    To Pac's credit, he's fought everyone. And he's revenged some losses.

    Floyd "retired" and avoided prime Cotto, Margarito, Williams.

    I still think Floyd is the best of the era though.

    who's Floyd's best win?

      Probably Diego Corrales. Tough one.

          Best wins: Corrales, ODLH, total domination of Alvarez, KO Hatton.

          Not exactly on par with SRL's best wins, but still good when combined with no losses

            don't losses and draws count against a fighter as much as "best win" counts toward a fighter's assessment of greatest of our generation?

                it has to be chico.

                chico was a beast.

                super big for his division with power. like a 130 thomas hearns.

                the way floyd picked him apart and destroyed him was amazing.

                  and they say PAC fans are ******
                  And "lost" to Bradley. Some people love to pretend Pac actually lost that fight.

                    oh Ali lost a couple times...that nullifies all his wins against Foreman, Frazier, Norton etc


                    Dunn, please STFU

                      Nah, I disagree with that entirely. He's got a slew of excellent wins. You don't need to beat a prime HOF to qualify. Julio Cesar Chavez Sr. never did and he is a true ATG. It's a lot more than just that.
