Ray didn't have too much left to prove but the CHALLENGE OF THE FIGHT drove Ray Leonard to take on Tommy Hearns and he had to work really hard to win that fight. He had to overcome adversity to triumph.....that's what people are waiting for Floyd to do.


Floyd has all the talent in the world I am just waiting for him to get in with someone who is going to make him use 110% of that talent....someone that's going to push him to the brink of quitting. Jose Luis Castillo is the only one that has even come close so far. And I don't know if it's just how much better Floyd is that the other guys or if he's scared to get a 1 in the L column....that's my concern, I never have decided...why not fight Oscar? Why not fight Shane Mosely?

If Floyd is truely the best he'll be willing to prove it and that's all the fans ask for.
Its hard when Floyd dosent have a bona fied nemesis like Tommy Hearns, Joe Frazier Jake Lamotta etc YET

It could be Cotto, Hatton or Margarito but not yet..

back by the way
