    Well Floyd was going to get refs to separate fast and grab the opponent so there is no chance to land

    In the previous era , especially with refs like Steele, you would hear the ref say no holding punch and get out.

        They found the scale, that disappeared when Floyd was supposed to next day weigh in, that time he welched Marquez on the scales

          You must be a Brit.
          Hatton was beaten from post to pillar by Collazo in his American debut. Hatton got perhaps the greatest robbery decision I’ve ever seen. You should listen from the commentary by the HBO folks. But but but I’m sure you’ll have a different take on that fight and pull a whattaboutsim.

          Hatton would have never beaten Floyd even if the fight was in his backyard and the ref was his own brother, Matthew.
          Where wad Hatton’s “inside game” when he was vaporized by PAC?

            Those CW were conditions stipulated by Freddi Roach so his guy could win.
            The Marquez CW was Marquez’s own decision. He called out Floyd and then offered to meet Floyd at 144.

            But but but … your logic dictates that had Marquez would have beaten Floyd had he made 144 Ibs.
            The same logic that Hatton would have beaten Floyd if they had a different ref.

            You know what defies logic? The same “small” Marquez vaporized PAC with a singular punch. It was spectacular and beautiful if I may add.
            And PAC vaporized Mr Inside Game expert in two rounds.

            Make it make sense.

              Mr Johnny Come Lately just joined and starts with the Old and tired toxic diatribe. Gee! In less than a month of joining this platform you are spewing lies and hate, what will happen in 12 months?

He had the right idea when he called out Winky Wright but when he backed out why didn't you think nobody would question his heart to go through with it.
                ——-
                There was certainly an opportunity for Floyd to fight Tszyu - in 2005 WHEN FLOYD MOVED UP TO 140 Ibs.

                Isn’t that was Bud did when he moved to 140? He beat every belt holder. Did the order of he fought matter to you?

                So Floyd started with Gatti and is on record saying he will go after Hatton, Cotto and Tszyu but you and your revisionist history, fueled by hate choose to leave context.
                Tszyu got beat by Hatton.
                Cotto and Hatton both refused to fight Floyd. Both stated they weren’t ready to fight a guy that started his career at 130.

                Here’s the difference between you and I - I acknowledge PAC’s win over Thurman was a great win. I was hoping Thurman KO’s him but PAC was incredible. Also, no amount of “inside game” büllshǐt was going to save Hatton from that savage beating he took.
                My thoughts on PAC aren’t fueled by toxic hate. I acknowledge his true grit wins and call out his dubious wins.

                You on the other hand, just have a toxic hate for Floyd. Floyd could have unified the 140 and 147 division, you’d still shǐt on him.

                  I am not saying any of that.

                  The fact is the contract was for 144 catchweight. Marquez was climbing up two weight classes in one fight.

                  Floyd welched Marquez on the scales and paid the penalty for weighing over the limit.

                  Fight was a boring one sided mismatch that only a Floyd boy could appreciate.

                  A whole division of welterweights and Floyd cherrypicks a lightweight

                    That fight was a boring one-sided mismatch you say? Well, thanks for acknowledging the greatness of Floyd.
                    Why do I say that? Because that same Marquez arguably beat your boy Pacqiao three times and vaporized him with a single punch in their last fight.

                    So you are saying Pacqiao also cherry-picked a lightweight to fight? Because PAC weighed in at 147 and Marquez was 143 yet Marquez still destroyed the bigger guy.

                    A whole division of Welterweights yet your boy fights small guys. He even managed to bring up Brandon Rios to 147 to beat him. Rios had just lost to Alvarado. Why not fight Alvarado?
                    I wish I was making this shǐt up. Unbelievable!!

                      Real boxing fans know the deal, its the same few empty heads that sing the same BS, around and around no matter how many times you kick the sht out of them. I doubt you would talk to them in real life as they would be some kind of braindead weirdo just a waste of space.
