I hear ya, TF.
I love Floyd to death but sometimes wish he wouldn't give his critics so much ammunition with his talking.
If it really is his hands and he's too ashamed to admit it, then I really can't fault his decision to retire.
And on the other hand (pardon the pun), he did do enough to be considered a great.
And I think what you're getting at is that true ATGs go BEYOND doing enough.

But of all the guys out there today, who could he fight that'd put him there?
I really don't see Hatton, Cotto, or Margarito putting him there RIGHT NOW.
Maybe in a few years depending on how Cotto develops, that might be a fight that needs to be made.
Perhaps Mosley? A win over Mosley would be an excellent name for the roster, but I think his critics would come out and tak of how he beat a past his prime Mosley.
Kind of like Oscars critics accused him of beating pastprime Whitaker and Chavez.

And there's just no damn way Floyd is taking on anyone at 160.
So aside from retiring, what should be his next move?
Hattons and Tony arent gonna and shouldn't happen.
Wait around to see if Cotto's the real deal? Mosely?
