      I agree with your assessment of the fight when it happens. I also get where you are going with the way Floyd picks and chooses his opponents. It is a strategy that has been done time and time again. De la Hoya, Roy Jones, Jack Dempsey, Julio Cesar Chavez and Sugar Ray Leonard all subscribed to that same playbook. It is a somewhat tradition that many of the greatest fighters in the history of the sport have followed. I don't agree with it, but it is allowed to happen.

        You people need to understand one simple thing:

        Sometimes people are good enough that they get special passes in areas where others have to earn it. As much as people hate Floyd, you cannot deny his amazing boxing ability. Yes, he could have fought more people in his career, but you can't change that now.

        You want a challenge for him? Then set up Pacman for 2010.

        Bam.

          If I was a Floyd fan I wouldn't be able to either. Its bull****, but its the way it is. Thats why I put stock into opinions from fans of the sport and not those of nuthuggers and haters that hate just for the sake of it.

            Tell me how those lists are all that different? How one guy is so unworthy when they have faced 3 common opponents, 1 so-so guy and another guy who is good but not great~
            Manny has moved up to fight the best in their own divisions. Floyd makes the best from other divisions move up and fight him. If you can see the difference there, I don't know what to tell you.

              Glad you understand that

              Lets hope for 2 things. There is a decisive winner in the Mayweather vs. Pacquiao fight. And that Mayweather doesn't retire and faces winner of Berto vs. Shane.

                And you accept this? Sorry, but I just can't. No fighter is bigger than the sport. Everyone should have to go through the same trials and tribulations.

                  PBF doesn't deserve it. But this fight should happen, for us fans.

                    Why don't you follow your own advice and quit making excuses~

                      That fair. I can learn to live with that. If Floyd up and retires again though............
