Did you read all of my post? I agree 100% with you. That's what I am saying, he has tremendous defense and movement but he is just not exciting enough to watch or ever been in any truly great figths to be considered a p4p all time great. But fighting Cotto, Mosley, Hatton or whoever wont change that. Floyd will still fight his way, running and taking pop shots. Those fights wont make him anymore of a great. Im just saying it is his decision and he feels it is the time to retire and although I am not happy about it I can see his point.
