    And when i say Floyd can beat Duran im not comparing there opponents, im talking in regards to a one-on-one bout.
    morales' resume is better than floyd's.

    and he might not even be top 50 possibly.



    floyd always wins hypothetical matchups in the eyes of his fans.

    the guy wouldn't fight cotto and all of sudden he's gonna beat duran. tough pill to swallow for me.

    even if he can beat duran , it doesn't mean anything. he never did it.

    wlad would probably ktfo joe louis but that don't mean wlad is greater.

    resume. resume. resume.

    legacy is all you have when your career is done. what will floyd be remembered for? when did he "shook up the world"?

        that was on purpose. judah sucks balls. if i mention judah for floyd then i'll mention larios for pacquiao. baldomir? diaz. chavez? ledwaba. mitchell? sasakul.

        either way floyd's resume is no match for pac's. especially since pac is still going and floyd might be done.

        as far as judah......

        i hate underachieving talented fighters.

        i have a bias towards less talented but tries hard fighters.

        maybe that's why i don't like floyd.

          lol freddie roach is right. pacquaio-mayweather would be boring. lion vs. mouse would be boring because of mickey mouse.

          waiting for all u ****** mayweather ball lickers to come out and say how ENTERTAINING mayweather-castillo (LOLLL the first fight that mickey mouse lost by the way) and mayweather-corrales fights were. lol they are nothing, nothing compared to tyson-berbick, ali-frazier, ali- foreman etc. p.s. mayweather-baldomir was very entertaining too lol.


          so stfu and admit it mickey mouse ain't as entertaining. i'm not trying to hate. floyd is a really good, really skilled fighter. but his style is freaking boring. would rather watch a hamster run around.
          So your point is that because Floyd is boring to watch, it means he's not great?

          Great logic..

            Fundamentally Mayweather is one of the greatest fighters to have ever stepped in the ring. He certainly seems to lack a career defining fight though, which is possibly because there isn't anyone out there capable. Perhaps Mayweather vs Pacquiao is that fight.

              Tbh, i agree with you to a certain extent. If Pac beats Hatton, Floyd will need to face Pacquiao to settle the arguement about who was no1 out the two.

              Pac will become 4 times lineal champ, first time in boxing history, hence why Floyd may be overshadowed by Pacquiao.

              Floyd will have to face him to settle the score once and for all.

                    yes, he would because styles make fights. bernard has trouble with fighters who have SPEED AND REFLEXES. doesn't mean it would be an entertaining fight. floyd would box circles around him like he did with baldomir.
