Ali had losses and he is still the goat in my opinion for different reasons.
Let's not excuse the fact that retaining that 0 doesnt matter!
Every fighter in history wants to keep their 0 but for whatever reason it doesn't always work out that way.
In this era floyd happens to be undefeated and is the best of THIS era.
Ray leonard has losses but was the best of HIS era..leonard would have loved to remained undefeated but Duran had his number that night.
Floyd doesn't care one tenny-wenny-tinny bit if we care about that "0", he does! Floyd does not give a rat's ass about eras!
Floyd wants that 50-0 record and that's all there is to it, end of story!
Floyd is not stupid, he knows he'll be an ATG and in the Hall of Fame without the 0. And he knows he will be so much more with that 0.
That's a record that will transcend boxing, it will be something extraordinary. People who despise boxing will know about Floyd and that 0! Do not say that 0 does not matter, because in my opinion, it's the only thing that does matter to Floyd.
Who knows when someone with Floyd's talent and hellacious cherry picking abilities will come along again?! Lol Just kidding, there will be plenty of guys come along with his talent. Lol Just fucking with you.
To tell the truth, I don't care much for Floyd, but I'd hate to see him come this close and get separated from that 0.
