Just say Wlad is white

Oh, so that's your problem with him then?

Nope I don't target Wlad or Vitali but you attack Floyd, really I don't care about K2 but Floyd being great annoys you.

Never said if you were a GGG fan I suspect you are.

You don't target Wlad or Vitali but you brought them up.

I didn't attack Floyd, I just said he'd never fight someone like Duran because Roberto Duran is the Greatest Lightweight of All-Time and one of the best pound-4-pound boxers in the history of the sport.....those don't come around every day you know. So I wasn't "attacking" Floyd, I was putting Duran in perspective. Floyd being great annoys me? I want you to count how many time that I said Floyd was great in this thread alone....go ahead count 'em up

GGG decent fighter, would I consider myself a fan? No. I was a fan of Tavoris Cloud...rather disappointed he didn't get some title shots sooner, but whatever it happens. I like Joe Hanks too, but he just lost as well. I like Deontay Wilder, I am a Miguel Cotto fan, I liked Andy Lee...race simply isn't an issue with the boxers I like and don't like....hate to disappoint you man

Cut the tomfoolery.The notion that Floyd Mayweather would have "been ordinary" in Durans time, Robinsons time, Gans time or any other time is borderline boxing inept.

But we could all see Floyd avoid fighting Duran at lightweight because he was with Arum, on PED's, not enough money etc

Honestly i think Mayweather gets crushed by Hearns thats not a great match up for him. I think he loses to Leonard i think Ray was just as good and was far more powerful. Duran i think may get ud most likely at welterweight more so then lightweight. Mayweather vs Benitez would be a bad watch not sure who would win but the fight would be shit. I Think Mayweather is in the top 15 in atg and out of the top guys form the 80's i see Hearns and Leonard beating him. I don't know who brought Wald up but he most likely will be top ten atg heavy if he keeps on winning the way he is.

Playing devils advocate..

An injured floyd mayweather sr took the fight with a prime leonard and took him ten rounds..wonder what his prime son would have done.

Hearns crushing floyd? Is it the height and power that scares everyone? Leonard cracked the code im pretty sure floyd would. Does floyd fight well against tall rangy fighters?

I agree with duran and wilfred.
Floyd owns both.

Are we forgetting the marvelous one?..

Maybe sarcastic but another good point made.

How many professional boxers of old got away with steroid abuse compared to stricter controls that we have now (well, the controls arent perfect now but alot better!)

There was not an inkling of olympic style testing then (in boxing) so who knows how many great fighters werent so great after all.

Then again, how longs a piece of string.

Those were all legit reasons you know Top Rank won't work with Golden Boy and good will efforts like letting Lara and PDL fight Top Rank guys got them nothing and a robbery.

Manny said he's scared of needles while having tats.

In the USA the cable company takes half the PPV money I assure you the numbers Arum wanted were unrealistic

No other account, don't even know how to put an avi on here, you scream Euro hugger to me, so it's weird to see you down talk a great while being a fan of someone considered lesser by most fans.

DISCLAIMER:I'm a fan of boxing, I have an opinion.....this opinion is probably not the same as your own, you have been warned.


Did you count and see how many times I called Floyd great or did you just ASSUME I was bullshitting? How much more great do you want me to say Floyd is? Every other sentence in all of my posts is something to the effect of "Floyd is great, nobody is arguing he isn't"

Euro hugger? So first I'm racist and now I just like people from Europe? ....the other posters should get a laugh about that one

Well for one Hagler is a mw so no way in hell Mayweather would get in the ring with him. Mayweather i do not think has the chin walk through Hearns shots and knock him out like Leonard did. Leonard battered sr that fight was a ass kicking and i think Mayweather would lose a ud Lenoard I think was a better fighter and if had to could brawl some. I mean all bs anyhow just my take on it i mean none of this really matters because it never happen. I still trying to figure out how the fuck Wald got into this one its funny.

He was brought up by someone who questioned my view of Floyd Mayweather and Roberto Duran to try to get me riled and off topic

If you talk like you talk about Floyd than yes you have a stupid opinion, with your political views and being a K2 fan I can figure you out.

Basically you are a hypocrite or a racist.
