Floyd is top 10 all time in terms of pure skill.

Agree or disagree?

[blowblow]

in his own fantasy he is top 10...

[Monzon99]

his alleged pure skill did not inspire the self confidence to fight margarito 2006, cotto 2008, paul williams, winky wright, martinez, tszyu, casamayor, freitas, ggg at 154 or pac in 2009-2013.

floyd was a fraud pretender and an admitted coward.

I agree and I also put menayothin in top 10 ATG in terms of pure skill.

Agree or disagree?

Definitely agree. No fan of Floyd personally but in terms of technical skill he’s easily top 5 IMO.

Agree or disagree?

Disagree.

He wasn’t a complete fighter, he was defense first and a defense genius, but his attack was flawed.

Sorry if this triggers anyone who thinks he is an ATG skilled boxer.

What!

1. SRR

2. Ali

3. Duran

4. Sugar Ray L

5. Henry Armstrong

No way is Floyd more skilled than those 5.

Go and watch Homicide Hank fight and tell me he’s more SKILLED than Floyd.

Listen I have Armstrong #2 all time on my GOAT list, but that’s because of his iron chin, irresistible will, inexhaustible stamina and supreme toughness. He had solid fundamentals with his bob and weave style but he was nowhere near as skilled as Mayweather was.

Fair point.

Swap him for Willie Pep, I think he was more skilled.

He is very skillful for sure and he might be in the top 10 best ever for pure skill. I can't say for sure because I have not seen all the great boxers in history fight live or on film. I doubt anyone reading this has either.
