Floyd's offensive skills leave much to be desired.

    Does Bernard Hopkins' defense leave a lot to be desired because its not as good as Floyd's?

    Its like you're comparing Jessica Alba to Jessica Biel. Sure one is better than the other but they're both better than anything you could ask for.
    JMM offense > PBF offense > 90% of all boxers offense.

      OK. Here's the answer to my question you are loathe to even answer. BECAUSE YOU THINK HYPING FLOYD'S INFERIOR OPPONENTS ELEVATE HIS STATUS AS A BOXER. There, I said it.

          Pretty sure that didn't answer the question that I asked. Actually you refuse to answer any logical question that is asked of you. I can no longer assume that its for any other reason than that you're mentally handicapped.

              His defensive skills may be the best in the business but his offense is far from the best.

              Hmmmm...How will you and the other Hattonhicks define Ricky Hatton's legacy when he gets knocked out by the most overated boxer of all time?

                Floyd's inferior opponents? So according to you, the four Ring Magazine Champions that Floyd has beaten are all inferior opponents. What does that say about Hatton. He has beaten one Ring Champion and two other opponents who were ranked in the top 10 in their weight division -- a total of three top 10 opponents in 43 fights (note: I'm not counting opponents ranked in the WBU top 10). How's that for top notch competition?

                  Floyd's offensive skills are great, the problem is he just doesn't use those skills enough and unless he's fighting a bum like Gatti he won't take any chances.

                  Thats why he's boring as ****.
