Floyd hasn't get credit for any of his 39 wins, he won't get credit for his 40th win apparently. Why are they gonna change their hating ways and give him credit for his 41st win? against anybody.
Haters Excuse Book:
Manfredy=C-Class Fighter
Chavez=Wasn't All That To Begin With
Gerena=Past Prime
Hernandez=Past Prime
Diego Corrales=Too Big For Floyd/Floyd Should Have Been The Favorite
Jose Luis Castillo=He Didn't Win That Fight/Rematches Don't Count
Corley=Cotto Beat Him Faster
Gatti=Washed Up
Mitchell=Too Small Even though floyd Was Coming Up In Weight To Fight Him
Judah=Had Lost To Baldomir/Wasn't A Top WW
Baldomir=Journeymen/Wasn't All That To begin With
De La Hoya=Too Old/Over The Hill
Hatton=Overhyped/Pacquiao Beat Him Faster
Marquez=Too Small
Pacquiao=Too Small
Mosley=Too Old/Past Prime
Paul Williams=Weight Drained/Fight Him at 154
Miguel Cotto=Damaged Goods/He Was Done After The Margarito Fight
Victor Ortiz=Too Small

Pac also was KTFO TWICE in the lower weight divisions and was put down several times back then.
We also have more divisions today. And yes, we had fighters in the past that were small guys facing HW fighters.
And if you look at the HW division it is so wide with weight that we can factor that in especially. Look at Holyfield vs. Bowe, Lewis, etc.
Chris Byrd won a Silver Medal in the Olympics as a MW at 22 years old and then went on to train/eat his way up to HW because that was his goal...HW Champion. Byrd faced guys like Wlad and Vitali, IKE, Tua, McCline, Holyfield, Golota...even tried to get a fight with Lewis when they were both Champions. Yet where is his respect?
How about Sam Langford?
How about Barbados Joe Walcott?
And if we brake down the fights, how many times has Pac been out-weighed on fight-night...and by how much?
Can we compare Pac to someone that is out-weighed by 10-50 pounds come the actual fight?Last edited by Benny Leonard; 05-31-2009, 05:31 PM.Comment

floyd was wearing bulletproof vest fighting when he was 16 in the amateurs and lost 6x,he would've gotten koed without haedgear....pac got ktfo by war veterans in his teens in the pros a decade ago.....Comment

Floyd wasn't KTFO though, was he?
And how many fights did Floyd have in comparison to those losses?
I understand the difference between amateur and Pro...and I understand what Pac had to deal with...but,
Like I've said many times before: Keep bringing up the 106, and overall, it all matters. He was KTFO TWICE back then and was placed on the mat other times.Comment
