You got to love Floyd's arrogance, it's such a dilemna for me. Two fighters that annoy me more than any others in the sport get it on a month from now.
Is it too much to hope that somehow they can both knock each other the fuck out?
If I had to choose I'd pick Floyd to beat Oscar. He says he'll retire then but he won't have achieved enough to be considered an All Time Great imo.
Stopping fighting now would be like Ali retiring after the first Liston fight, or Ray Robinson retiring after he went 2-1 with Jake La Motta.
He's not done enough. As mentioned above we all saw with Roy Jones that when it came down to it his chin wasn't all that and he couldn't come back from adversity. Any attempts to place him above the likes of Ali and Ray Robinson in the greatness stakes were in hindsight flawed. He fell short.
If Floyd does retire May 5th, regardless of the outcome questions will still be unanswered and he won't rate any higher than 20 in the all time great list imo.
Finally, is it me or is Floyd getting smaller every time he appears on camera?
He's like Tom Thumb or one of the borrowers, freaky little midget guy![]()
