      Oh and Floyd is undefeated, is Roy? Oh that's right he was brutally KTFO into a coma twice LOL..
      Castillo beat his ass. In the rematch an ass whooping of 115-113 decision? Castillo made Floyd a ****. Mayweather fought a shot and past his prime De La Hoya. Fought a past his prime Gatti and Fought a slow mo 10 losses Baldomir. Judah was coming off a loss. He fought a smaller Hatton to move up to 147 instead of fighting Cotto or Margarito.

        LOL... two completely different styles (Tarver and Johnson) have Roy's number? It is called AGE not "#"

          Actual age and ring age are two very different things. RJJ was never the same after moving up to HW.

            hopkins started seriously boxing in his mid 20's, roy was doing it since probably about age 5 (wear and tear on the body causes varying lengths of one's "prime"), holyfield and foreman were heavyweights whose primes last far longer because they rely less on movement/skill/speed more on power which doesn't diminish as fast.

                  Wrong, Castillo as always outweighed floyd by over 10 lbs AND floyd had a bad injury and floyd still schooled your boy WITH ONE HAND. That's right, need me to say it agian? Floyd schooled your boy ONE HANDED and then in the rematch whooped his ass even harder. Floyd made Castillo HIS *****. The rest is just pathetic sophmoric attempts to discredit a fighter by a hating little ****.

                    I had Castillo beating Mayweather clearly. In the eyes of people that will never change. I think Floyd protected his 0 by avoiding top Fighters though.

                      Age matters when you have a style like Ali and Roy that relies so much on speed and reflexes.
