    its not a credible list because of the blatant omission.
    pacquiao didn't make the list because the list was compiled by credible writers/historians and not by dumbass pacf@gs that infest nsb.

      I'd love to know how they came up with this point system how they decided who ranks where, personally I know its a load of crap and so should most.

      It seems like the list is heavily in favour of the time when boxing wasn't a world wide competed in sport.
      Look at the top ten and count the nationalities it sums it up in one.

I don't think there's ever been a fighter that won titles at 160, 168, 175, 200 and Heavyweight. That would have been monumental, it would've been great for his legacy IMO.
          Hard to say. I don't think it would have done THAT much but hard to too much hypothetical there to say for sure.

            pac has fought for 4 vacant titles and does not have 8 titles. he is all smoke and mirrors and the writers saw through it.

                  That likely have never competed in any sporting event in their life at a high level, all they do is talk and give an opinion just like you, me and many more their opinion isn't any superior.

                  If anything looking at that list they compiled it looks like a load of rubbish, there are names that should be on it but then there are names on it for the sake of trying to come across elitist.

                  I've used the example before and I'll use it again, football players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi, Eden Hazard they all are great footballers they'd fit into any era and they'd likely be ahead of the past eras best footballers, as time goes on things improve.
                  Facilities get much better, players become more skillful, faster, stronger I could go onto a football forum and say Ron Harris is the best CB ever and he makes the current best look like crap but we all know that is a lie.

                  These lists are just facilitated to make the past generation look better and these historians are the most biased bunch about.

                    This one was a real kick in the gut to those who spend so much time parroting garbage on here.

                      stop crying you insufferable ***. Credible people with their professional reputations on the line don't use the kind of backwards ass **** logic you and the other fools on NSB use to constantly discredit Floyd. Its cool, you don't like Floyd. That's fine. Just be an adult and have some semblance of rational thought.
