    That's right keep making excuses excuses excuses Mosley was the best 135 fighter in his prime.

    I guess you rather find solace in Floyd getting no credit for beating geriatric Mosley

      Calling someone out has been done by pretty much everyone.

      Reading is fundamental he called Winky out, sat down at the negotiating table, then backed out at the last minute.

        So he ducked Winky? That’s where your hate stems from?
        A 130 pound fighter elects not to fight a 154 Ibs fighter after saying he wants to fight him.

        Ok. You win this debate.

          I find no solace in Floyd not getting credit or getting credit? I thought reading was fundamental.

          I guess YOU find solace in PAC beating … let’s list them and provide context;
          • 135: The best guy at 135, The ATG David Diaz.
          • 140: The best guy at 140 was Hatton & had already been KO’d by Floyd. There were other title holders at 140 that PAC ducked.
          • 147: Oscar: The last time Oscar fought at 147 was 2002. He was too drained and couldn’t even move.
          • Cotto: 147 Catchweight - Roach was on record stating “I have to give my guy every advantage I can get”. That statement just says it all.
          • Clottey: He’d just lost to Cotto so why make this fight?
          • GERIATRIC Mosley had lost to Floyd. Can you imagine if it was Floyd that fought Mosley after Mosley had lost to PAC?
          • Brandon Rios: Rios had just lost to Alvarado at 140 & was moving up to 147.
          • Broner: Had lost two fights and had one draw. He was irrelevant and yet the great PAC elected to fight him.
          • Mathysse: Another irrelevant guy at 147. Had lost his last big fight to Danny Garcia and was trying to rebuild against BUMS.
          • Jeff Horn: I know you didn’t know who this was before he faced PAC?
          • Chris Algieri: Same as Horn. You had no idea who he was but I’m sure it was a win for the ages for your idol.
          • Bradley: The ATG Bradley.
          • Margarito: He had literally been destroyed by Mosley and yet PAC demanded a catchweight so as to get a dubious vacant title at 154.​
          But you can stay fixated on the undefeated consensus ATG trying your best to discredit his record, opponents and ATG PPV record which will never be be broken.

          Lastly, didn’t your boy fight a Korean YouTuber just last year? Still trying to emulate Floyd and you are still fixated Floyd’s exhibitions long after he retired. You were one of those that said PAC would never taint his legacy fighting some random kickboxers. Well, well, your boy is busy fighting YouTubers.

            didnt floyd duck everyone good??? also floyd wasnt at 130 when he called him out and you know that. also look what happened Winky agreed to fight Floyd at 154 with a rehydration clause of 8 pounds. did floyd not fight cotto, oscar at 154? after they were well past it of course, not prime winky though. floyd just got his bluff called. he didnt think winky would ever agree to be drained so much so floyd decided to change the money, same thing happened when pac called his bluff, first it was random testing, then it was 14 days, then it was 0, then it was floyd gets all the money? thats called taking someones dignity and thats why floyd is a fraud. he loved to fight in the media but not so much in the ring oh unless its baldomir type opponents or old men, then hes up for the fights ​

                PBF/May would still have an 0 if he had Pac's resume

                So, there's that.

                  This is the perfect response. I hadn’t looked at it that way.
                  Meanwhile, PAC gets beat by at least 15 of the guys on Floyd’s resume.

                    Cotto without a clause ends him.

                      The versions of Mosley Cotto and Oscar that Floyd beat all beat Manny that's why he refused to fight them without CWs except Mosley who he waited out until shot after drawing with a B grader, he would have been Koed by what Floyd took from those Mosley big shots, and 154 Cotto and Oscar destroy him, Manny was a great fighter but he is not near the level Floyd is, I think that's what irritates the May haters so much he was just best of generation and they hate it lol.
