    Stacking a hall of famer to your name is great, but if the guy is 35 years old and out of their prime for a long time what does it mean?

    The point is that Roy fought the top guys in all weightclasses from MW to HW and fought guys when he was expected to.

    How is Floyd undoubtedly greater than Roy? That's an incredibly silly thing to say. As I said, Roy achieved something far far harder to achieve whilst beating multiple HOFs/ATG in their PRIME. Most of Floyd's HOF wins equate to when RJ beat Mike McCallum. That's the honest truth.

    Holyfield lost to all of the best guys he fought? Ok I learned something new today. Floyd had more longevity than Holyfield? Dude, you need to check facts before you start saying these things.

    Holyfield is the greatest CW of all times and probably top 6-7 heavyweight of all times. Which division can floyd say that in? SPW maybe?

    I think you should look through Holyfield's resume. It's far better than Floyd's.
    Wait, that doesnt even make sense. Mc Callum was shot when he fought Roy. Absolutely shot. Pac wasnt shot when floyd fought him, neither was Cotto, neither was Hatton, netiher were any of the fringe guys like Castillo, Corrales and Hernandez. The only prime atg/hof fighter that Roy beat is Toney. If there are others, i'd like to hear them.

      And PS: Floyd has the most world championships because there are the most world championships in existence today. Historically, just stop defending Floyd on this ******ed argument. If he fought in Duran's time, he wouldn't have that "record".


      Berto though.
      Berto.
      Really, five? Thought it was four. Trying to figure out which one Im missing.

        Flyweight, FW, SFW, LWW, and WW.

        Lineal WW champion right now. More symbolic then anything, but Manny is still clearly the #1 WW in the world.
        A unification with Thurman/Garcia would be huge though

            Timothy Bradley in the third fight for the Vacant WBO, he is number 1 and Bradley is number 2 while Kell was number 3. So the Lineal title was on the line.

              Interesting. Says a lot about the guy who beat him right before he won that crown.

                If Floyd didn't exist, Pacquiao would've been Lineal...? Not sure what you're getting at.
                Floyd was 1st, Pacquiao 2nd, Bradley 3rd..
                Floyd retired, so Pacquiao & Bradley moved up a spot & fought for the vacant Lineal..

                I had Pacquiao over Money, but my opinion's beside the point. More punches. More aggressive. Harder punches.
                Great win by Floyd, 6 years after it would've been arguably the greatest win of all time. 6 years after it would've legitimately solidified him as debatably the GOAT. Instead, he'll still miss a prime, A-level fighter on his resume(let alone ATG).

                Pacquiao atleast has that on his resume in Barrera circa 2003... I'm done here. StayDazed, my friend.
