought and then retiring then coming back when the era has gone to crap is not ATG worthy. Anyone out of the Heavyweight top 15 or so shouldn't be considered an ATG.
