        Why isn't Duran higher
        I guess he didn't put Leonard in his top ten cause he knocked out Hearns

                  Emmanuel was one of Floyd's biggest haters along with Larry Merchant. Even when Floyd was young.

                    Good list. I wouldn't personally put Pacquiao ahead of Roberto Duran though. Duran may be top 5 honestly and I'm not sure Manny is top 10
