is floyd the greatest jr lightweight ever?

[Pogue69]

floyd is a great fighter, but every 130 lbser in history is a stretch considering that we couldn't even get floyd to fight freitas or casamayor at 130 lbs. that's not to say that floyd wouldn't win, but still floyd never cleaned out 130 lbs. floyd has never cleaned out any division ever.

Freitas and Casamyor? They are on par with Diego Corrales as they all went life and death with each other. Floyd at 130lbs is on a different level.

Anyway, I do not think he is the best 130lber ever as it is a very deep division with Arguello, Chavez...I would not argue if he was in the top 5, though.

no no no NO!

look, im a WAY bigger casamayor fan than i am a mayweather fan. but the truth is casamayor and freitas didnt want to fight floyd. floyd called out all of the top guys at 130, back then before his ego was huge he made more than fair offers to all his potential oponents too. casamayor and freitas still wanted no part of him, not the other way around.

corrales was the only guy willing to fight floyd and even though he lost badly he still deserves credit for that. back then floyd didnt generate huge money, he was just a hard ass fight with no real benefits, nobody wanted to fight him back then but corrales stepped up. major props.

i acctually believe casamyor would stand a great chance at beating floyd, and freitas was a real beast too before corrales traumatized him.

its funny how some ppl just assume that anytime a fight between floyd and someone else didnt happen its automaticly floyds fault. i even seen ppl say he ducked kostya tzyou lol. floyd calls him out and moves up in weight to fight him, kostya loses and retires and somehow floyd was ducking him

Freitas and Casamayor???

Casamayor MAY be great but Freitas?

Oddly enough, it is Freitas who holds a win over Casamayor.

I'm aware that the decision was a bad one, but... Casamayor sure lost an awful lot of the early rounds to someone who apparently doesn't even belong in the same discussion as him.

freitas was a beast at 130.. he has fast and heavy hands..

that chico fight leaves a bad taste on any fans mouth but that's the time when he moved up in weight and already considered a hero in his hometown brazil.. i guess fame got into his head and he wants the easy way out of the fight..

Correct me if i'm wrong but weren't the majority of these guys at 54

Also curious what constitutes a duck these days? If you could lay out a case as to how, why and importantly WHEN Mayweather ducked Berto for example i would be mighty appreciative

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

1. Mayweather

2. Alexis

3. Nelson
