Do you Find Floyd Boring(Poll)

[1 on 1]

Boxing is a combat sport.

Football can be brutal at times, but it is in no way comparable to boxing's brutality, neither is Basketball. In Football players are encouraged to always be going 100% as well.

I think I may have given Floyd an underhanded compliment there, because he still dominates without going 100% apparently.

With that said I can understand why some people find Floyd boring or believe he is underachieving with his abilities, but that's just Floyd as a Boxer. If he has no problem picking you apart he won't change anything.

I disagree. I've played both sports, and trust me, the only time I felt sore the next day after a boxing workout is if I was just getting back into shape, in boxing matches I've never felt sore just fatigued, in football you're sore from neck to toe each time the next day.

Also, in football, you're not just getting hit with two fists, on any given play you have guys of different sizes smashing into you from different directions. Many say that in boxing you get your brains smashed in. Well, I've been long su****ious of this, and now we're finding out that football has kind of kept the problem under the rug as far as brain related injuries are concerned.

Definitely the abuse the body goes through in football is far more than what a boxer endures. How often do you see boxers suffer a leg break in a fight, in football you end up getting the same type of injuries as in boxing and then some !!

I also disagree having done both.

Pads make all the difference in the world in Football. If Football players didn't have padding I'd agree. I got live punched before and that was worse than any pain I've felt in Football(Maybe its different for you). Detatched eye sockets, all that jazz that happens in Boxing among other thing's, except most old retired NFL players are the one's that are seriously hurting from all those years of playing Football, and on the other hand we have 28 year olds in Boxing with obvious signs of brain damage.

Either way as to the Greatness measure I strongly disagree there. Mainly because if Kobe purposely held back to only score 15 PPG, or Peyton held back and only threw 2 passing TD's a game no one would ever remember them for what they did. Mayweather can hold back from unloading his arsenal against his opponents and still be remembered for cruising to an easy decision win. I don't really believe the "How You Did it" in boxing matters as much as "If You Won or not". There are boxer's that came before Floyd, and even with him holding back his style is not even close to being ugly or unentertaining for "SOME".

I like floyd but i have to say the truth that he is just too boring to watch.

[jrosales13]

I thought his fights with Baldo were the only two fight of him were I really found boring. Like I was falling asleep type of boring...

I didn't like the Oscar fight either, I thought that was kind of boring.

I thought the Judah fight was getting boring until the semi riot broke out...

After that I have enjoyed the rest of his fights. I just wish he would of fought couple other fighters. But, whatever that is neither here nor there.

[The_Demon]

na i appreciate his skills

[Junito-Rulez]

No i don't think so. Floyd is a pretty entertaining fighter, especially at 130-135.

How can you say you enjoyed his fights after De La Joto but found the Baldo, Judah fights boring.

The Baldo fight was more or less the same as the Juanita fight. Me personally, I have not found a single fight of Phony Boy's entertaining, it was either you expected him to dish out that type of beatdown or he was merely satisfied with cruising to victory.

I can see how his fight with Flattened was seen as entertaining, I think it more had to do with the illusion that the fight was competitive due to the fact that Flattened charges in like a bull and kept pinning Phony Boy on the ropes, when in fact, there wasn't much work being done by either guy.

I prefer technical boxers any bum off the street can brawl.

[Don Johnson]

yeah i find him very boring, maybe it's a personal thing cuz I was always a fan of cory spinks, vernon forrest, Winky Wright, and some other pure boxers but, never really like floyd much.

I enjoy his fights. The vibe is different for Floyd fights than the others.
