    I agree 100% with Hagler. He will be remembered better as a fighter that fought all the top fighters of his era than the biggest draw of the era

      I'm fans off both, but truth is truth..................

      Just as I nearly blew a gasket crucifying Floyd for even having Khan on his radar, I will speak the truth in regards to Manny constant ducking of this match, I dont blindly ****ride or kiss ass in defense of my favorite fighter, just cause......Thats what separate me from the rest of yall here, you know why because I was a fan of Boxing far before I was the fan of any fighter.....

        Hagler just see's ghost of SRL in Mayweather, Hagler still aint learn to get over it........

        Why doesn't Hagler come out and criticized the fellow southpaw and former 154 champ going on a JWW and below tour for 3 whole years now..............................Where's the consistency????????

          I don't understand your point.

          Floyd's legacy would be sealed if he fights Pac is all what I'm saying.

              The bold is eyewateringly embarrassing. I cant think what kind of mental process went on before you actually typed that.

                10-15 years from now you will remember more Pac and Floyd than any other foe they faced.

                Most ATG face the best opposition available in their era and Pac is clearly one of them that Floyd has to face.

                  Hurt?? It's going to badly damage his legacy. I cringe to think about how he'll be regarded in the future. I'm seriously disappointed in him for taking the route that he has. He sent the wrong message virtually every step of the way with his choices in opponents. But he's still my fighter from my era. Not looking forward to hearing him criticized ten and twenty years down the road knowing he had a chance to prove his critics wrong. Pathetic situation really.

                    As a great fight for Floyds its gone now, when JMM and Bradley have him on his resume very recently. A good win for Floyd of course, and people can stop accusing Floyd of ducking Pac for the remainder of Floyds career.

                    But Floyd will always be seen as a ducker of sorts, cherry picking when ripe. He didnt fight Pac when he should have
                    Thats a fact and lulzy how people try to deny it. At this point it's impossible to change that unless Floyd has a time machine. He'll never have the glorious respect that the great fighters in history share. One thing is guaranteed though, Another great fighter will come along and restore boxing to its former glory and when he does Mayweather and his career will unfortunately look even more pathetic
