    2 things

    is it me or has most of the floyd haters only watched about a handfull of floyd fights? i keep hearing potshot and ive seen about 30 floyd fights and i can only name a handfull where he pot shots either due to injury or it was a good tactic to beat that opponent. now im sure most of you guys dont box never boxed and only speak from a fan point of view. but when you box and your fighting and you find a tactic that works on a particular opponent and its working. you will know that thats the smart thing to do. if you dont have to risk getting hit and hurt to win why do it. as fans you guys become selffish without knowing what really goes on or what it takes to win. alot of guys you like go thru hell in fights because they have no choice but to. floyd has the ability to fight all types of ways and has options on how he will win.

    and this potshotting thing n 40 fights howmany has he potshot to win? and why do you feel thats his only style only way to win? how many fights have you guys watched. yall ***** and cry and make useless nonsense posts.
    one guy says he potshots and the rest follows his lead. i seen floyd potshot a slow chasing buldimeir after half the fight the first half i seen floyd throw combinations and used movement until he said he hurt his hand then he beat carlos with one hand. i seen an injured floyd beat castillo in a close tough fight. he came into the rematch and made it easier why make the same mistakes again when they was tough in the first fight? why do you believe he will try this with mosley? since when have you seen floyd do something it dont work and he keeps doing it? are you guys thta dense or have such a short term memory where you can only remember floyd in 1 fight or have yall only seen floyd fight once or just repeating what other people are saying. either way yall no sense at all.

    floyd can beat mosley in the pocket everything mosley throws is wide and hard and can be caught on the arms and gloves n elbows. and if floyd potshots and it works why nto do it till the end thats the samrt thing to do
    i seen floyd make adjustments 4 times against hatton when hatton didnt even notice. mosley makes no adjustments.


    my 2nd thing is why do people make so many comments against someone they suppose to hate? sound like bitches in a hair salon talking about a another female they cant stand. why she on your mind why do you have so many opinions about her him whatever. i dont like the heavyweights i dont make post talking about why they do this and that. if you dotn like floyd why do yall care so passionatly?

      ive been in fights where i hti a guy with my hardest shot and he goes nowhere and in my mind i automaticly think ok im nto brawling or giving this guy a chance he can take a punch ill outbox him. and just jab and move 123 get out and win. i can understand when guys take an easy route to win a fight might not be exciting to most of you casual fans. but you win the fight and you go on to bigger things. valero showed he can box. he went hard against lesser opponents because he was able to. why box them when he can just **** and knock them out? gatti showed he can box but he ****ed up trying to be fan fav and ****** out. made him popular but he lost fights he should have won. its entertainment but you still has to do whats best for urself. this is a hard sport and you can get hurt

        well every fighter has biased fans. im not a biased fan of floyd but i feel he is picked apart and its not right. alot of guys pick him apart are jsut selffish and has no knowledge of the sport. anything they know is what they read on headlines or from other guys who share the same thoughts

          Fans who buy tickets to his fights and watch his PPVs allow him to live the comfortable lifestyle he does and have every right to complain about the product if they don't find it entertaining.

          If he doesn't care what fans really think then fine but if he does then he should change some fans opinions and elect to fight more rather than box the whole way.

          Its really Floyd's concern or lack there of but ppl have every right to be critical for without fans the sport fails.

                He is a great technical boxer but could do a little more than he does. It seems like he just doesn't go the extra mile like some other fighters do to entertain fans.

                I watch because I love the sport and watch all televised fights regardless of what I expect to happen.....I have note books full of score cards.

                  why should he do a little more if he still win? thats what i dont understand your asking for more but hes winning? i can understand if he lost and he could have done more but hes not hes willing easy. its called being smart and using your options.

                    He claims to not only be the best boxer in the world today but the greatest of all time.

                    We as fans hold the best fighters in the world to the highest standards and we should if they claim to be such.

                    Just doing enough to win doesn't cut it when it comes to great fighters.
