      well you are getting robbed everytime you buy a floyd ppv. he's not fighting anyone whos a threat. I don't know why you support him fighting overmatched oponents.

      "self preservation" thats pretty much based on his style anyways. He had to fight threats to get to the top, just now that hes there he's not letting anyone good threaten him.

        Guess it's just frustrating with Mayweather...

        I would never call the guy a coward.. He has fought some dangerous guys like Corrales, Castillo, Hatton (I considered him a decent test when Floyd fought him), and De La Hoya seemed to have something left when they met too... And I can't really knock his fights with Mosley and Ortiz either

        But there's just a feeling that he could have done so much more. So many big fights that could have been made. Would have really loved to see him against Cotto, Margarito, Williams, etc...

            His Credibility and Integrity is already in question;
            Check the Police and Court Record;
            Check his past comments, were they CONSISTENT?
            His Millions of Dollars can't even extend his borrowed life.
            (see what happened to Apples' CEO, he died and his money can't save him)

              Larry is going in on yall....its easy to talk that **** on the sideline. It's not that he avoids "heavy shelters"...the style in which he fights that makes it hard for guys to hit him is self preservation. While other guys ride off into the sunset broke and with health issues, Floyd wants to ride off rich and able to hoop, party and run around with his kids with no problems...if that's bad then I say F*#K IT...LET IT BE BAD!! Just because a guy chooses a dangerous profession doesn't mean he has to accept the horrible physical fate that many others have lol for the sake of whatever glory u guys want to give him. All people do is **** on fighters anyway so why not do it the way u wanna do it and laugh all the way to the bank??

                      Mosley, Ortiz, the consensus during those times were that he was taking two credible legit opponents, which is good reason to support those fights. I understand the whole overmatch thing but Floyd isn't to blame for there being very few challenges out there.
