I have to agree with NuthaPug. Although, it has to be said I have taken issue with Floyd's behaviour in the past and he has been a fighter that has irratated me I feel he must be judged as a boxer on his boxing skills rather than his personality or behavious outside of the ring.


In the run up to Floyd's fight with my favourite Ricky Hatton, I watched a lot of Floyd's fights and training sessions. However, while watching the training sesions I have to admit I tired of his (but primarily his entourage's mouthing and trash talking." I turned it on mute. I watched a number of hours worth of Floyd fights, training sessions and highlights. As I was rendered objective by the removal of sound (and therefore personality) I could find no reason to dislike Floyd. What was presented to me was a great, slick fighter, who trained as hard as anyone I've ever seen. How can a true boxing fan dislike that

The next fight I saw with Floyd in it and the volume on was against my dude Ricky. We all know what happened and I won't lie I was on the edge of my seat and was stirred by what I saw. Floyd then gave a very good, sportsman like and gentlemanly interview, which indicated that perhaps he's a differnet person than he's led us to believe.
