I think one day maybe there could be but i wouldnt say any time in the near future..
We dont really think much of it but Ray robinsons legacy has had years to cook over and not only his career is long in the past but all his opponents careers are all finished (of course) and word of mouth and everything else stands the test of time and you dont question all the little things like you would with a current active fighter today, or one of the recent past..
Like duran i would say is just about at that stage where his legacy has passed the test of time and all people have for him is love, admiration and respect.. But im sure he was criticised like alot of active fighters are today..
But imo i can imagine big time p4p legends that are considered by fans in 50 years will include the likes of Jones, Hopkins Floyd.. Its like theyre never really appreciated until they are gone.. we will see how far sloyd goes before he actually hangs up the gloves.. he could well be considered in the same light given many years to mull it over...Course srr was a beast of a hitter too which floyd lacks..Lol damn that man was a ledge..
