Forgive my ignorance but has Floyd ever been hit clean and hurt? I have only watched about 6 of his fights and have never seen him get hit with a real heavy punch.
Could people tell me where and when he has been tagged or wobbled, if he even has?
Corley hit him, stunned him pretty nicely.
De La Hoya hit him flush.
Augustus was his hardest fight, he got hit pretty clean in there.
Castillo in the first fight worked his body the best.
Judah hit him with what should have been a flash knockdown blow.

First punch wasnt hard, and second was just scraped his head. A 6 year old wouldn't be hurt.
Zab had a flash KD against him that wasn't called, and Corley hurt him in their fight. Castillo did damage to his body also. But why the **** does Mr boat buyer's name keep poppin up?
It makes a hater like you sick doesn't it? Judah got his ass kicked by Floyd to the point where he was forced to cheat. And Floyd beat Castillo twice.
Paul Williams fighting at 147 is just an anomaly. He's really a tall middleweight who somehow manages to fight at welterweight. He's the same height as most of the top 168/175 lbers. I don't think there's any question he's being ducked at 147 because of his height. Once he gets a few wins at 154/160 though he's start getting some good fights because there he isn't the freak of nature he is at 147.
yeah I agree, of course he is being ducked. It is too much of an advantage, cotto is 5' 7' and floyd 5' 8', williams is 6'2', they would have to throw lunging punches to hit him, its too much of an advantage.
I think cotto and pac man could get close, but whether they could beat him is another story.
Floyd would need a ****ing step ladder to hit williams so im pretty sure paul would give him some problems

The only person I think who could get close to giving Floyd an L, is Paul Williams. But I guess we will never find out.

Damn. It is actually difficult to find instances where Floyd has been hurt. I don't think there is any fighter out there you can say that about.
I have always thought Floyd had ducked several good opponents, but with that kind of defence, nobody stands a chance.
The idea that Floyd "ducked" opponents is pretty new. Up until he went up to 140 he had the reputation of taking on all comers and beating them so easily that other fighters got scared off. Juan Lazcano, Acelino Freitas and Joel Casamayor turned down career high paydays rather than fight him when he was at 130/135.
But when he went up to 140 he was cherry picking big money fights and that's when people started to say that he ducked fights. The truth is the only fight he might have "ducked" was Margarito. Mosley was offered the fight and instead said he had a tooth ache. Cotto probably would have gotten the fight eventually and may still, but he lost to Margarito.
There is always someone! If history has told us anything it is that there is always someone out there if you fight the best consistently you'l take an L, Floyd's problem is that he isn't that interested in finding out

He got stunned in the fourth round of the Chop Chop Corley fight. He broke his hand really badly during the Famoso Hernandez fight and touched the canvass with his glove, which is still the only "knockdown" he's suffered in his career.
Other than that, no. Basically no he's never been hurt in a pro fight.
emmanuel augustus hit him clean quite a few times but floyd took them well.
Corley in the 4th round is what most people will tell you, but corley hit him in the 3rd round and hurt him worse, it was a straight left which went straight to floyd's legs, I think a lot of people missed it or haven't seen it.
Its a great fight if you havent seen it id watch it, floyd like most right handed fighters looks more vulnerable to southpaws
Yeah, Corley rocked him good but paid the price by getting the shit beat out of him the rest of the fight.
I think Corley may have won that round and that round alone on the judge's scorecards.
Floyd-Corley is one of my favorite Floyd fights. It was a pretty good fight, but after that punch Floyd really put it on Corley I was amazed he saw the end of the fight.
Both Judah and Demarcus Corley hit him clean and stunned him. Really they were one off shots though and never really happeaned again in the fights nor were they really able to captialize on them.
