      tHE ONLY REASON HATTON WENT UP WAS TO FIGHT HIM
      THE SAME REASON JMM WENT UP
      DOES THAT MAKE HIM A LEGIT WW?
      *** NO

      SEE THIS IS WHY PEOPLE HATE FLOYD LARRY
      (OOPPPS CAPS)

      FANS like you are delusional
      you never say anything to discredit him or say yeah he got a gift (castillo)
      or he ducked fighters (margs)
      or man he should step up the competition

      I love SSM but I admit he is acting like a little biatch right now. You and Floyds "fans" can never admit stuff

      If baldo was so great and lineal champ why the fook didnt he do anything after?
      cause he was a bum in a weak division at the time
      All the top WW moved up to 154 at that time

      come on larry just admit it
      you will feel better after
      THE TRUTH SHALL SET YOU FREE!

        I respect dude's craft to the fullest, but he hasn't had a real challenge in years...not because nobody was there, but because he chose not to fight them. Tough for me to support a dude like that who claims he's the best yet hasn't fought other fighters out there who claim the same (and have a legit claim behind it).

            If Floyd wants people to appreciate him more, he needs to shut his mouth and stop acting like a bafoon on national television and show it in the ring.

            He needs to stop ducking fighters and actually fight them instead of talking.

            Nobody likes a braggart.

                Ok, as long as we know he didn't clear out his third division, let alone his fourth.

                  that's his problem, he doesn't mae may mistakes and he's afraid to take chances. He doesn't like being pushed. Zab, Ricky, Oscar, and Jose Luis Castillo all pushed him. When they were effective, floyd would shoulder roll, hold, and really not do anything. If he would fight somebody that would turn up the heat and maintain the temperature the whole fight, he's in deep ****. That's never gonna happen though, he doesn't fight to see who's the best and apparently nobody is a ppv attraction. Can't believe this guy still has all of the 5 fans he's got on this forum. He's such a punk.

                    People hate Floyd because he cherrypicks his opponents, despite being the most skilled and being the smartest fighter of his generation. He fights for money and fame and not for glory.

                    Personally, I don't blame him for this. After all, boxing is a business and as long as his fans are letting him get away with it, he'll make his coin. I don't buy his ppv, so I don't have a problem with him.

                    Just don't cry when he gets criticized because facts are facts.

                    I actually loved watching Floyd against JLC, Corrales, Hernandez, Augustus and all the fights before JLC II. What a beaut to watch. He had power at the lighter weights, as well. Wasted talent, if you ask me because, in the end, he could have been top 15 - top 10.

                    Floyd is the smartest man in boxing, in and out of the ring.
