    To answer the TS I think people mention him getting rocked as an argument to him not having the most solid chin, because none of those guys are really concusive punchers, although judah is a good puncher. I agree though he should get more credit, I don't think he is as boring as people make out, just wish he would fight more like the corley fight because he looks awesome at times in that fight, and thats what itches at people with him. I do have to say though I don't think he has a brilliant chin but does a hell of a job protecting it

      haters only focus on the negatives of a guy they dont like

      true boxing fans appreciate the positives of a fighter

        He was rocked by Corley......Judah never really rocked him at all...he buzzed him a couple of times.....but thats about it.....Floyd took over after rd 3...

        Corley actually nailed him with some good punches.....but point is taken, if you hurt floyd you better finish him off........

            what do you call getting blasted then staggering into the ropes and covering up for 15 seconds? also judah clearly won round 4 but floyd had taken over already?

              Ummmm yeah, but at the same time no, because you are over dramatizing what happened.

              he was not seriously hurt in any of those fight and has therefore not proven he can comeback from adversity and has the heart of a champion as of this date.

                How are you going to compare Floyd from years ago to the current Floyd? Floyd is way better, smarter, his D is better, etc. His skills have improved since his fights with Judah and Castillo.

                    He was never really seriously hurt in any fight as to where he was in any danger of being stopped, that is adversity, not getting knocked off balance by Zab for instance.

                    He could have the heart of a champion and he could have a granite chin but he is so damn good at what he does defensively that even though he is a 40 fight vet we still don't know about his intangibles.
