Which current active fighter has a more sound legacy than PBF?

I believe if Floyd retires after delahoya fight win lose or draw his legacy will not be that profound to be considered in the top ten greatest of all time, he definetly has potential to be on that list but would have to fight for a little longer and more quality opponents.

I think fighters like bernard hopkins, roy jones, Barrera, and oscar(if he wins the PBF fight) have a more sound legacy than floyd

OLDH
Wright
B-Hop
Barrerra
Holyfield

Sadly, that's about it.

This man dominated a decade (90's) he will have a greater legacy. Oscar has to many questionable decisions.

I'd have to go with ODLH and maybe Roy Jones...PBF hasnt loss and he is dominating,so I dont see anyone topping him anytime soon.I also dont understand people saying that he has to fight Cotto,Hatton,Mosley,Margo,etc...b4 he retires to solidify his status.Lets be real...none of them can beat PBF.I say fight DLH then Hatton then hang em up.

Toney, Pac and Mosley up there with him if not better. Floyds an excellent fighter but great fights make great fighters an Floyd should take note(and Calzaghe) all this bullshit about retiring after Oscar how can he godown as a ten GOAT he shouldn't be top 20 if he retires on the 6th of May.

It sounds to me like your downgrading him for dominating everyone.PBF is NOT a slugger...and thats what people wanna see.

I was gonna say Mosley but then I remembered Forrest

To be honest though out of all the current top 10 p4p claiments Floyd has probably the least awe inspiring competition, he has a few "names" but when we inspect what there record was like at the point that Floyd fought them, we can start smelling the coffee

Roy Jones said it best..."they say I didnt fight nobody...I just made em look like nobody"

No not at all mate I'm just saying he can go on and fight plenty of other good fighters ie Cotto, Mosley, Hatton, Margo, Spinks etc. and beat them IMO, not rest on his laurels an say thats it I'm done i was the greatest ever. He hasn't properly cleaned the divisions as he says. As for not liking him because he's not a slugger one of the best fights i've watched recently was Winky schooling Tito Feck me that was excellent. Floyds never beat someone that dangerous every round. I appreciate his skills an enjoy watching him fight but i just don't believe his own hype.

I agree with those totally.

I know we've been here before but RJJ imo is not as highly thought of in the UK as some of you may think.
He ducked all our top UK boys year in year out and they were the elite at that time ;)
Think about it ::**

I agree with you...you made a good point.Me personally I dont wanna see him fight people who cant beat him.Other than Hatton...I dont wanna see him fight Cotto,Moslery,Margo,Spinks unless they battle each other and one rises to the top...because I see waayy to many flaws in there game.

Floyd will be knocking on the greats door at the very least if he takes Oscar ;)
