    really? those fights made you think he's the greatest boxer in the history of the sport? those guys arent even close to wilfredo benitez skill level. and he had trouble with a old cotto. ray leonard didn't even catch a nose bleed from marvin hagler.

    diego fight was a great performance, but diego's just caught a case and got of jail before the fight.

            If that's the case, no matter who Floyd beats from here on out, you can say "but XYZ". Hypothetically speaking, if Floyd beats GGG at 160, you can say "but look what old Cotto did to him at 154, Floyd's victory over GGG doesn't count". So me, as the debater, it makes me question you as the TS and forces me to ask the question "what's the point in debating" if regardless of who we say, you'll shoot down the idea.

            That said, this version of Cotto with Freddie Roach would be the favorite against Canelo in my book.

                A thriller? not sure what fight you were watching, and no one wanted to see a rematch.

                After that when he gave Dinamita a boxing lesson.
                lol yeah, the pre-roided lightweight forced up two divisions. Get outta here.


                OP, none of Mayweather's fights made me feel that way because it doesn't reflect reality.


                Pacquiao v De La Hoya, Cotto and Hatton showed me we were watching something special. Genuine jaw-dropping viewing.

                Same for Golovkin v Macklin and Geale, although the jury very much remains out on him.

                  The TS is slurping up Floyds junk too much for me but I knew he was special when he put that beatdown on Gatti. Gatti is not a good fighter, I never thought he was but Floyd was putting on show that night.

                    I've seen plenty of greater fighters. None of floyds fights meet the OPs question but his PB performance for me was Corrales

                      im with you. i just dont see the greatest boxer ive ever seen when i watch any of floyds fights. im trying to see what fight people saw and against which opponent to make them think that. i dont see it.
