    Carlos Quintana was a 147 Ibs guy and he beat Williams. Would you say Quintana has better attributes than Floyd?

    I’m not saying Floyd would win. 6”4 is tall order to overcome but he did get beat by Quintana.
    And Lara just trashed him at 154lbs.

      Come on bruh! Why you gotta leave out context?

      One could say Oscar ducked Winky, Forrest, Williams etc.
      Or PAC ducked everyone at 135 except the lone fight he had. He also ducked everyone at 140 except the once beaten Hatton. Or he ducked everyone at 147 unless he was fighting them at catchweight or they were coming off losses.
      We’re also hearing Boots is ducking everyone and Crawford is ducking Boots.

      Everyone is ducking someone based on how we like or dislike them. Just to give you an example of context, Vernon Forrest fought Baldomir right after Baldomir had lost to Floyd.
      Forrest was also destroyed by the ATG Mayorga.
      When exactly did Floyd duck Cintron and Clottey? This is a first I hear of that.

        Ok. I never said he ducked them, per se. I said there were many strong available and willing guys his size who for whatever reason, he never fought. It could have been the business wasn't right. I'm just saying the bottom line is he didnt face a lot of strong, credible guys who were around at that time

          This is a fair argument to make. We’re hearing the same sentiments about Crawford and Tank.
