      I don't like the guy because in 2009 he had a chance to inject some life into boxing as one of the few names that appeal to the mainstream sports fan and he simply didn't do it.

      I'm aware that he doesn't NEED to do anything. But I also don't NEED to like him.

        Lots of anger. Nah, not Kool Aid, thanks.

        I just like lots of different kinds of fighters.

            Without their chins, Margarito and Tua may as well have been bums on the street. I mean that with all sincerity. I've never seen anyone with less skills get as far in boxing as Margarito. Without his chin, that guy is no better than anybody in the world.

              wins over oscar, zab, carlos B, mitchell, hatton, and G hernandez

              he started at super featherweight and has boxed up to junior middleweight, often giving away weight

              he beat hatton fair and square, it wasnt the ref (who committed the horrible crime of not letting hatton hold and hit), and it wasnt the ringpost, he dominated him and KO'd him

              it would have been nice to see him fight margarito or cotto, but really the coward accusations arent justified...he is an elite fighter who has done things no e-thug floyd haters have ever done...he aint a coward, and hes not even a real welterweight...

              and he will come back and fight at least once more, i know that

              so why do you guys hate him...cause he talks trash? cause he wins?

              or maybe its because he backs up his talk, he always says hes gonna win, and he always does


              i know why some people on here hate him (****s)

              why others hate him (he schooled hatton and ko'd him, so they pull lame excuses out)

              and i think others just say it to go along with the crowd


              but you all have to admit,floyd has a big impact on his fans, and even his haters.....how can i tell? its been a year since he fought...and this thread will get like a million views....so floyd wins...cos even though you say you hate him you still talk about him

              HAHA
              i think it's floyd's obnoxious mouth and the fact that he's a rich black man.

                do you know what all the all time greats have in common?

                they kept moving up and kept winning.
                true, nearly all the great fighters moved up in weight

                its very special because it usually means fighting naturally bigger guys

                  yeah and without his speed floyd wouldn't be floyd what's your point?

                  everyone has their strengths and weaknesses.

                  to call margarito and tua unskilled is idiotic.

                  you don't have to dance like robinson to have skill.

                  tua won a bronze in the olympics and medalled in the world championshipsfor god's sake.

                      no hate on the guy because he gets fighters paid but......because of him a lot of good fights didn't happen.

                      i remember making a thread about it.

                      shane skipping 140 was to chase him.

                      floyd could have fought marg or cotto if he hadn't gone to fight oscar at 154.

                      we would have maybe seen pac-marquez 3 if oscar hadn't needed an opponent this december.

                      why dont you rag on mosely for not fightign kostya at 140???

                      if floyd ducked marg than shane ducked kostya
