    True, that was the biggest blown fight in boxing history. I don't blame one guy specifically for it, I think they both missed the boat on that one. It's a shame the two spoiled prima donnas couldn't be bothered to put differences aside to make the fight of the century, but whatever.

    I think Floyd is a much more complete fighter than the guys mentioned though (Hearns, Hagler, Leonard and Duran). I can look at all those guys and say "well if you look here, he had a lot of trouble with this style", whereas I can look at Floyd and see that he fought and bested pretty much any style you can think of, and had the ability to adapt to his opponent and switch to plan B, C, or Z if necessary in a fight.

    Back to the thread though, I say Floyd will fight 6 more times. I'd say he will do it over 2 1/2 to 3 years.
    Leonard took on very dangerous fighters like Hearns and Duran (who was out of his best weight class but vicious enough to beat Leonard) which shortened his career. Had Leonard been selective like Floyd he could have made a lot more money but not much respect as he has now from fans.

    When Leonard came back after the Hagler victory he carefully selected his opponents which is where Floyd got the blue print to make money and stay safe.
    Agreed, I believe Canelo would beat Floyd.

    Young skillful, powerful and has decent speed.

    Yeah mate, if he gets through it he should have Canelo for the the next Mexican holiday, that'll sell out.
