do you give floyd credit for dominating jmm like no 1's ever done?

[Toney Loc]

Chups....

smh

The first 4 rounds will be cool until Katsidis face starts literally falling off.

hahaha the thing is, that is EXACTLY what would happen lol

It's just an off hand answer to a ridiculous post made by fronter. Why even make a Norris-Joppy comparison when Joppy did not have long title defenses like Norris did. He just wants to prove that there is a fighter who defeated an old legend that did not go to the HOF.... that is all...he did not even think through it.

I presume the point he is making is Joppy beat Duran and was a 2 time Champion so in theory with that name attached to his resume regardless to the fact he was shot then shouldn't he be in the HOF?

We will have to agree to disagree on Terry Norris because although I don't believe he's an ATG I do believe he is rightfully in the HOF and I don't believe for a second it has anything to do with the fact he beat a shot Ray Leonard.

that Katsidis and his face-block technique is truly something to behold

You're crazy.

Katsidis has a much better defense that no defense, Gatti with athleticism, PAC.

The disadvantage for Floyd is that in everyone's mind there isnt a fighter out there he isnt "supposed to do it to".

Are you joking?

yes there is, and there's been plenty throughout his career....

besides, you have to read my prior post, its much more than not getting credit for doing what he's supposed to do, you're jumping in late.

he did what he was supposed to do vs an old guy, with noticeably declining skills, who had never fought in the weight class, who he bother to dry out 3 more pounds against, who had never fought even in the next weight division down not just the division he was fighting for that fight, and was at his most comfortable weight class 3-4 divisions lower.

THATS why he gets no credit for the fight

[Walt Liquor]

pac-kats would result in death

[QADASHBANYAH]

he gets very little credit from me. floyd was his usual style...skillful, defensive and smart. he got all the advantages on his side except for the layoff but it didn't really show any ill-effects on floyd's performance. he's supposed to dominate and he did just like that. one thing i didn't like about floyd in that fight was that he's the bigger guy and yet fought cautiously. being the bigger and more skillful fighter you would expect floyd to somewhat try and bully jmm. but floyd never went out of his shell, it was actually jmm who did that. he was getting beat up from the outside by floyd that rendered his counterpunching style almost useless so he tried to close the gap and pressed the action but still to no avail. if jmm didn't initiate the offense, the fight would have been very boring. good thing jmm is a real warrior. even for a losing effort, jmm deserved more credit in that fight than floyd.

How does he deserve more credit when he lost???? You are not making any sense. This is Floyds style, so what you have really just proved is that floyd outclassed that ass without using his weight to bully and tire marquez out. Floyd was bigger, and faster than marquez, and you and bert sugar were fools to not see that ass whooping coming, just as you are a foll to think the roid using chump really has a chance.

That would be great I'd love to see that.

I'd love to see Katsidis fight almost anyone he always brings the fight to his opponent.

Not going to be too long before he goes blind, mind you.
