      when Floyd fought him he still had some umph, he had never been knocked out and basically was as tough as they come, not saying he was some GREAT, phenomenal opponent but he certainly wasn't no chump, did you see what he did to Miguel Cotto? that wasn't luck yo it was Corley fighting the way he knew how and thats an in your face style, quick hands, decent power and good chin it's just some guys lose it faster than they should, thats not to say he didn't have his moments, Chop Chop was a threat at one point believe it or not, don't think that because he's ****ing up now that he wasn't a problem back then, it's just tomorrow is always another day, his day came and went for whatever reason in his young career and now it's time to make a choice, either step his game back up and train harder or hang'em up.. definitely no bum though, gatekeeper? yes, bum? no.. 100
