I have no problem with it. He was a great boxer. I'm not sure what fighters are on their belts now, but, Floyd is deserving.

Without a doubt top 10 to me. I dont think i could even make a top 5. Its simply not as cut and dry as other sports.

The criteria you use. Wins and losses, resume's, eyeball test. Do you say "who beats who" in a fight. I don't like that argument, because fighters today would dominate fighters of the past based on size, speed, training methods, etc.

I just know that Floyd is boxing's singular spectacle with no equal. He made the most money, brought the most attention to himself, and it NEVER got the best of him, NEVER, no alcohol benders, no drugs, smacked a few bitches, spent a summer in jail lol, no real slip in his mastery, whenever the lights were brightest, he was always masterful. And when people told him he couldnt have what he wanted thru or in boxing, he always proved them wrong. And in his way he always looked dominant. Never before was there a fighter who could be hit good 3 or 4 times in a fight, and then people are so desperate for a negative on the winner that they hound and bandy over the few punches and then shit gets bigger and bigger and people believe dude was on queer street from them. And if he was hit just one more time....we'd all finally get to see the 0 fade away and return as a 1. The rules of boxing, the rules of society say that THAT GUY has to lose, it has to end bad for him. So I put him top 10, even 5. Because no guy before him taking the gravity into account can make that claim. Floyd pimped the game better than any before him.  And it seems impossible to me that we'll see this again. Another Jordan, another Lebron, Another whoever the fuck, is more possible to me than another Floyd.
