All a fighter can do is beat the best out there, then retire. A reputation or legacy only comes after many years of retirement when a fighter's whole career can be objectively viewed as a completed item.

Nobody can write history and influence on what future generations will think, and it is pretty arrogant to think so.
A fighter cements his legacy by beating the best out there. So far, Floyd has NOT done that, and if you think Floyd doesn't care about about his legacy, you are sadly mistaken. That, and money, are all he cares about. Fighters care about their legacy all the time - look at Hopkins, Jones, and to some degree, Toney. Why else would Hopkins consider fighting Maskaev? Yes, it is arrogant, but guess what, I'm not sure there is a more arrogant person on the planet than PBF.

If he retires now, the will be to many questions.
