    Does Floyd have a better win than a prime Sergey Kovalev?

    Floyd is uncharacteristically salty about Andre Ward fighting and then beating Sergey Kovalev. All controversy aside, is a win over a prime Sergey Kovalev, taking his 0 in the process, better than anything on Floyd's resume?

    No one cares
    Ward needs to sign that contract for the rematch

    Mayweather is leagues above Andre ward

      You have a point, it's hard to think of a better win, maybe Corrales or De La Hoya

        That's a really good question. I'm not sure if Floyd has a better singular win than a prime undefeated unified champion at his weight class.

          And most importantly

          I think the way Andre ward "beat" Kovalev should always be brought in for the debate

          Because of the way he struggled, and arguably lost, no one can bring up sergey Kovalev for ward as a bragging right for his resume

          Unless he rematches and clearly wins

            Tim Bradley has a better single win than both of these guys.

              I honestly have no idea. Great question. Waiting on a Larry or Kilgali response.

                Corrales, Hatton, and Canelo were all prime and undefeated. Floyd knocked out 2 of them and schooled the last one. KOvalev beat Ward imo.

                NSB use to be littered with Hatton fans. It was the typical Floyd is scared, Floyd would get knocked out, Hatton has the perfect style to win, etc... Floyd won and they diminished the win. A TKO victory from a supposed feather fisted fighter over a supposed iron chinned fighter. Nobody thought Floyd would win by stoppage. It wasn't a gifted sd.
