    He isn't looking all that great at all these days.

    I do hate Floyd but you have to admire his skills. He took Cotto on at his weight with no catch weight so he gets my respect for that performance.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I kind of agree with you but you forogt all the positive things he bring to boxing!

    For example, Just bein the number one paid athletic gives boxing millions of viewers.
    I'm not a fan as I said earlier but Floyd might get the same reputation as sugar ray Leonard...
    Man i get alot of haters on me now, but for real nobody really knows!

    Regards. Xweetie

    He is the best boxer you have seen? Floyd was very good at the smaller weights, but for years now he has been picking and choosing and ducking and diving. The man is a fraud. You cannot say someone is the best you have ever seen if he doesn't play the game and Floyd doesn't play the game, he does it his way and it all about money rather than greatness. Hatton at WW, overweight against Marquez, Ortiz suckerpunch, Cotto close, DLH occasional pot shot and run, the Manny run around. It's a nonsense really. That's the best you have ever seen? He is not all that and he is half shot and knows it.

    Also yea mayweathers on the slide now but even an 80% mayweather is still way to much for anyone in boxing right now.

    If you believe what you believe then that is cool, but I have a very hard time seeing it that way. There are too many holes in Floyd for me to respect his higher weight resume and it is tough to give full credit to one who ducks and dodges like Floyd does.

    Also if he isn't ducking Pac, then why doesn't the fight happen? Manny has agreed to everything now. Or why not Martinez at 154? Floyd doesn't fight because he is done. He will end up fighting Guerrero at a 150 CW, get a close points win, and then moan for 2 years about not getting any respect.
