    What i wonder, if Floyd fights and beats shane, and then fights and beats manny.... Is that enough? Will he still be questioned or will the critics be satisfied with that?

    Does he then have to go on and beat paul williams? someone else?

    What do you think?
    lets play floyd fantasy fights!!!!!!

    That's what fraud jr. fans are good at.

        I already put Shane as the number 1 welter now..so if he KOs Floyd and Pac..
        he will for sure be #1 P4P..even if he didnt KO them..if he beat them convincingly he will be there IMO..and I think Mosley is a harder fight than Pac is for Floyd..

        Pac gets extra brownie points however you look at it.
        what screwed logic is this...History shows that Foreman beat Frazier better than Ali did..so youre saying that makes Foreman better than ALI? because he beat him quicker and better..
        lmao

          GBP said they are pushing it hard and both sides want it. Ellerbe said that Floyd told him & Haymon to make the fight. They both agreed on the testing. Now they have to workout the other **** but Ill believe it when the fight is signed. Yo, do you ever check out the radio show?

Floyd beat both guys 1st and dont act like a KO is better than a Decision. Thats Pac's style. He's always going to stop a guy before Floyd but that dont make it a better win.
            Its you *****s that are so deluded i dont even know what to say and am speechless.
            Cant you see that even if Pac didnt stop DLH, he was beating his ass. Hitting him and not being hit even better than PBF did against DLH.
            Was DLH even winning any rounds against pac, so what on earth are you on about with me? Pac was doing better against DLH even before DLH was stopped againsts pac. And Pac was better full stop. Dont act as if he wasnt. Geez

            If your so deluded that you choose not to understand what i just said. I'll put it another way. If DLH against Pac wasnt stopped in the eighth round like it was and went the full 12 rounds. Pacs 12 round win would have been better than PBFs. DLH was a punch bag for Pac for 12 rounds. If this isnt clear now and you decide to reply to me, i will make it even simpler to understand.
            I will write so that a 4 year old could understand.

              I still want to know how Pac pummelling DLH for the first 8 rounds wasnt as good as how PBF was pitter pattering DLH in the first eight rounds?

              DLT tell me why boxing enthusiasts or historians shouldnt or wont be more impressed with what Pac was doing to DLH compared to what PBF did to DLH.

                If you don't like the thread you could always STFU and leave.

                Or give an opinion on the topic instead of trying to **** on the mans thread.

                  yes, especially if he wins both fights untouched. i think beating Mosley is a great start. just taking the fight is a great start for Floyd. i can't wait for this fight, if it falls through over some BS then we can forget about him. period.

                    then they`ll say he would have moved one step closer to the hall of fame.

                      How you beat people counts as well. IMO the way he beat DLH isnt satisfactory enough. People beat DLH better when DLH was in his prime than PBF did. THere has to be an explanation for that and the explanation is because PBF isnt that good when he faced top opposition.
                      Yes he beat Hatton, and well done for that. But Collazo nearly beat him as well, as did a few others at 147. Pac showed how its supposed to be done. PBF will always lose brownie points for the manner of his wins.

                      If he beats Pac it will be far his best win. SSM he should have fought years ago. So he will need a few more over light middlewieight Paul WIlliams to show David really did Goliath.
                      No one is fooled by his win over DLH as a david and goliath moment in boxing.
                      Even Duran beat Barkley.
                      get real man, you would prolly say something dumb like "he has to win a tough close fight and if he wins a UD, he wasnt challeneging himself like he never does"

                      when its the simple fact that hes leagues ahead of this generation of boxers
