      You're welcome. Floyd fought ten more times than Ray.

      Leonard also fought MASSIVELY superior competition. Brah.
      Floyd still has more KOs and besides that...the way Mancini is talking like Ray has a prime Tyson KO %. Either way ,Ray and Floyd are in the same vicinity.

          the greatest in my opinion of all time and he had his prime ripped from him at the age of 26...imagine if went on to beat Pryor,curry on his resume as well. We have not seen a fighter like him since

            mancini is top 1,500 p4p all-time. floyd is top 5. if floyd fought back then, he would have fought SRL, Hearns, and Hagler because you had to in order to make good money.

                For the record, I do believe Hearns would have dominated Floyd at 147. Hearns was too lanky, too tall, too precise.

                  Starting at 130 and WW being his 4th weightclass, where did Ray and Hearns start and finish, lots of size involved.

                  Mancini said Manny was in the same boat as Floyd and that Floyd beats Manny any time.

                    So your claim is SRL and Tommy Hearns were "too big" for Floyd, then?

                    Really bro?

                      Floyd's record in actual fights is 50-0. Floyd's record in NSB mythical fights is 0-500.

                      If as the NSB poll results suggested Torrecampo beats Floyd in a mythical fight then why is there any need to discuss a mythical fights with ATG's, HOF's or just regular very good boxers when all are much, much better than Torrecampo?

                      Looks like the only way Floyd can ever win a fight is to get in the ring and actually fight the guy.
