Has Floyd ever been rocked or hit clean?

Damn. It is actually difficult to find instances where Floyd has been hurt. I don't think there is any fighter out there you can say that about.

I have always thought Floyd had ducked several good opponents, but with that kind of defence, nobody stands a chance.

There is always someone! If history has told us anything it is that there is always someone out there if you fight the best consistently you'l take an L, Floyd's problem is that he isn't that interested in finding out

The only person I think who could get close to giving Floyd an L, is Paul Williams. But I guess we will never find out.

The idea that Floyd "ducked" opponents is pretty new. Up until he went up to 140 he had the reputation of taking on all comers and beating them so easily that other fighters got scared off. Juan Lazcano, Acelino Freitas and Joel Casamayor turned down career high paydays rather than fight him when he was at 130/135.

But when he went up to 140 he was cherry picking big money fights and that's when people started to say that he ducked fights. The truth is the only fight he might have "ducked" was Margarito. Mosley was offered the fight and instead said he had a tooth ache. Cotto probably would have gotten the fight eventually and may still, but he lost to Margarito.

I think cotto and pac man could get close, but whether they could beat him is another story.

Floyd would need a ****ing step ladder to hit williams so im pretty sure paul would give him some problems

Paul Williams fighting at 147 is just an anomaly. He's really a tall middleweight who somehow manages to fight at welterweight. He's the same height as most of the top 168/175 lbers. I don't think there's any question he's being ducked at 147 because of his height. Once he gets a few wins at 154/160 though he's start getting some good fights because there he isn't the freak of nature he is at 147.

yeah I agree, of course he is being ducked. It is too much of an advantage, cotto is 5' 7' and floyd 5' 8', williams is 6'2', they would have to throw lunging punches to hit him, its too much of an advantage.

Zab had a flash KD against him that wasn't called, and Corley hurt him in their fight. Castillo did damage to his body also. But why the **** does Mr boat buyer's name keep poppin up?

It makes a hater like you sick doesn't it? Judah got his ass kicked by Floyd to the point where he was forced to cheat. And Floyd beat Castillo twice.

First punch wasnt hard, and second was just sc****d his head. A 6 year old wouldn't be hurt.

Corley hit him, stunned him pretty nicely.

De La Hoya hit him flush.

Augustus was his hardest fight, he got hit pretty clean in there.

Castillo in the first fight worked his body the best.

Judah hit him with what should have been a flash knockdown blow.

Only time where he actually may have been hurt was against Corley. Oscar never hurt him. Hatton knocked him off balance as well as Judah.
