Yes that was a potential fight at the time but Floyd was super featherweight and Naz was at most featherweight. Except now of course.

I think Floyd would fight at a disadvantage and allow the fight to be at HW

Floyd always fight at an advantage, he would have insisted on a catch weight.
Re: Floyd May the UNDISPUTED T.B.E
When Floyd fans, I actually consider myself one, but when it is said TBE is it meant ever, in all of boxing, or a particular weight. In the history of boxing I can see ATG thrown in with a number of fighters but not TBE in all of boxing history.

Re: Floyd May the UNDISPUTED T.B.E
Legacy wise you could rate a number of guys higher than him based on longevity, if you like losses and comebacks etc... but of form??!?!? HELL NAH son, TBE.
Re: Floyd May the UNDISPUTED T.B.E
money made
ppv records
undefeated at the highest caliber for 19 years
self managed
self promoted
pioneer in drugs testing
little damage sustained
TBE P4P #1 ATG -- WHO IS BETTER?
Re: Floyd May the UNDISPUTED T.B.E
Pioneer in drugs testing? Yes. If you pay the drug testers enough money you can tell them when you're ready to be tested, get preferential treatment over your competiton and when you get caught cheating they'll cover it up anyway.

Is it Audley Harrison?
Re: Floyd May the UNDISPUTED T.B.E
Arguably the TBE at making money, and money is all he wanted .....right?

That leaves two that do have something to do with boxing skill and ability, and highly debatable on the first count. The second one may be true, but why? Hardly a compelling case for TBE.

He says he's TBE The Best Ever.
Did he say best fighter ever..? Or is he saying he's The Best Ever at the fight game.
The hit and not get hit, make the most money and get out with all your faculties and health intact game?
Many of you may not like it but Floyd has shown he is the best at the fight game.
