    Floyd is an absolute legend.

    People will realise his greatness when he is gone...

        without Mayweather and Pacman...UFC would be DESTROYING boxing right now especially when it comes to PPV Buys, those are the only two fighters that can go head to head with a UFC PPV and actually get more buys, no other boxers can do that and I don't see any other fighters do that anytime soon

        Boxing will be better when the Promoters start actually giving the fans the best fight they can instead of protecting fighters they feel that can make the most money off of Long Term

        More Tournaments can help boxing also and can help create boxing stars on a WORLD WIDE Level

          Nobody is denying how great he is. Its his reluctance to get in the ring with Pac that people are bashing him for.

He never fought tony whilst he was in his prime, Cotto, mosley, p williams and now manny! I know Manny is very suspect but the others he had no excuse to not fight when they were knocking on his door. Instead he fought, oscar who was shot, ricky hatton, and not to mention baldomir (club fighter)

            If and when floyd retires which he will soon, I believe boxing will be better! You have fighters like bradley and the 140 who all want to fight the to prove they are champs. Also We will get a huge star from who ever wins the super six. Do any of you agree??

            Who?............

              People are bashing him for not getting into the ring with the top rank boxers (cotto, marg, manny) becasue they don't know any better.

                So let me guess....He wont fight them because he doesnt like Bob Arum? Booo ***ing hoooo. Who in their right state of mind will turn down 10's of millions of dollars just because they dont like someone. That's a lame ass excuse.

                  Deveel916 when you simplify it sounds bad. I've asked you the following at least 5 times in other threads Yet you wont answer. Which scenario would you choose if you were in floyds place and you were 38-0:

                  Fight Cotto and Marg for $16 mil guarantee
                  Fight Baldo and ODH for $33 mill guarantee

                      Who Manny Pacquiao whos been knocked out twice before?

                      Floyd would destroy him like he does all his other opponents. Floyds got the jab and counterpunching skills that Pacquiao cant cope with.

                      41 have tried, 41 have failed.
