Given Floyd’s high boxing IQ - I think we can all agree, he would adapt and beat any top 5 WW out there

    Any ubias person can understand that

    l'l feller booked the date and MGM venue that Manny agreed to as well as all other conditions but for drug testing beyond standard boxing drug testing. That led to negotiations of cut off days from drug testing which sure ain't Olympic drug testing which is never negotiated. The facts after the l'l floydy farce then have proven that TBE TUE had the USADA and Vegas Commish in his pocket for the whole of his career at MGM where some 40% of his fights took place.

    Now that you're sorted, it'll be in one ear and out the other with you as you continue to butcher boxing history beyond the pale...only in today's boxing, folks...

      So what's real is, what natural all time great welterweight did Floyd beat in their prime.

      It's a statement you can't refute, and a question you want to avoid.

      Furthermore, it's the basis by which the men are separated from the boys.

      These threads keep resurfacing because Floyd has been retired for years now, yet Floyd boys are still insecure about where Floyd stacks up against the top 5 all time great welterweights. Nobody really bothers to do this with anybody else because the tippy top tier guys fought and beat atg's and hof's in their prime.

      Except Floyd.

      It's not our fault that after Hatton, Floyd thought he was top 5 at welterweight, and cherrypicked to the finish line.

        Thats not a dream my statement is rooted in fact.

        Floyd would fight Hearns after he'd been ko'd multiple times and was coming off a win on a c level opponent

        The best guys Floyd fought, were after they had been ko'd or raked thru the coals. Then they beat a fringe contender or two then Floyd feels the risk is much lower. So it's by no stretch of the imagination that Floyd would duck a big ww that could spark him out one punch

          Floyd didn't mind fighting prime bums like berto, or maidana. But floyd was calculated, and even guys like brook, thurman and spence was too much for floyd even though they're not ATGs. They were good fighters near prime or in prime.

              Well we know Floyd boys sigh like little schoolgirls when Floyd "makes adjustments" against a lightweight he dragged up two weightclasses in one fight.

                They don’t call him “TBE” for nothing son. He has fought the best out there and remained undefeated

                  Really?

                  You couldn't get him to fight a better than average welterweight in their prime, who could throw a decent jab/right hand and step to the side, yet you want the informed to believe he could "make adjustments" against the finest the division has ever seen.

                  Just because you can "make adjustments" against:

                  Guerrero
                  Ortiz
                  Madonna 2x
                  Berto
                  38 year old Shane
                  Lightweight Marquez

                  Don't mean you can do the same against:

                  Srr
                  Srl
                  Hearns
                  Pernell
                  Duran
                  Or even guys like:

                  Honeyghan
                  Starling
                  Tito
                  Norris
                  Benitez

                  Hell I'd say Donald Curry would give him a run for his money.

                  Like I said, go pull the loose hairs off those TMT pom poms

                    Floyd moved up to heavyweight and fought a fighter who was nearly 20 years younger than him. Name another fighter who did that?

                    you don’t know shit about boxing

                      So when did he ever fight at heavyweight. I must have missed something.

                      You couldn't even get him to back up his words against a shopworn middleweight GGG
