Floyd wins the longevity test, as he was the pound for pound no.1 boxer on the planet at 38 yrs of age, which as far as I can tell no other boxer in history can claim. Ironically the next highest on the list would be ALi who I felt was the best in the game until 35/36.
Ali beat better fighters, but comparitively Floyd beat bigger ones. FLoyd was being outweighed on the scales by 10 pounds on fight night, throughout his career even going back to his super featherweight days. A problem Ali rarely, if ever had to face, big George foreman outweighted ali by 4 pounds only, in the rumble in the jungle
Lol, like Liston ( sorry, he in his prime was able to KO more than 5 from current HWs prizefigthing TOP 10 ). Frazier and Foreman, and Shavers etc.Ali didn't fight better fighters.
Entertainment hall of fame.That is at a minimum 7 hall of famers.
You're telling me that Juan Manuel Marquez is not a legitimate hall of fame caliber fighter?Lol, like Liston ( sorry, he in his prime was able to KO more than 5 from current HWs prizefigthing TOP 10 ). Frazier and Foreman, and Shavers etc.

Floyd does have worse real resume than his uncles, not to talk about Pacman or Ali.
LOL.
ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS HELL ( HALL ) of FAME.hall of fame
I asked you to clarify what you meant, not repeat it.ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESS HELL ( HALL ) of FAME.
Ar you too selfish?I asked you to clarify what you meant, not repeat it.
And Ali wasn't?Ar you too selfish?
Your attention to fighters with non U.S origin too is beautiful, BTW.
YOU DIDN'T get that for me BOYS like Floyd Jr, Pac etc are ENTERTAINMENT BUSINESSMANS.

Fighting Canelo was seen as a big risk at the time .....not anymore?Sugar Ray Leonard suffered a detached retina, retired in '82, fought once in 5 years, challenged Hagler, beat him. This sort of thing ranks him and Ali above Floyd. When did Floyd ever overcome insurmountable odds? To be the greatest, you need to do great things, take great risks, not just have a pretty record.
No he wasn't. Most said he was too young and inexperienced for Floyd and that proved to be the case.Fighting Canelo was seen as a big risk at the time .....not anymore?
