ok..honestly how many people have seen more than 3-4 floyd fights??

[THE REED]

Ive seen them all... I have 2 career sets on dvd... Floyd and Roy.

[S.G.]

everything post-Pep

just bits and pieces of his pre-Pep fights

[Ravishing]

cause people think he's never been in wars and cant fight on the inside which is strange if youve actually follwed his career.....the man is a monster in the pocket..he is very adaptable..and jmm wanting to war with him will just gey him ko'd that much quicker

I've been following Floyd's career since late '98.

I wouldn't say he's been in any real wars, he knows how to conduct himself and does indeed know how to adapt. But obviously, that's only as good as the fighters you fight. Guys like Castillo and Chop Chop gave him good fights (especially Castillo) and had a very good outing (possibly his best) against Coralles. But since then, It's been more lackluster than pure excitement. Will Floyd be able to rewind the clock and put on a Gatti-eque or Carrolas-esque performance? Seems as if he almost has to.

i feel the same way, i am a big jmm fan, also a pbf fan, but money does have awesome infighting skills. dude does not get hit no matter how close you get. i dont think jmm has a chance.

Exactly, I try to be a unbiased when it comes to boxing, Marquez is my boy but even I have a hard time seeing him beat Floyd, I admire Floyd's ability in the ring, he is a genius, its just his attitude that keeps me from being a fan...:[

[LA BAD BOY]

I ve seen 10+ Floyd fights.
My favorite fight is when Castillo beat him and got robbed heavy!

[The Gambler1981]

I have watched win his medal at the Olympics. I followed his early career watched him batter Genaro, then I remember being amped to watch Mayweather-Manfready (that was for Fighter of the year~) been watching ever since.

It is very easy to pick out who has watched his fights and who has not.

ok, honestly, how many boxers has larry discussed more than 3-4 times?

[El Jesus]

I have seen the Judah fight, DLH fight, Hatton fight, Gatti fight, Chico fight and pieces of the Castillo fights...he is a great fighter, but I would like to see him in the ring with a fighter almost or as intelligent as him, I hope Marquez meant by "Mexican War" that he will never give up and not walk forward because that will be disastrous for him.

the only fighters who are as intelligent as him are older and have one foot out. Calderon, Hopkins, Toney, Calzhage are all much bigger and retiring, there is no one after that who comes close. Most of the other guys who pose a threat to him are either bigger, or in pacs case, can pac a hard punch with volume. But as far as intelligence, no one near his weight division has displayed they are on his level in the ring as far as IQ goes.

[Fox McCloud]

Dweins there isnt a fighter in the sport that does it on the inside better then Floyd

I've already seen those...

I mean, really, I know you aren't going to sit here and tell me that Castillo didn't have success against Floyd, even if you believe Floyd won both fights. Castillo won quite a few rounds against Mayweather.

So... how did he win those rounds? Is your argument that he outboxed Mayweather from the outside? Castillo showed, in a head-to-head matchup, that he is a better inside fighter than Floyd.

at the time ndou was a problem and his k.o ratio was crazy

He'd also never been out of South Africa, and his only big win was Cassius Baloyi... it went the distance.

He has not been in wars. The Burton fight is the hardest fight he has been in and i dont consider that a hard fight.

Jesus Chavez,Castillo 1 are his next hardest fights, but i dont think they were what i would consider hard fights. More competitive the normal but not hard/tough fights.
