    Sounds like your talking about the guy in your AVATAR.

      there are so many people on this site who are either young or just got into boxing because Floyd's SFW career is so underrated on this site. All of those guys he beat were very good fighters at the time.

      Everyone in boxing at the time gave him mad credit but nowdays everyone is like "who are these guys"? Its sad but if you were old enough at the time or a boxing fan then you could appreciate what he did when he was younger.

      Floyd was also small enough to stay at 135 & 140 alot longer then he did to where he couldve added some legendary fighters to his resume because there is no way they wouldve beat him but he wanted that big money Oscar fight so he kept moving up quickly

          Exactly, for the short time he reigned the SFW division he knocked off guys who at the time where in many peoples eyes just as talented as him..

            I didn't excuse Manny, but Manny has fought and beat more A fighters than Floyd in my humble opinion.

                  theres a reason manny dont fight marquez at a weight that would give him 100% credit.. he CANT MAKE lightweight anymore and possibly not even 140...

                  anyone that think the quality of the weight at fight night is the same with marquez and pac is naive and a nuthugger

                      corrales was not a heavy favorite. stop trying to revise history to suit your needs. did paul revere also warn the british that the british were coming?
