he's never pulled out of a fight in his whole carreer (besides a postponement due to a rib injury in training for delahoya).
His whole carreer all he's does is signed the contract, trained hard, showed up, and whupped arse, an thats what i like him and should be respected 4 dat.
when it comes down to the sport of boxing, who dedicates themselve to their craft as much as he does (and from a young age). the only one who comes close to the work ethic of floyd is bernard hopkins, that shows through his longevity, his shape for his age and his boxing savvy.
he might not be everyones cups of tea (mines tetleys by the way) n he gets himself into trouble, but at the end of the day thats just something extra he brings to the table, drama, conversation, its good for publicity and forums like this or half the time we'd hav bugger all to chat about.
i bet a third of the threads in this whole forum has floyd or his familys name attatched to it and the pacquiao fight will come, its just extra drama building up and anticipation, everyones too impatient
