    Only Cotto and Floyd fans diss him
    everybody else understands Tony was badass in the ring
    the guy did his part to make every fight exciting
    one of the toughest guys in boxing during his run
    no shame in Pac ending his career, Tony fought his ass off that night

      He was a fun fighter and had some great fights, but lets not go overboard. He was a decent champ of today's multi-champ era in a division in which he never would have been a champ in years gone by.

      He has some good wins, Cotto, a very green Martinez, Clottey, Cintron, Lewis, among others, it that is, in no way whatsoever, make him underrated. He has always been, and probably always will be now that Pac beat him, overrated.

      Unlike most NSB nuts, I don't think he ever cheated before the Mosley fight and even the Mosley fight and wraps was blown out of all proportion. There is very little evidence showing any conscious effort at harm and what was found was so minimal that it could not have ever made the slightest impact on any fight.

      So, while I think he's hugely overrated, he was a decent champ with some good wins,, but was limited and very beatable. He'll be known most for his two high profile losses and the utterly absurd and ridiculous media scam that had him dubbed 'the most feared' man in boxing.

          How? By blocking punches with his face?

              The Tijuana Big Banana always left me drooling and screaming for more.

              Both Inside and Outside of the ring.

                I love how people say Mayweather ducked him. Like that slow plodder would have landed a glove on Floyd. You don't need to be a Floyd fan to know that.

                    Yeah just like he would NEVER fight Pacquio, Cotto, Mosley, Canelo according to experts on here.
