    Pac definitely impressed and made a believer out of me in regards
    to being able to handle moving up because I didn't think he could
    do to his strictly offensive style but he did it right. I noticed that
    many on here keep forgetting that Floyd started his career at 130
    and fought some good fighters until he got established and began
    making big money but even then the majority of his fights were
    championship fights. Praise Pac and down Floyd all you want but
    Floyd was on another level several years ago and had the sport in
    aw by his Boxing skill.
    I'm not downing Floyd, their is no question that Floyd is a gifted boxer, his technical boxing skills is A grade, that's undeniable. My main question is, as most of the boxing fans,purists & hardcores, why Floyd isn't fighting the best?

    Ali lost coz he fought the best, SRL lost coz he fought the best, Duran lost coz he fought the best, SRR lost coz he fought the best, RJJ lost coz he fought the best, Oscar lost coz he fought the best, Hearns lost coz he fought the best, Hagler lost coz he fought the best, Trinidad lost coz he fought the best, Shane lost coz he fought the best, Bhop lost coz he fought the best, Tyson lost coz he fought the best and so on and so forth...

      I agree with you that Floyd should fight the best and I think his effort
      to make a deal to fight Manny Pacquiao is a fine example of him doing
      just that because as of right now Pac is the P4P best correct? I think
      more a less WE just want him to fight more than he does against the guys
      WE want him to fight that WE think are the best and I don't see anything
      wrong with feeling like that. Like I said before, Manny then Mosley, I
      believe Floyd will fight them both next year. To say that he didn't fight
      the best throughout his career when most of his fights were title bouts
      is an understatment in my opinion.

      • Mad props to Manny for what he's done but more respect to his PR team and management because he has been masterfully moved and promoted. When has Manny fought a fresh fighter since Marquez? They picked Cotto because they knew they could outsmart him and they knew that he was coming off some vicious brawls. I'm talking Judah, Shane, Margarito and Clottey all vicious brawls, how much can a body take. That's why they wanted him immediately and Cotto's bravado wouldn't allow him to say no which was his down fall. Say what you want about Floyd but he is probably the smartest fighter to ever lace'em up. Boxing is about what Floyd does not a tough man contest. I hear a lot of predictions but I'm going with Floyd by easy decision or late round stoppage and I lean more towards the stoppage because Floyd knows whats at stake too and will be very prepared like he always is. One key to Manny is listening to big mouth Freddie Roach. Freddie said before each of Manny's last three fights that the fighters weren't the same and had deteriorated now he's saying Manny won't be ready to fight Floyd in March because he wont be prepared for his style. Roach knows that what Floyd has he was born with and 2-3 more months is not gonna be enough to prepare Manny for Floyd he's just hoping and wishing to catch Floyd. Fools can sleep on that 0 all they want but that 0 aint there for nothing.

          I think you overstated the NOT FIGHTING THE BEST. Floyd fought some of the best when he was on the lower weights, but when he moved to WW he fought none of the TOP WWs. Don't tell me Baldomir is TOP WW, that's crazy man.

              I like your post my peoples! Big up! Freddie Roach says alot of things
              that are true out of his mouth but no one seems to listen. Freddie predicted
              every fight of Manny's, dissed Floyd and then when it's time to man up,
              Roach says he needs more time to prepare Manny for Floyd's style. Big up
              to Manny for improving but I am going with Floyd to win.

                  I have a very good reading comprehension dude. I wouldn't discuss this with you If I'm not into it.

                  Or if you want we can discuss outside Boxing, let say History? At least for a change. What do you think?

                      What is the excuse there dude? Did you really read the post?

                      FYI, Lehdwaba was black, who lost to Pac in 2001 for the IBF Super Bantamweight. Who was the black fighter on the TOP when Pac fighting at FW, SFW & LW? NONE! Shut-up! you don't know nothing about boxing!
