But as time goes on, his legacy is going to turn into a legend of being untouchable.
That little bit of Mayweather beating him will be there and when people think "he wasn't in his prime". They will then see Mayweather was even older than him, making it an even greater feat.
Floyd fans getting desperate now. People can see Floyd was beaten 3 or 4 times so how can he be a legend of being untouchable you think Floyd s Bruce Lee or something?
That little bit of Floyd beating Pac with iv will always be there with Pac s injured shoulder hovering about also. So will the not giving rematch bit and beating jmm used goods. There's lots of things there that Floyd wishes wasnt. like fighting at home all the time, he wished it wasn't there.
Pac being more worn than Floyd will also be there and Floyd looking crap at 38 whilst Pac s longevity of still doing it at 41 will also be there. Which suggests Pac s just greater
Floyd fans getting desperate now. Mcgirt thinks pac s greater just like most people do who don't post anonymously under guide of anonymity in bedroom. Why so salty, you'd think floyd having win over Pac would keep them happy? Obviously not!Last edited by hugh grant; 07-14-2020, 07:27 PM.

To say Manny fought everybody is hyperbole. Or did he fight Paul Williams and Zab Judah and I miss it? I also don't recall Manny not fighting people on his terms once he reached a certain level.
His point about being a multiple division champ makes sense. He speaks as if Floyd is not a multiple division champion. I think he is trying to say winning titles in 8 divisions is more impressive than winning in 5 divisions. Just say that.
When I see these comments, the people talk as if Floyd never defeated any HOF level fighters or that he wasn't an immensely talented fighter. They seem to suggest Floyd was just average and made money because of some gimmick, like a Butterbean.
Floyd spent many years as the consensus #1 or #2 P4P fighter in the world. His resume is such that he is ranked ahead of Manny in every credible poll of ATG fighters where experts are polled.
Most credible list have Manny over Floyd and rightly so.
Just because you beat someone(in a weak fashion at that)don’t always make you greater just ask Jake Lamotta, Shane Mosley, Frankie Randall etc.

We know that Floyd won a unanimous decision over Pac, the one time they faced each other.
It's also a fact that FM was 50-0, while Pac has lost 7 times in 70 fights.
But you also need context, like both were past their primes when they fought, Floyd's career was carefully programmed by 2 professional fighters from day 1, Manny has fought all over the world etc.
My point is there's an argument to be made that, though Floyd was more technically skillful , maybe Manny was the better fighter.
I'm playing devil's advocate here because arguing opinions is something I try to avoid. :-)

Originally posted by hugh grant View PostAll these Floyd fans saying in their opinion Floyd s legacies better? Pac is a higher ATG, that isn't my opinion, it's fact. It's not about Floyd s fans opinions.
The higher the ATG you are, means the more desirable your legacy is.
If Floyd was a higher AT G than he is, buddy mcgirt would prefer Floyd s legacy, as would hopkins. They want what Pac has, which is a higher ATG standing!

I think the people will probably compare floyd to menayothin in the future on who has the better legacy between them.
