I have this defend/attack thing going with Floyd.
I'm, absolutely, not going to call it a love/hate relationship for obvious reasons.
Every time somebody trys to tell us how bad, boring, stupid, or light punching Floyd is, I feel compelled to defend him. I'll say something about how he makes very good fighters look bad, always figures out a way to win, and makes more money than any fighter ever has, while always winning.
On the other hand, when someone try's to tell us that Floyd is the best ever, his fights are all things of beauty, and if you don't agree you are a racist pig I feel compelled to attack Floyd. I'll say something about how Floyd is the most predictable fighter ever, his fights are usually exciting for 2 or 3 rounds and then he starts picking them apart, watching Floyd fight is like watching a traffic signal you always know what's coming next.
Anybody else have this defend/attack thing going on with Floyd.😍😡
Re: I have this defend/attack thing going with Floyd.
If he is so predictable, why has no one been able to capitalize on his simple traffic light like pattern?

Sir, read the entire post. Do you really think the thread is about badmouthing Floyd?

Did I suggest your post was bad mouthing Floyd? I'm pointing out that he must not be as predictable as you suggest. That is all.

I've kinda swung. I used to hate him, but you have to appreciate the skill it takes to dominate so many top fighters. For me I've come to enjoy his fights because watching him pick top fighters apart by hitting and not getting hit is special, the guy is a master of his craft. I've come to accept Wladimir Klitschko for the same reason. It seems the formula to beat Wlad is simple, get inside and bang him on his glass chin but nobody has been able to do it in a long time. While their fights seem boring, it's only boring because it's not competitive. You may not enjoy watching it, but dominating an era deserves to be respected and appreciated.

Dude, great post, I could have written the exact same thing you wrote and meant every word. Thanks, very well said. I feel the same about both Wlad and Floyd although Floyd I've always appreciated but Wlad took more time fir me to appreciate him, which I do very much so now, also, he seems like a decent guy in interviews I've seen.

Thanks dude, I think sometimes quality is lost on some people on this forum. I've been guilty of it to in the past, so I can't over-criticize. Sometimes fighters prove you wrong.
Re: I have this defend/attack thing going with Floyd.
I have an attack attack thing for Floyd. He is an ATG not TBE and he does not stand to scrutiny for that accolade. He is a prick outside the ring and provides no entertainment value inside. The sooner he retires the better. He is obscenely overpaid for what he does in that ring.
