If Floyd was a cherry picker then what are your current fighters picking??

[LetOutTheCage]

Why is Larry triggered this time? Seems to make threads like this on a regular basis

[Larry the boss]

You did incorrectly label him TBE, no one in the current era is TBE. Period. No one sensible can dispute that Pac has the better resumé too and he's still around, I don't even really care for him or his fanbase too.

when have I ever called him TBE??

PAC obviously has better resume but with losses. Some critics try make more of losses than they should do. Especially since the person with losses took more risks and wasn’t as calculated and methodical outside ring.
Fighters considered greater than floyd have more losses than pac so if it don’t harm them why should anyone think losses harm pac.? There’s countless reasons which contribute to a loss and it’s rarely because you aren’t good enough

Floyd fans are ****** for this reason. Any fighter with an extensive undefeated record has always cherrypicked to a degree or was lucky enough to have weak competition around at the time.

Haven't done it here but I'm certain you have before and he's no ATG either. As much as Joe Calzaghe is who apart from two fights against top notch opponents can't hold a candle to the rest who are up there as ATGs.

[SN!PER]

When Canelo is awarded FOTD...

Mayweather becomes the first boxer with wins over two FOTDs.

Floyd is #1 in the 21st century so far, and probably top 10 in the ATG list.

lol....thats your opinion but historians and every ranking list imaginable disagree

[Evil_Meat]

I didn't say all of those guys are Prime, I said Prime A-level fighter.

A-level fighter means that an absolute Elite fighter that can do great things. Such as coming back from a loss, to do great things and continue to be a top fighter, winning titles in multiple classes (winning LEGIT titles from LEGIT opponents, not broner)

Corrales was not an A-level fighter. After losing to Floyd, he never separated himself from other fighters to be the top dog of a weight class, and was repeatedly beaten till Cottey finished him.

Canelo
Cotto
Judah
Manny
Marquez

They were not in their primes, Cotto got his ass beaten already 3 and 4 years prior to Mayweather, Canelo was 23 years old and was greatly weight drained by the 152 catchweight, which he exhibited in the weigh in.

Marquez was a 135 lightweight that jumped to 147, and was infact the jump too big of a step that he had to go back to 135 and stayed there for a couple of years, and also it was a catchweight that Floyd did not honor.

Manny Pacquiao as great as he is, was a shadow of his former self, he was 36 years old that was knocked out cold already from Marquez and was already 5 years passed his prime.

Corrales was completely shot when he fought Clottey at like 150 lbs and if you think otherwise you're ignorant or blind.

corrales-prime
castillo-prime
judah-prime
manny-younger and still winning titles
canelo-unified champ-still on top
Cotto-younger went on to win mw title and defend it
Jmm-went on to ko Manny


stop making excuses not to give this man credit

Anyone who doesn't give floyd credit is a joke. But some of these are a stretch. Judah was about 5 years past his prime, just lost to a scrub in Baldomir and never won a big fight again. Earlier you mentioned he beat p4p #10 Guerrero. If that was true that's embarrassing for whoever put that list together. P4P status for beating Aydin and Berto? Castillo you already know the criticism.

Corrales was prime, cotto wasn't prime but it was a good win, Canelo isn't as good as he is now but it was still an impressive schooling, JMM was a good win bc of how thoroughly he beat him, manny was not prime but I think floyd would've won in 2009-2010, just wish it happened then
