    And come on....The guy knows how to make money, not regular money, we talking crazy money...

    If you want to look at it from this point of view.. 46-0, some many titles, and mad money...Then yes he is TBE..

    You cant compare him to older boxers, get up withthe times guys!!!!!


    i promised myself not to give red K today...you made me lie

      Floyd isn't enough of a ring warrior to be TBE.

      Sam Langford who started at lightweight was shorter and has a shorter reach than Floyd, yet he fought everybody, including heavyweights. Henry Armstrong and Harry Greb were fearless warriors who fought anybody, including bigger opponents. Roberto Duran went up to middleweight and defeated Iran Barkley without demanding a catch weight.

      Floyd had Saul Alvarez drain down to 152 instead of fighting him at 154. Perhaps the weight didn't make a difference, but the catch weight showed Floyd lacks the courage of those great boxers.
      Not true Mr. Röhm.
