    And I bet that ko victim wasn't shot Rios.

      #1 Floyd not GOAT.

      #2 knockouts is one area of being a great champion. You don't have to score knockouts to be considered great

          To do what Floyd does is harder than knocking a guy out, a total nobody can knock a guy out, you cant school greats unless you are really special, to beat somebody for the entire 12 rounds takes way more than to beat them for 10 seconds.

          If Floyd stayed in the lower weights his KO percentage would be much higher, people forget he is a 130 guy beating much bigger guys, I havent looked but I would say that any fighter that began at 130 or less did not have the KOs at the higher weights like they did in the lower weights.

            They (Pac fans) know this and it kills them.

              True

              In fact, one can claim a lucky punch. Can someone be lucky over 12 rds ?

                Dominating or getting a ref stoppage or making your opponent quit is 100x better than a KO. Imo

                  When you beat a guy down and he quits in his corner, thats domination.

                  As for the topic Greatest, can some body define Greatest, I think there is a good number of guys that could beat Floyd and he could also beat them, I cant get my head around Greatest, there isnt one there are many.

                      Oh yeah he is along with 20 or so others, not much between those really elite fighters.
