    The rest of the wall of text is so full of wrong I could not be bothered addressing each one, its funny but I don't believe a word you say, I think youre another hater that doesn't know much about boxing, just another alt spewing hate.
    That means he is spot on.

      If Pac was clean he would not have refused the tests and the fight would have happened.

      I have no problem with Floyd refusing to fight PED users.

      Floyd's career looks nothing like Robinson's, but he didn't fight in that era.

      When I look at Floyd's career, from 130 to 154 with the guys he's fought, no one else from his era would have that record.

      He's the the greatest from his era.

        What spot on, you mean you being a idiot, yeah I agree.

        Any hate is spot on to you that's so obvious, what other threads do you post in that don't have Floyd in them, 99% of replies to your posts slap the sht out of you, so you latch onto any hate from some other moron as your lifeline, how many times have I told you you are a moron that knows nothing about boxing, you cant answer the simplest of questions because you drown every time, lol pathetic.

            All you Floyd Boys do the same stuff

            Make excuses with Floyd quotes for backup, name call like a third grader, anyone who disagrees is a hater who doesn't know anything about boxing. Same tired schtick. Nobody even bothers to respond to your excuses anymore. I know that irks you.

            The whole world says Floyd was a cherrypicker, yet somehow because you say otherwise, people are supposed to change their minds, gtfoh

            This guy. You claimed to know Jeff Fenech.
            You still couldn't prove it by putting one foto of you and Jeff hanging.

            Guess what. Not everyone is on the Floyd train. Hooked onto the caboose like you. Well I forgot you riding it with Big Dunn and BodyBagz

              Complete nonsense

              Let's relive Pac's resume, shall we -

              Fights 1-40, Farmers and food vendors

              Marco B. After SIXTY TWO fights (I guess a person is still prime after 50+ fights ), he fightsMarco the 1st time
              And 4 years later, why not fight again !!!!

              JMM 4x (with one *...2-1-1...could have easily have been 0-1-3)...As entertaining as they were, especially the 4th fight , who needs 4 fights to settle a score with JMM ?!?!?
              He's a warrior and I'm a fan but, damn. Only Pac needed 4 bites from the apple.

              Erik M. After FIFTY fights (I guess a person is still prime after 50+ fights) he fights Erik 3x (2-1)....

              I'm a fan of all 3 of these guys but let's be honest ( ), they are not the most difficult fighters to prep against.
              They all fight in one speed, in one direction.
              One can say they don't mind eating punches or are fleet of foot.
              Prototypical Pac opponents.

              Moving on......

              Between Marco, JMM and Erik, Pac fought legends like Larios, Solis, Velazquez, Diaz

              Now we get to his GAUNTLET !!!!

              Shot AF DLH*....May did it 1st.
              Pac Bois called DLH a glorified promoter when May beat him and that no one ever beat DLH* like Pac did
              Well, no one but Pac had the opportunity to fight the absolute worst version of DLH

              Hatton....May did it 1st and Hatton is not a W I'd brag about. Hyped AF. I'm shocked Pac didn't put a clause on Hatton !

              Cotto. You better believe he put a clause on Cotto* !!!!
              Hell no Pac was going to take a chance and NOT put a clause on Cotto.
              Pac may look like an idiot but the boy knows better.
              Declined to fight Cotto without a *.

              4th rate gatekeeper
              Clottey...pretty much a sparring session (no clause )

              Shot AF Margarito*...Again, Pac put a clause on the worst version of a guy !!!!

              Less than prime Mosley (no clause )...May did it 1st and better.

              Timmy 'Desert Breeze' Bradley 3x (should have been 3-0 but Pac was robbed the 1st fight. Did it 2x times to set the record straight !).
              He was aight I guess. Best W might have been JMM.

              Baby Margarito Rios (no clause )....Prime or otherwise, this ''fight'' should not have been made

              Shot Algieri*. Not sure why Pac felt a needed to put a clause on him.....

              MAY ....Pac reasoning was he suffered a debilitating arm injury in training camp. No evidence of this injury during any part of the fight.

              Some feather fisted guy named Vargas
              . Of course, no clause

              Part time school teacher HORN (CPGW). How this ever got sanctioned still baffles me.
              I felt Pac won wide. I've seen drunk ******s fight better than Horn.
              This was one L Pac was not interested in setting straight !!!!

              Shot Lucas

              Shot Broner

              Sometime....
              The one guy Pac Bois cling to
              A shot Gatekeeper nearly beat him before Pac did.

              Basic AF Ugas

              After future HOFer Ugas showed Pac the door, Pac TALKED about coming back to fight Bud and Spence !!!!
              What he actually did was ''fight'' a youtuber. Hoping to cash in on the money May is making. He failed.

              And there you have it.

              Edit -
              I'm not even sure if any of those farmers and food vendors were prime

                Manny fought the same shopworn version of Oscar that Floyd did, except he beat the brakes off him. Floyd boys been making excuses ever since

                  May is only 2 years younger than Mosley.
                  A younger Mosley would have been fighting a younger May.
                  Don't know what kind of point you were trying to make but you failed.

                  Pac would have been KTFO if that right landed on him.
                  Pac has been KO'd by worse fighters multiple times.​

                  He fought Mosley immediately after Mosley KILLED Margarito.
                  The 1 man Pac Bois bend the knee to more than Pac.

                    Pac fought a Shot DLH with an added * for good measures

                    The DLH May fought would have slept Pac and no post editing would have saved him.

                    • You'd think a Pac Boi would do a detailed breakdown of May's ''cherrypicked'' resume

                      They know better
                      They HATE details
