    Your thread is trash, which is why it got trashed.

        Floyd's last 5 fights.

        Arturo Gatti who's last fight was with the contender Gomez and lost badly.

        Sharmba Mitchel who was knocked down in the third round, and three times in the fourth round to Paul Williams in his last fight.

        Jab Judah who's last fight was on Friday Night Fights and was very unimpressive. Also got KO'd by Cotto previous to that.

        Baldomir who he RAN from (WTF!) and just lost to an old Vernon Forrest

        DLH the buisnessman who he also RAN from (WTF!).

        When was Floyd's last great fight? Henry Bruseles? Back in Jan 05? Was that really a great fight? Or do we have to go back to N'dou back in 03?What the **** has he been doing since then? Sailing.... ducking..... running...dancing.

        Then he takes on Hatton who has to move up a division to fight him when he has 3 big names calling him out within his own division. Mosely Cotto and Williams.

        L O S E R !
        I agree. The most overrated boxer of all time.

              To me PBF is potentially an all time great fighter but he has never fought an A class fighter in his prime ,most of the big names on his record he has picked at opurtune moments when they have been at their most vulnerable be it age or form ,it always seems to be a factor

                Regardless of what happened after the Floyd fight, Corrales was A class and prime at 130.

                  i disagree i dont think he was a Class A fighter i know he had a good record coming into the fight but he is not in the same catergory as Dela Hoya ,Mosley Hopkins that is Class A IMO

                    He was #5 P4P, a former titlist at 130 (which he vacated when he was going to move up to 135, immediately came back down to fight Floyd). He was also 33-0 with a ****ton of KOs.

                    Come now. He really wasn't an A class fighter?

                    He seems to have the misfortune of James Toney... moving up too quickly between weight classes, meaning his power got less and less, as well as his speed, and he just couldn't cut it, which makes people forget about their early careers.

                      Didnt beat anyone of note to deserve the p4p rank, which is a meaningless way to rank fighters anyway. Sure, people THOUGHT he was good and props to mayweather for taking the fight(I dont think mayweather ducks people) but it is another non-issue regarding mayweather's claim to be an ATG.
