Will Floyd ever reach his full potential or will that zero hold him back?

    All I was saying the whole time is that you can't talk s**t about a guy you dislike for doing something, but then turn a blind eye when the guy you like does something similar.

    I understand HUGH GRANT has a different opinion, but that doesn't mean his opinion on certain matters is bulls**t. For instance, Pac is the GOAT, but no one thinks Sugar Ray Leonard is the GOAT??? He said that, and it's relative to why people shouldn't take him serious.

    Both Manny and Floyd are ATG's, I am a fan of Floyd. I respect Manny as an ATG, one of the top two from this era, and one of the Top 30 fighters ever.

    Saying things like "Get off Floyd's balls", it's just immature bulls**t homie.

    I'm as objective a Floyd or Manny fan as you'll see. By having s**t like "Gayweather" on your sig, you prove your worth to an objective conversation about Floyd is NOTHING.

    Like I said both are great fighters. You have to be consistent with boxers, you can't trash one and not trash the other for the same thing.
    u can if you want because when you get down to it they're 2 different people with different careers. only the opponents are similar so what. he can say he thinks floyds win over oscar was crap and mannies wasnt because of the circumstances. that doesn't mean hes not objective. your just mad he doesn't agree with you. if you were objective you'd respect his opinion and move on.

      No, I'm not mad........This is a boxing forum, that's it.

      So you think it's okay and objective to talk s**T abotu one guy for doing something, but then to turn a blind eye to the guy you like doing the exact same thing???? Okay, your opinion, I can't change your mind. Lets move on.....

        Floyd fought Mosley after Pac's team requested Mosley to fight at a 144 catchweight to give an advantage to Pac and after Mosley agreed they ignored it. Pac never fought the best welterweight while he was a welterweight. Floyd has, twice.
        Dont use my logic that its set in stone, its only a guideline. Every time a fight happens there is a favourite, dont mean you dont fight them. But im just saying Floyd needs to up his opponents and stop coasting. Pac would be the best fighter Floyd ever fought so dont try making Floyd dodge Pac now. Floyd might be bookies favourtie, but you cant excuse for people overating fighters sometimes like they would be doing in Floyds case, if he was Favourite against Pac. DLH was favourite against Pac and they got it wrong. DLH still fought Pac though, so if i hear one more time that Floyd shouldnt fight Pac as he might be favourite im going to assume im dealing with simpletons (no disrespect to simpletons intended) and ignore it. 4corners has said that a few times just like you, and i ignored him countless times.

        Thanks. Ive not hated Floyd once on this thread, on the contrary i have praised him. Ive hinted that Floyd could do better against Sergio than Floyd thinks he might do, but wondering whether Floyds zero will hold him back from reaching for the stars in the tail end of his career.

          Best fighter either has fought probably goes to Shane...even if they fight each other (Although...I think Floyd is debatable as the best fighter they'd have fought..). The Floyd-Pac era is an era where they JUST missed the REALLY good fighters and had to settle for their shells..although one of these names is accused of doing it much later with no shame. I won't name any names, I'll let the insecure fanatics figure that one out.
