    What If Floyd had (official) lost the Castillo fight...

    ...would he after that be a more risky fighter? Floyd is scared of losing his undefeated record but if he lost the 0 back then could you imagine him not givin a **** anymore and fighting guys like Cotto, Margarito, Pacman (without demanding OST) and to trust his skills and take some rists?

    What do you guys think what would happened to Floyd after being defeated so early in his career back then?

            Would've been better for the sport, he wouldn't be guarding that 0 like a nun guarding her ******ity. Might've fought Cotto, Margarito, Williams, Pacquiao, etc.

            But now as it stands...
            “I had this conversation years ago with Floyd,” former HBO Sports president Seth Abraham recalled. “It wasn’t even about Pacquiao, it was something else. Mayweather believes that at the end of his career, if there is still a zero at the end of his record, he will be one of the five greatest fighters of all time. That, to him, is more important than $30, $40, $50 million to fight Pacquiao. In reality, if he beat Pacquiao, he would be in the conversation about the greatest of all time. Without Pacquiao, he’s not in that conversation. Floyd doesn’t see it that way.”



            Yeah, yeah, I know...



            "That conversation never happened"

              he'd probably be a legitimate all time great instead of a fraud who only fights b level fighters to protect his flimsy undefeated record. oh well.

                good...i expected that kind of feedback...i also think so...in the end you can maybe say it was the worst thing that could happened in Floyds career...

                  Of all the great fighters, very few retired undefeated and no one really cares about a loss or two at the tail end of a great fighter's career. Who gives a s*** that Ali lost to Holmes or that SRL lost to Comancho? A cloud often hangs over the legacy of fighters that do retire undefeated like Marciano, Calzaghe etc. How can you tell if you have reached your potential until you lose?
