But what was Ali, Leonard, Robinson and Jones doing at 41?
Floyd is still unbeaten and was still fighting at the highest level
Well into his late 30s whereas most guys had long since retired.
Leonard, Ali, Tyson, Jones were all getting beat up in their late 30s
You obviously want to see Floyd get beaten but it'll never happen
50-0 with hundreds of millions in the bank. He doesn't need Crawford.
If the greats picked and chose their fights to the extent Floyd did and breaks he had in between, they would be fighting until they were 41.
Forget Floyd, his records will be surpassed and he will be forgotten. His legacy is nothing compared to the real great fighters.
Leonard did take breaks between fights
And actually fought ten times less than Floyd.
The man won belts in five weight divisions
And had over 20 world title fights (all of which he won)
I'm not saying Floyd is the greatest of all time (he isn't)
But he's still a great fighter and nobody can argue that.
Leonard took breaks because he was injured not for contractual reasons.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
