    What is your point?
    SRL also waited until Hagler was on the slide both Mentally and Physically; he said so himself.

    Plus, SRL had nothing to lose; he already lost his "O." Fighters will take more risks once they lost their "O" in my opinion.

    Floyd's not going to risk his "O" coming off a long layoff against a fighter like Shane who looked great in his last fight out...

      Because aint Floud in 2 years.

      hes a fighter that relies on timing..speed and reflexes all things that wither away the longer you go without boxing.

      You dont think Winky wishes he wouldve had a tune up fight.

        SRL looked to his friend at the Hagler fight and said" I can beat ths guy now"..Hagler was on the decline so Ray fought him.

        No one else has did what SRL done so stop putting on Floyd..Cotto..Marg...Mosley none of them have done it either.

          Doesn't matter what Ray thought about Marvin and his "slide",

          the fact remains, Ray was out three years and went up in weight and challenged the long standing middleweight champion.


          Floyd is out a year and a half and

          signs to fight


          a super featherweight?


          And this is the guy you want to call the eras best?

              simple insult to say you are beneath me...

              Floyd insults his opponents in the same manner.

              Have a source so I can see when he said it and in what context

                You're on a boxing website, do your own research.

                  Ray had nothing to lose. His "O" was gone and if he lost to Hagler, no big deal. He could just go back into retirement.

                  If Floyd loses to Shane because of the layoff, he loses his "O" and it might destroy the rest of his career for marketability.

                    It would be easier for you to get me the source. You would know where to look faster.
