    Paul Williams had no title so what does Floyd earn from fighting him ?

    Margarito, Manny, Cotto all with Top Rank and Arum would not put his people in with Floyd not to mention Manny was scared of needles.

    Prime Shane in my previous post I explained that Floyd asked a Prime Shane for a fight and Shane refused. he couldn't answer that question because he had a tooth ache.

    Khan ? Didn't he get starched by Breidis Prescott ? Then he got knocked out by Swift Garcia. He stood no chance if Floyd fights him that is a cherry pick for sure.

    Thurman had not earned it yet.

    I know you guys just want to bring up whoever he didn't fight. Why don't you look at who he did fight and look at their credentials and the wins they were coming off of.

    You guys seem to just hate the fact that Floyd created a great legacy for himself and you refuse to give him credit.


    Since when is being critical hate? Because Floyd boys hate to hear an adverse opinion well poor you.

    If he just fought and beat the best guys in their prime these threads would fall to the wayside

    He backed out of a fight with Winky Wright thats a blatant duck.

    Manny, Shane and Cotto were far more shopworn than Floyd he don't get the same credit as if they were all prime far from it, but in Floyd boy world all that counts is the shopworn guys name for a win on the resume.

    Why is it that we don't have to do this for anybody but Floyd. Because with Floyd its always an excuse. Some grand reason why the fights don't happen. For everybody else the fights happened when both guys were prime so there's no excuses.

      Oscar didn't have to pay a penalty because he welched Floyd on the scales stop it

        Well Floyd boys still make Floyd feel good threads, so somebody has to make sure that you Floyd boys keep the overpedestalizing of mediocrity and false narratives to a minimum. We know you have done your share of both.

        Big Dunn Larry and Iron Dan big chief Floyd Boys alone probably count for over 200,000 posts of either holding his balls or defending him.

          Yup. Clear proof that he was the best of his generation.

          He hurt them emotionally. They can’t let it go. Still trying to get him back for hurting their feelings.

            But to be frank i dont think floyd is that good and would put him as underdog against GGG. Im sure many thought JMM would beat FLoyd also, because many dont think Floyd is that great. It was still a cherry pick from floyd though.
            Im sure many thought THurman, Brook, Bradley, Spence would beat floyd, even though floyd was of course favourite. So if floyd beat them, he would be better than they thought FLoyd was and give him credit. But beating them still dont make floyd great, its just people would admit they overated them and underestimated floyd.
            WTF? Floyd beat the best ww’s. You know how we all know the names you listed in this post weren’t the best at the time-none of these were names you mentioned in the post you deleted about who Floyd needed to fight and beat to be an ATG.

            Bradley ducked Floyd. Brook and Thurman lmfao. Spence was Floyd’s sparring partner.

            No matter who Floyd beat you’d move the goalposts because you’re a Manny cum gurgling nutsack gobbler still upset he easily beat Manny.

              Cherrypicking HOF

              He's straight up and down with no special effects."


              "I can't make 160 pounds...I can barely make 147. If I could go up to 155 pounds, I would beat him (GGG)...that's easy work,"

              Ok Floyd.

                It he fought and beat these guys you would find other fighters that he did not fight to complain about. It is impossible for a fighter to fight everyone it simply is not possible.

                Your statement about them being shop worn makes little sense. Floyd's hand injuries are well documented along with his should issues. All fighters are shop worn as they get older. As I stated before he was the older fighter yet out performed them. They got in the ring he beat them simple as that.

                You are the type that cannot give a fighter credit for what they do in the ring. You come off as someone that is emotionally invested and dislikes a fighter because he got a win against someone you like. Going through a a career without a loss is quite an accomplishment especially when you are fighting highly regarded competition. Give fighters their credit don't be a hater.

                Did Floyd duck wright or did his promoter the great Bob Arum end negotiations ? There is a difference. You cannot call a fighter a ducker if his promoter won't allow the fight to happen ?

                    Wtf did I say Floyd backed out of a fight with Winky Wright and you still trying to defend him. This is you cats problem accept this truth with some thicker skin and stop trying to find a consolation prize.

                    Dude there's about 35-40 all time great fighters that rank higher than Floyd and they all have losses and what's their excuse. They don't have any and we don't have to question them because they bested Floyd in beating the best guys on their resume IN THEIR PRIME and Floyd is supposed to be tbe 50-0

                    You cats make that tired two year hand excuse for Floyd meanwhile, dudes fought with hurt hands, ashy knuckles, hurt ribs, ingrown toenails, marital issues, and they rank higher than Floyd because of it. You cats sit here all day making excuse after excuse for Floyd and its clear as day at the higher weights he took his foot off the gas pedal, cherrypicked and coasted to the finish line and his low tier all time great ranking is a reflection of that. Nobody has time anymore to debate with you cats about who was more at fault at this point why fights didn't happen in a timely fashion and we already know you not holding Floyd accountable even though it was easier to get the Ortiz's of the world faster than the prime Manny's.

                    When these threads come up, and we know they will we just going to say what needs to be said and stay out of the name calling and mud slinging Floyd boys like to do when nobody agrees or sympathizes with them.
