    He let him weigh in at a whopping 110 lbs


    Remind me, how did Pac's fights with May and Horn end
    I keep forgetting

      A 10% risk pac did very well against floyd, arguably won......Floyd's best win? Against horn he was robbed too, but pacs fault didn't want rematch with horn.

        Yeh, I don't know of these sources. I wouldn't take them seriously.
        Pac s did things others in history haven't that's why most boxing fans without thinking have pac above floyd. Floyd's more remembered for what he didn't do, and not having a reasonable explanation of why he didn't do it!
        Things like why he didn't fight abroad, why he used a catch weight against nelo, why he didn't rematch his biggest adversaries more, why he didn't fight toughest opponents available in own division consistently etc etc?I
        I could go on, but most people get my drift.

          Well with Floyd it ended the way it began with Floyd fighting scared. Running and holding. His pops told him he was fighting scared.


          With Horn Manny was robbed.

            There's really no explanation for avoiding almost a dozen prime fighters in your own division.

              Yes, I gave up long ago of trying to get a legit explanation. Only realistic reason was trying to keep his zero. No explanation for fighting in own country only too, other than for advantages.
              That's what Floyd's remembered for. People wanted to see him lose, so every time floyd chose to fight the maidans, guerreros, and berto s of this world was a kick in the face, people won't forgive floyd for that

                I agree instead of just holding people accountable, excuses are made

                    I thought you meant lists that mattered.
