Will Floyd's legacy always have a black cloud?

[The Big Dunn]

i love floyd but let be honest here

ducked prime mosely
prime cotto
margarito
pacman
sergio

thats some big names there

his biggest win was over washed up DLH
and even that was a SD

See lets compare your post to the truth!

Floyd called mosley out from 05-07. Mosley refused because floyd wasn't a big enough name. Larry merchant asked Mosley if he would fight floyd and SHane said no I have to get a totth fixed.

Cott, Marg and pac are all employed by top rank, a promotional company floyd left. The owner has refused to do business with floyd. How can floyd duck fighters whose promoter wouldn't do business with him.

Floyd has never fought above 154 lbs, fighting there once because ODH paid him $25 mil. He then returned to 147 and never again fought past the weight. Sergio is the current 160 lb champ who since I have been aware of him, has not fought below 154 lbs.

I mean could you just please post the truth, no matter how much you hate floyd.

No matter what Floyd does people are going to hate. But if a man will not take a test for the good of the sport he is suppose to be the best at then I say f**k fighting him. If it was me being asked to take a test for that amount of money I'd piss right on the spot & in Larry Merchant & Harold Lederman's face right after the fight. Those two are the biggest Floyd haters HBO has on the payroll.

Wow so you would honestly turn down a multi-million dollar position since a company has a drug testing pre-requisite?

I find that hard to believe honestly

Read closer. I have no problem with the company making me take a drug test. I would have a problem with another candidate for the position demanding that I take one.

If my job wanted a drug test Id say yes. If my job gave urine drug tests and my coworker requested they blood test me Id tell him to go fuck himself.

Agree 100%.

For someone who loves Floyd, you know so little.

I understand that. But we're talking about a company asking for the test. I never mentioned anything about your co-worker in my original question. You threw that in there...

But since you're using the co-worker analogy, co-workers (boxers) make requests of other co-workers (boxers) all the time in the sport of boxing. When you see the fight actually happening, that means both fighters agreed to each others terms.

Point being, special requests made by fighters is nothing new.

special requests being turned down is also nothing new.....

it was only blown up way out of proportion on pac's case....

Not a cloud of steroids that's for sure.

Not a cloud of steroids that's for sure.

this is where the law suit comes in........i think....

a court's verdict favoring pac and the fact that floyd was given the opportunity and the venue to present his case and evidences and failed will somehow erase the steroids cloud over pac to a great extent (some people will still doubt him, though)....

on the other hand, floyd losing the law suit undermines his accusations and credibility.
adding this to the belief of some that floyd was hiding behind ost vs pac and floyd ducking other fighters as well make the cloud hovering over floyd's head much bigger and darker than the one over pac's head............
