How much will his personality hurt Floyd's legacy!!!
First topic message reminder :
Simple question...We all know Merchant hates him as he did Camacho.....Majority of old historians rated Dempsey higher than Johnson probably because he was a more engaging personality....
We all know it's hard to separate the fighter from the Man....
Tyson for me should be a top 10 heavy (well around ten anyway)...But he his kind of disrespected mainly due to his unloving persona.....
People we don't like we sometimes find any reason we can to put them down....
I think Floyd is a top 10 alltime fighter but I believe he won't get the accolade mainly because of his personality....I don't have to list his achievements..
How much will Floyd's personality affect his legacy!! Sure it has to!!

Robbo had a fair bit of trouble second time round with Turpin though, we mustn't forget.
As tumbling (I think) said, A beating B beating C doesn't necessarily mean A beats C. That's the intrigue of the sport.

Fair point...Curry-starling-Honey-curry-Starling-honey being a case in hand..
Twice can be a contentious issue though

You're right it can. Barrera was just edging the first fight, before he got DQ'd, and the 2nd was a close points loss, so they weren't total shockers I guess, just regular upsets.
