    If Haney gets into the ring 165 with an IV bag while he fights at 140, how does Floyd get in the ring 155 when he fights 154 and also uses an IV Bag ? One has to do a mandatory commissioned weigh in and the other didn’t.

      If Floyd was to be taking gear, which I personally would say almost definitely he was, you still need all the other components aswell; Heart, talent, skills, IQ, work ethic, chin, etc etc etc.

      Gear won't make someone a great fighter, it just enhances what they already have.
      All true in the real world, but the part I dont like is it can be said about any great in any sport, do they ever really get the credit for the years of work they put in, and then hecklers that never do anything have the last say, just something about the Tall Poppy syndrome thats all messed up in the human physic.

        Haney is not Floyd. That important fact seems to have a very hard time penetrating your bonehead.

            I doubt Floyd was clean and I doubt most of his contemporaries were cles either. .

              Dude... Did you ever figure your credability might need some "roids"after you made one of how many allegations? Just now on this thread, You just claimed something that was false about Floyd, and were corrected (Froyd got an exemption for a roid you claimed) never acknowledged the correction, and made a similar far fetched allegation this post. Slow down!!!

              Welter was always talent laden. Whether fighters are more workmanlike and skilled in the manner of someone like Madiana or Regis Progras, or truly special, nobody can hang around at that weight class. A more logical proposition would be: Floyd broke his record and may have wanted to retire earlier. At least that makes sense...

                ?? Really? Could either of you guys xplain to someone slow like me how that makes sense? I mean Floyd "the ducker extradonaire" couldn't he have found another Berto, to beat up on? And to my limited logic it almost seems like Floyd would have relished fighting a bit more but for the risk of losing the "0."

                Yet here I am being informed that it was in fact for the level of competition coming up. Hummm????

                  Add up everything and reach your own conclusions.
                  Now THAT... whether one believes it, or not, is a well reasoned conclusion! I mean it is no solid proof, but the correlations are real, it makes sense.

                    What is smaller or bigger here, Individuals of similar overall dimension will have many different variables that can make them far apart in weight, , give me time with both to measure bone densities, skin thickness, fat and muscle compositions, blood volume etc and I can give you an accurate answer, how thick do you think your skull is compared to other poster of the same height and build?

                      I can feel your frustration I get it too, haters have their own language that will always confuse stand up people, man is born to strive and achieve and the best achievers get hated on by the ones that cant achieve anything, the world is all fkd up lol
