No announcement yet.
Do you believe Floyd will retire undefeated?

When someone brings up his name it will be about the guys he could have fought but didn't instead of him being up there with the all time greats.
Not fighting Pacquiao when they were both prime hurts his legacy IMHO.
The only guy out there near enough his weight that is an actual risk for Floyd is Martinez, imo.
I don't expect to see this fight made.
Yeah, he probably retires w/his 0 and I don't see him going broke and needing to come back for the dough.

No he will certainly stick around way to long and all it will take is a bit more slippage for him to lose a decision. He may never get whomped on because he will always fight in a way that prevents that but lose all that takes is convincing two judges you did better in 6 or 7 rounds~

Originally posted by Bushbaby View PostOf course he will. Ask his uncle. Who believes because Chavez jr dropped Martinez, Floyd would ko him. Therefore he feels Floyd should fight Pacman, Marquez & Bradley. Since his word is law on koing Martinez.
Floyd's spent a career only taking the fights he knows he's supposed to win. I don't see how anyone can expect different from him in his final fights.

Mayweather actually fought ranked fighters in his career.
LMAO...What, you forget about Lacy being the undefeated IBF champ when Calzaghe ended his career? How about Kessler being the undefeated WBC champ when Joe broke him to pieces? Not to mention the record 21 defenses of the WBO SMW belt he had? How about when he moved up in weight and smacked Hopkins around and took his LHW Ring belt?
I'd imagine he fought quite a few ranked guys during that run whether you choose to acknowledge them or not.Last edited by mathed; 02-02-2013, 02:34 PM.

And you just named the ONLY fighters in Calzaghe's entire career that were in the Top 5 in his division when he fought them. There is no one else. Yes, three people who were ranked in the Top 5 in his divison in his entire career.
If you'd imagine he' fought quite a few ranked guys during his run, why don't you name them?
You can't, because there is barely any.
He fought 3 fighters in his entire career who were in the Top 5 in his weight class. He only fought a handful of fighters that were even in the bottom half of the top 10.
