RE: Potential Mayweather-McGregor numbers.
The thing is though, Viper, you rank a fighter's greatness based on how great they were at their best times (and how long those best times went on for) not how shitty they were at their worst times.

If a fighter is genuinely great, and that greatness continues for a long period of time (as it did with Floyd), then nothing after the fact can alter that.

If it does, then our entire ATG rankings are based on how 'perfect ' their career was and if they managed to retire at the right time. Someone like Roberto Duran is screwed as he got beat up by William Joppy in his 40's, but Calzaghe and Floyd are top dogs as they 'got out' before they suffered a loss after their primes.


Therefore, for me, it's about what you achieved rather than what you fucked up on.
