Figthers Floyd would probably duck in the 80s.

        Don't get me wrong i think he didn't want P.will and Sergio but who did? Sergio called out Floyd,Pac,Cotto none of them wanted him. No WW wanted P.will because of his size. Floyd fought Mosley when people said he was sacred after the Marquez win. Even Roach came on espn and laughed at Floyd saying he wont fight Mosley but someone like Paulie Malignaggi, yet thats the same Mosley they wanted to drain to 142 or no fight. So Floyd gets no credit for that win? Same Roach who said we got Cotto and Delahoya at the right time when they fought Pac. I feel its a double standard with Floyd. Even with the catch weight with Canelo people knew it was going to be at 152, but did that stop people from picking Canelo to win?

          floyd beating a weight drained canelo means absolutely nothing. blame the nationalistic support for canelo. look at how alvarez is struggling with his weight.

            he refused to fight a clear legitimate threat.

                That's fine then, hope you apply the same criticisms to all the fighters that bring there opponents down a weight division or fight at catch weights.

                      i gotta ask you, since you're not a full on flaming flom0; how come 'boxing fans' who put up a major stink when PAC fans 'overrate' PAC dont say a peep when there are ******s here claiming that Floyd is indeed TBE?
                      And of course not 1 Floyd fan can answer Maks question
