      Naive....Mosely officially ducked Floyd.Not once,but twice.There is also video up of Cotto saying he wasn't ready for Floyd.Funny how 2 out of the 3 fighters you mention are Top Rank fighters.....coincidence?

      All 3 of those guys you mentioned can have something negative mentioned about them,yet you spend every minute on here trying to slag off a fighter who asks yours to take a drug test.Maybe you need to ask yourself why Manny resisted it for so long...

        He ALWAYS cherrypicked, get it into your heads. His BRAINSTRUST did it for him. They just slipped up a little with Emanuel Augustus and Castillo.Like Oscar's Brainstrust did with Trinidad and Mosley.

          Yu can't be classed as "resisting" something which is not mandated on the Commission Rules and has never been done in boxing before. You could call it "ignoring"...like in the way of "don't bother me kid".... . Why should he have to be the only pro boxer in the world to kowtow to someone like Mayweather who always tries to get an advantage over his opponent, and WON'T fight him unless he has one.

          This was going to be his advantage knowing that Manny P. had blamed his loss to Morales on that LATE blood taking, as well as Philippino psychology.

              You can't be that delusional can you? You do realize he fought Castillo in a rematch right?

              And he moved up in weight not retreat back down right? And never asked for a catch weight right?

                Floyd has developed a bad habit of pushing off with his forearm and using his elbow to gain a little "comfort" room.

                It'll cost him if a ref calls him on it as Drakulich did.

                  You are entirely correct except it's not pacquiao suing it's arum suing using pacmans name lol

                    To an extent, this is true. However, as he grew into a full adult and began to add the weight, he allowed himself to gain strength. The lead right was sort of a by-product of moving up in weight as well. It's a punch that you don't expect an orthodox fighter to throw as regularly as he throws it. Because of this, he's able to surprise opponents. Also, as he moved up, he used it more due to the speed he still possessed going up against bigger AND slower opponents.

                    It worked. Over time, you tend to perfect things that garner success.
