    In all honesty bro, I feel as a fan of Floyd, you let him down big time. Reason being is that Manny got awarded FOTD towards the end last year (Around dec I think) and due to the awards being held in the summer, they just now had the ceremony for it.

    My thing is this; you basically had 5 months to state your case and protest, but failed to do so. So again, you and others who believed Floyd should have gotten FOTD failed Money May big time. If you used half the energy it took to type all of that, and directed it into making a case for Floyd, I guarantee he would have won it.
    i can see your point on this, but you have to understand this, it's all subjective-----to me, floyd doesn't have to have that title on paper, you know why? coz when it's all said and done, after he dusts off manny, that's going to show all the people who don't believe, that floyd is the better fighter and the greater fighter overall in history-----floyd will be ranked higher in the all time great lists, but people have so much hate for him, their lists go blind after a while---coz it doesn't become about accomplishments anymore you know?

    you're right though, i should have spoken up-----but, i also was offline for a long time while this was going on too-----my bad on that------

      you know you have a great resume when you take the three best featherweight of this era in MAB, Erik Morales and JMM..

      those three featherweight kingpins reign the 122-130 lbs for almost a decade..

            NoI actually don't have anymore jokes. So I am just going to pop in a tape and watch the pure brilliance of pure boxing skills of James Kirkland. Can't wait till he gets back in the ring. So the whole World can see Kirkland pure boxing skills.

              lol, i get the feeling u 2 really dnt like each other ehh??


              nyways on topic. i think both of their resumes are quite comparable. pac gets a lot of credit because of him always fightin bigger guys. his overall resume is better than floyds but not by much as many seem to believe. like many posters have said, u can pick apart any fighter's resume.

                And, anybody who says Marco Antonio Barrera was not in his prime when Pac beat him in 2003. Then they can not be taken serious. Obviously they're haters or just don't know WTF They're. Pure and simple is one or the other.

                Barrera was not in his prime in 2003? WTF? Why cuz Pac beat him? Forget about the run he had going into the fight. And, forget the fact that not only after he lost to Pac he moved up 1 division and unified titles in that division. And, didn't lose for the next 4 years until he fought JMM. Which he was competitive in. Yet he wasn't in his prime in 2003?

                  barerra was prime, morales wasnt, jmm was tho. but i thought he won the 2nd fight, it was a close fight tho. good wins both of those.

                    maybe they don't follow weightclass below welterweight..

                    MAB, Erik Morales and lately JMM were the ones keeping it afloat.. they were the cashcows of the lower weight limit (JMM was a late bloomer)

                    and just because PAC take them all, they were not noteworthy opponents and not great on your resume? *****s logic at its best..

                      I would never say Morales was prime against Pac. And, Barrera was passed his prime or shot or whatever in the rematch against Pac. But, in 2003 in the first Barrera was in his prime. For some people to try to insinuate he wasn't is ridiculous and should not be taking serious...

                      Now about JMM... Personally I have watch JMM for a long time. Since the forum days watching him in person. IMO I would JMM was in his prime in the first Pac fight. However, in the rematch JMM was passed his prime. He had lost a step. His reflexes and overall defense was not what they once were. And, that is why he became a more offensive minded and got hit more cuz he had lost a step. So the rematch I would say JMM was in his prime. But, in the first fight he was.
