    before the fight the CW was abig talking point-floyd addressed it in a sensible way and no one really talked about it anymore.

    Twako we get it youy think constantly bringing up past stuff about floyd will change the future narrative. It wont so long as floyd keeps it positive. And hey, you are entitled to take shots at him. cool.

    If floyd fights and defeat sergio I hope its at 160. If it isn't-lets say 157-he will still get credit form the mainstream.

      Can't wait for the book about this ducking saga that details it all to come out.

      Floyd was the picture of a guy cowering in fear. Arum was obligated to hire a mediator and a PED expert as a last resort. You can picture the meeting room just like in a movie. There was Arum, mediator Weinstein, the PED expert, Hoya and Schaefer, all trying to convince Floyd to fight Pac.

      Mind you, Pac didn't refuse testing. He agreed to unlimited urine tests and three blood tests. How many boxers are subjected to 3 blood tests currently? NONE.

          First time I heard of this ducking saga was from a Detroit local news clip. I thought to myself, "Wow, is that how impressed Floyd was of Pac?" Even then the tone of the news was slanted towards Pac saying that what Pac agreed to was way above and beyond current testing rules. I was expecting that the focus would be on the PED cheating su****ions. It didn't. Days later, I heard Judah's comment about the testing demand, "That's the dumbest **** I've ever heard." Hehe...

            If Mayweather ever fights GGG at 160 , and gets a win - even in Leonard/Hagler way - I will declare him the greatest post-2000 boxer and top 10 ATG !

            I can't believe there is single sane person in this world who really believes this fight is possible

                  if Mayweather doesn't want to accept challenges from strong fighters like Golovkin and Paquiao he should retire already. His resume is full of B- fighters and he continues to fight them over and over again.

                    floyd made a JMM look like he was an amateur while continually out boxed manny and put him to sleep.

                    Boxing math doesnt work buddy
                    I guess that ends that dumb debate
                    lol, what?
