Comments Thread For: Roy Jones: Pacquiao Leaves an Absolutely Marvelous Legacy, Will Not Regret Loss To Mayweather

Thats one way to look at it.

You can also say Floyd didn't agree to the cutoff date for blood testing.

We can also say that you said if Floyd fought Pacquaio it would be a cherry pick and he should fight a real challenge in Mosley instead.

Its funny how Roy Jones, who always keeps it 100, is now an official Floyd hater because he saw that Manny was the one from day one trying to make a fight with Floyd.

[Oregonian]

Floyd was a fan of Manny during that time. People thought Manny would get crushed by DLH when Manny was moving up.

That doesn’t even come close to answering my question - why didn’t PAC go after Floyd from 2005-2008?

[Jab jab boom]

No, it's Floyd fans trying to make out unbeaten records is what people respect is akin to lieing. Ignoring what a fighter does to keep unbeaten record is lieing to yourself.
Floyd fans should accept everyone loses and it's how you comeback which is what interests fans

That may be a factor but the primary fans that harp on that fight are you pac fans who can’t move on and in an attempt to diminish the loss, either minimize Floyd as a boxer (which you did above), make excuses for the loss or deny that it was actually a loss.

Wrong. I'm a massive PAC fan . I never even took their fight 5 yrs past it due date seriously in the first place. Floyd fought him when he wanted to fight him . Floyd was the A side money wise. He called the shots. The fight should've taken place no later than 2010-11. Everyone knows it but Floyd fans. Did Floyd win the fight ? Yes, he won the fight . I had Floyd up 3 points. But the fight was the biggest con job in the history of boxing. Both way past their prime.

Yep same here. Pac fan and that fight was a farce. It happened when Pac wasn't looking like Pac anymore. His true fans knew that already and were just hoping for the best. Whatever happened is like, expected that... I just find it funny Roy had to say good things but throw that in for good measure.

I'm looking at Pac's entire body of work when I look at his career. It is mountains higher than just the Fraud Jr. fight. I consider his WW run a second part of his career even. If you look at what he did below 140lbs, that is more work than some of those fighters have done themselves and retired...

We can and it would have been true had he not waited until Mosley was pushing 40 and had grey hair, but we know, Mosley beat Margarito two years prior and was a paper champ.

We know you Floyd Boys will give Floyd full credit for beating has beens.

As long as you can roll them down the isle and prop 'em up, you'll give Floyd full credit for beating them.

Shane beat Margs January 2009. Floyd beat Shane May 2010, about 5 months after you created a thread in NSB stating he should fight Shane next.

If Mosley was such a “has been” at that point, why did you create the thread stating Floyd had to fight him next ( which he did) and why did you pick him to beat Floyd?

Dude, Manny was still campaigning at the lower weights then. Like in 06, Manny fought Morales x2, and Larios(sp?). It wasnt till 08 that Manny fought DLH, the Philippines/lawmakers were trying to create a law banning Manny from fighting Oscar bc he was too big for Manny.

Ha this story gets better and better.

Brian Kenny questioned Floyd about taking two years off and fighting a lightweight Marquez, when Shane, Cotto, Margarito, Manny Paul Williams, and the whole ww division was calling him out for 2 years, and guess what he was absolutely right and Floyd knew it. Thats why he got pissed off because Kenny wouldn't allow him to dance all around the questions.

Actually said he cherrypicked Marquez because Marquez had a country behind him. Now thats a hell of a justification for a cherrypick.

Shane beat Margarito and fought Floyd a year and a half later when he was 38. Floyd went ahead and fought Marquez, a complete waste of time fight, and ultimately Shane had to get in the ring and call Floyd out to his face. Floyd was still trying to duck by saying Shane didn't draw as big as Marquez. What kind of croc is that.

Floyd finally grows a pair, and he and Shane finally fight and its obvious Shane had seen better days.

You show me where I picked anybody to beat anybody I got 20 bucks on it.

Get to digging and please don't try to alter my words we know how you slick Floyd boys try to put words in people's mouths.

You got 24 hours.

So we went from 2 years to a year and a half. Lie #1 disproven.

Sure buddy. The same guy who had a toothache.

Floyd returned and fought JMM. You’re complaining that he returned and fought the #2 p4p boxer in the sport at 146 lbs. ok.

You hadn’t made the thread yet calling for him to fight Floyd. When you made it, Floyd fought Mosley the next fight.

I didn’t see you pick Shane in that thread when I found it. You likely deleted it. Wish I had caught it early so I could sig it so you can’t lie like Hugh grant.
