Floyd has NEVER unified any weight class he has fought at and he has always left at least one guy in each division who could have challenged him.

The glaring omissions of Shane Mosley, Miguel Cotto, and others hurts Floyd's legacy
I think he needed to test himself more as well. All the best fighters in history fought the best in their division. Yes we all know he could beat Cotto, Margarito, Mosley, Tszyu and those types of fighters but he I would rather see it than just know it.

I love Floyd the fighter. He's one of my favorites EVER! But Floyd the person regardless if it's a public image or if that's how he really is, is still an immature little prick.
Im with this,Not doubting his skillset and belts but I just dont think that he's fully maximized his talent,and frankly he does not show an interest in doing so.Hes all about self.For me,I dont think beating a Mosley...at lightweight or even now...is a giving thing.Nor a Cotto,Tszyu etc.Its one thing to prove greatness against the best,but entirely different to assume it.Theres a reason a man in peak form steps aside,I dont know really why.Be it mental,physical,motivation or drive.
