    How do you avoid the welterweight division for two years, come back and fight a lightweight

      Floyd's disappearing act is 2nd to none, likely learnt from Houdini. To be fair to floyd l learnt some dissapearing tricks from floyd too.

        If you had treated TBE with the respect he deserves then maybe he would have invited you to his place too, where you could see it. You need to think about these things before you start running your mouth. Nash out. - His Most Majestic Majesty

              Why would TBE not have a life-sized poster of someone as esteemed as Boxingscene Hall of Famer Nash out in his house! Of course he has it. Nash out - His Most Majestic Majesty

                    These are the best guys on Floyd's resume and Manny beat them
                    You’re lying. The best guys on Floyd’s resume are:

                    Manny
                    odh
                    Canelo
                    mosley
                    JMM
                    Cotto
                    Corrales

                    Manny didn’t beat Canelo. Canelo would ko Manny. He didn’t beat Corrales. Floyd beat Cotto at a ful 154, not a CW.

                      I get you don’t like him but to suggest the sport doesn’t need that kind of attraction is just plain dumb.

                      Dont let your feelings make you post ****** stuff that is detrimental to the sport. You may find him boring ( because he isn’t a clueless slugger like your hero) but most don’t. The numbers show this.

                      The sport absolutely needs a guy that gets it out of the mud. That doesn’t start as the cash cow but works his way up to that spot by fighting and beating progressively better opponents.

                      The sport absolutely needs another boxer that resonates with mainstream fans and draws them to the sport.

                      Hate Floyd all you want but don’t be the kind of partisan simpleton that posts things that hurt the sport because he beat your idol.
                      He was never a clueless slugger. That said, all the numbers are because of the dance partners involved. I know he knew how to market himself well and in return, he collected a lot of massive paychecks. That doesn't take away how I feel from watching him fight. He's just boooooooring. Granted, I'd put that same energy into any other fighter who are mostly safety first type fighters. I do enjoy watching a boxer who can punch and is technical. Nothing wrong with that.

                      I know, I know, Jr. was more aggressive when he was younger, well... he wasn't when he got popular.
