I was bonified Floyd hater, with a passion. Now while I still don't actually like him, I have come to respect him. I was 1 that though he'd duck the hell outa Mosley. Instead he beat the **** outa Shane when everyone in boxing knew Shane was the welterweight to beat following his destruction of Margarito.

Then instead of putting up garbage ppv's he left the sport for a while. I can also respect that. If you ain't gonna fight nobody with more than a snowball chance in hell, don't fight them & if you do don't put that crap on ppv. Now he came outa retirement ot fight a prime, young welterweight champ ranked second at the weight. I don't like you Floyd, but I do salute you.

salute a b1tch?....................NEVER...................

Great post man, I hope Floyd keeps this up. You just know he wants to be regarded VERY highly after he officially retires, he's dedicated too much time to this sport to not go out in great fashion.

I can verify your past hatred but I don't sense it now because it doesn't make sense to hate him now. Really good post.

It really doesn't. I don't see how someone can hate Floyd for the exact same thing another great fighter is doing. When it's Floyd who's actually fighting & beating the higher ranked fighters,period. Everyone says numbers don't lie. Floyd fighting Shane & now Ortiz are proof of that, for those who care to admit it.

The problem... and also the reason why both Pacquiao and Mayweather have so many haters... is that nobody wants to see them fight anyone but each other. Just the fight alone, no matter who wins, will solidify them both as two of the best who fought the best of their time.

This could have been the Hagler/Hearns, Leonard/Duran or Ali/Frazier of our generation. Instead, if they eventually do fight, they'll both be long out of their primes. I have a lot of respect for both though.
