SRR beat way too many HOF fighters in their prime to lose that top spot. Floyd is great, no doubt, but he just hasn't beaten the guys necessary for that spot or even the top ten to fifteen. Honestly. Look who SRR, Armstrong, Ali, Leonard, Duran...etc. fought and beat. This is not to say that Floyd isn't an ATG, I just can't see ranking him over guys who fought and beat ridiculous competition. I can see Floyd being top 25 or even top 20, but guys in the top 15 have some amazing resumes. U have to have some weigh to measure a fighters greatness b reduce the subjectiveness. Floyd is great n I don't think he ducked anyone, n this is a different era. That being said, SRR still fought ridiculous competition n beat then in their primes. I can't even see a case for Floyd being #1.
