That's how he gets to be an alltime great. Take a risk and actually fight a top fighter. Mosley would be perfect. Not just run and be content to win rounds, try to ko him. If he did that with ODH and won we wouldn't be having this ...."nothing PBF does is good enough" argument. He needs to take a risk and make the career defining fight.
so he's not an all time great because he minimizes the other guy's chances of winning. That's ridiculous.. I don't see how having a close, beat him up, knockdown bloodyt fight would make him great...

a top fighter? Corrales, castillo, weren't top? Oscar? Basically he should take a risk and try to beat them at their own fight...take a risk by giving the other guy more chances to ko him? he stopped corrales knocked him down five times too....stopped hernandez,chavez, and manfredy...
I didn't say the fight has to be close. In some people's opinion the fight with ODH wasn't close. Some feel PBF easily outpointed him. If so, be great and take it a step further, go for the ko. Not suggesting that he give away his advantages. Don't trade, but you have to take risks if you are going to be great. Basically we are talking about greatness, not goodness. It's like a hero or a superhero. He needs to do something above and beyond. He had a great chance with ODH but he didn't go for it. His strategy was to win on points. Would have been great if he turned up the offense and went for a stoppage.
