    Hopefully its not finished yet.

    Floyd will always have haters over his resume and so did JC.

    His resume speaks for itself.

    It will bever be enough for some people.

    Remember all those years ago when everyone said corroles would steamroll floyd?

    Have we ever seen an A* floyd...he fights at the level of his opponents.

    Incredible resume.

    20 years of undefeated pro boxing. 18 years as a champion, fighting other champions and world class opposition.

    Who has done that? When has that ever happened?

    Solid resume. Not the best resume ever but definitely one of the best in boxing right now.

    You can't really argue with it (his resume) but for me it could have been much better given his talent.

    Floyd has a great resume, just not an ATG resume. The Chico, Castillo, and Hatton fights were his best performances, in my opinion. Chico and Hatton were undefeated when he fought them, and both were p4p guys that he stopped. Castillo was just hitting his groove and a very underrated and outstanding champ who probably should've won the first fight, but was dominated in the rematch.

    The Canelo, Baldomir, and Pac wins were all very good wins. Canelo was a much larger man, but his lack of experience keeps this out of the great category for me. Baldy was a lineal champ and was HUGE for 147, while Floyd was coming up and much smaller. Baldy was a limited guy however, so Floyd boxing to a decision wasn't great or unexpected. I feel like the Apache fight is the same whenever they fight, but Pacs deterioration keeps that win out of the great category for me.

    The Genaro/Famoso Hernandez, Angel Manfredy, Gatti, Oscar, Judah, Maidana, Jesus Chavez, Cotto and Mosely fights were all solid performances and wins. I thought the Bruseles and JMM fights were classless displays, and I feel the Berto fight on PPV is a joke. Over all that is a great resume.

    I don't think Floyd will ever be a top 10 ATG, no matter what he does.

    The top 10 ATG list is pretty much set in stone at this point.

    Lack of experience? He had 43 fights, he was the champion of the division for over 2 years, had defended his title 6 or 7 times, had gone the full 12 round distance 5 times.

    He had seen a ton of different styles from a lot of grizzled vets, had been in there with an ATG in Mosley (a washed up Mosley, yes, but Mosley) and just had a tough battle where he had to dig deep against a slick southpaw who had just beat the hell out of Miguel Cotto.

    Canelo had a TON of experience for his age.

    And right after the Floyd loss, Canelo rose back up to the #1 position in the division by beating Lara, a guy who was considered one of the best talents in boxing and a guy people accused Floyd of ducking.

    By weak-minded sheep who get their information spoon-fed to them, sure.

    For people who actually like to think critically about the sport, nothing is ever set in stone.

    I think most boxing fans just blindly parrot what they've read or heard.

    Was just about to say the same thing. As you know I dont like Floyd but how he can be outside anyones top 10 list is beyond me. No doubt most of these guys have guys in there top 10 that theyve seen fight once or twice at most.

    His CV is good but lets not drool over it. For what he earns he should have fought GGG by now.
