This thread is an example of why I can say Floyd has great skills, but he is not a great fighter.

The greats don't have these mythcial questions affixed to them. The greats are too ego-driven to not find out themselves.

We can't ask too many of these questions with Ali or Ray Robinson because if a fighter was ranked, or highly touted, those guys fought them.

Yes Floyd could've beatan AM & PW with skill, but he retired conveniently during the time these two tall ass lanky fighters who both average 100 punches per round were at their peak.

My perspective is simple, no rocket science:
1. In my book you don't have to be undefeated to be called great
2 Because Great fighters don't leave these questions to be debated on a (he woulda won basis)...

Oh well, so we have to debate on woulda/coulda, when he in fact: Didn't want to fight Margarito for whatever reason we like to insert.
