    He's claiming Floyd has sharp ridged teeth, lol. Little does he know that Floyd sports the finest Porcelain Veneers.

      As with most great fighters probably that his legacy woulda been stronger if he stayed retired.

            Remembered once a multi-millionaire who gone bankrupt for spending on strippers and sends an IRS Form 1099 on the strip clubs to support his tax deduction.

            Poor Floyd, he so poor he went back to Grand Rapids carrying only one set of TMT cap. Took a ride on a Greyhound with only $ 420 in his pocket!

              The fraud of the era. The best guy in his resume is Castillo and he lost the 1st fight. He was nothing after 135. From 2002 until 2015 his career reflects the best cherry picking in the sport.

              D level fighters

              Baldobum
              Berto
              Judah
              Mosley(dont pretend it was prime mosley he got a shot version that never accomplished anything after that loss)

              B Level fighters
              Hatton(140 fighter forced at 147)
              Marquez(Came up to divisions and was still cheated in the weight)
              De la hoya(Past prime. Never accomplished anything after Floyd beat him)
              Cotto(Past prime and past 2 horrific beatings. Never accomplished anything after Cotto beat him. Unless you count beating a cripple who went on to never fight again.)
              Canelita(Dehydrated to the point he created the 155 division and fought 5 times there until he finally had to give GGG his belt.)
              Pacquiao(Used PED's. Fought him 6 years too late after he had been KO'd)
              Maidana(The only thing Maidana achieved was beating the overrated broner and even then Floyd fought him to a draw in the 1st fight.Lost to Khan and Alexander)

              A Level Fighters
              None. Not a single prime atg and he also ducked stylistic nightmares like Margarito, and Wright.

              Some idiots are labeling him a top ten atg. What a joke.

                As a fighter who was so great that every single racist troll went out of there way to embrace him as a bum than to legitimately give him the props he truly deserved, even though they put him to a different standard that they did with other people.

                As far as his legacy? He will be remembered for taking tough fights when most high earners didn't wanna fight him. As a guy who would face whoever, a person who waited his turn so that he could finally dictate boxing like others before him and then get little to no credit no matter who he faced, even if said guys he was ducking ended up losing steam career wise themselves.

                Ability? Had a wide array of moves that he could use at will like the check hook, pull counter or leaping left hook...how great he was at operating up close and from far away. He was the quintessential perfect boxer. The only knock is he was far past his prime once the masses paid attention to him. All in all, what people need in a boxer. Wont be appreciated well beyond his old years.
