          Floyd, like Christy Martin, has never publicly gone to sleep in front of millions of people.

            Whitaker makes sense, but Pryor surprises me. He was the total opposite of anything we've ever seen from Mayweather, a chin at the ready swarmer who's only defence was his offense.. Great to watch, but not quite an atg imo.

                His uncle Roger.

                A sporting career is relatively short in terms of being able to compete.

                With Floyd, The Black Mamba is finishing what he started.

                    Well, he's bound to say JMM is'nt he. Floyd beat him at his own game of countering and moving. Some product, but imo should'nt be compared to the atg's who who fought for a living. Guy comes out once a year for a lottery cheque, and as much as i appreciate his 'immense' talent, if he'd been given anything remotely close to the workload of SRR or Armstrong, he'd have ran and quit the sport years ago.. Means the cheeky ****er can carry on into his 50's, and claim to be the goat. Bit of a fraud if you ask me, but like many other mugs, i'll still be forking out the ppv come Canelo, who imo is'nt a great deal better than Hatton, and he'll be lucky to hear the final bell.
                    But then, that'll be that for another 18 mths or so.
