    RA could be recording a album across the street from me and i would know who the **** he is nore would 99% of people who listen to rap. And the reason for that is because He sucks.

      I don't see a contradiction, just the sentiments echoed by the boxing community at large.

      He may have gotten some small details wrong while in the heat of the moment, but don't act like he was entirely off base.

      Floyd never even entertained the thought of fighting anyone mentioned.

      Just kept brushing it to the side.


      Regarding Leonards loss to Camacho "he shouldn't have fought him then".


      Is that really the attitude you want from one of the most talented fighters ever?


      You seem to be pretty bright, don't let your youth fool you into becoming a hardcore *****. Many of us think you're better than that.

      It sucks when our favorite fighters make us fans look foolish, but it happens.

      5 years Spacey, 5 years in the welterweight division without a single meaningful fight against a top tier opponent.

      Don't give me that **** about Carlos or Zab either. At that time, both had been exposed as being highly beatable. Sometimes, the ****ty guys make it to the top, but we know they're ****ty because they never last long.

      Floyd has the talent, but lacks the huevos to really shine.


      Hes screwing all of us over by not making these great matchups, but just talking about what he would do.



      btw, he went the right way about it. Kenny tried doing it the right way and what happens?

      "you're not a boxer, you don't know nothing about it".

      "ok Floyd, I work for ESPN, I can't say what I really want to say".
      Kenny didn't go the right way about it either, there are suttle ways to go about it.

      I said I understood the overall concept... fight the best, and you will be considered one of the best (already an ATG, but can be a bigger ATG by fighting 3 names), believe me... I understand that and agree with that fully... as a Floyd fan, but a Boxing fan first.

      But... he contradicted himself and made himself look like a hypocrite several times, and I am just saying, people shouldn't bash Floyd for contradicting and not somebody else... that's doulbe standards and fair is fair. And he got more than a few little details wrong, he got a lot of things wrong, and then bashed Floyds saying "I know ALL the history Floyd, I know more than you!" then went on to get things from this so called load of history knowledge wrong, the only thing that we can all agree with is the overall message that was sent "fight the best and you will get the overall respect you deserve" as you said.

      But, in RA's defense, Floyd as the Boxer should have handled the pressure better, plenty of stars get pressured in interviews, do I agree with it? No, but it happens so people can sell themselves... so Floyd should of kept his cool, but instead got pissed and made himself look pretty ****** too.

      After the interview, both guys made themselved look a little ****** and RA sounded like a hypocrite, but his overall message was right... and I respect him for being a Boxing fan and wanting that to happen. What I don't respect is when a star calls in to your radio show and disrespecting him, he is doing them a favor by getting people to tune in, show some respect... he was doing RA a favor cause it helped popularise his radio show.

      But, I do agree with you... Floyd should fight them, cause it will enhance his legacy, and as a Boxing fan I wanna see big fights... but I just wanted to be fair here. Don't worry either, I aint a nut hugger or a *****, Floyd is my favorite fighter... but when I think he is wrong I will say (like when he was getting racial a few months ago... I honestly called him out on it). And you are right, sometimes the fighter can make the fans look ******, it happens.

      Your a cool guy and I have nothing against you personally like you seem cool with me, but obviously from time to time we will have different opinions on certain things. But I know that your a Boxing fan overall.

        LOL. I love how you just pulled that one out of your ass. Pathetic really.
