    I am not a big pbf fan. but he has fought fighters that were highly ranked when he fought them. he has never really avoided anyone, but people still dont give him credit for what he has accomplished. i would like to see him and chico go at it again. i think coralles has his head on straight this time and he would probably knock pbf out!

      i agree that the fight this weekend was a joke.... 140 is the deepest division in boxing and floyd took the easy way by fighting this bum.... allen and oscar were both more of a threat to nard than this bum was to floyd... even merchant had to criticize floyd for taking a gimme... i didnt know floyd could of fought abduhlev instead, that would have been interesting... still i have to rate floyd #2 P4P....

        don't blame PBF blame Gatti for ducking him to fight Leija. I bet Gatti gives up his belt rather than even face Floyd.

          have to say floyd has all the skills in the world to be a great fighter...however w/his choice of opposition since moving to 140 is a little suspect. maybe one gimme fight to acclimate to the weight but he's considered a p4p fighter. i don't see any reason for him to waste anybodys time fighting fighters who are better suited for young contenders. pbf is already established he should fight the best and nothing less.

            btw gatti is nowhere near the caliber fighter of pbf. this is a fight i'm not looking forward to but will still watch if it happens.

              That would be a wise career move.

                  I actually give PBF credit for doing exactly what was expected of him - no more, no less. That's all he deserves from this last fight.

                    Gatti couldn't carry Floyd's Jockstrap.

It's hard to stop someone who keeps his D tight and doesnt let his hands go. He also did alot of sparring against Cotto so the guy can take a good punch, plus he was in the best shape of his life which makes you last longer. Zoo had a similar fight with Tackie which he never hurt and it went the distance. Did you say the samething about Zoo? Every fight is different and he will sitdown and trade agaisnt Gatti and stop him
                      It's all very well to say that Bruseles sparred with Cotto, therefore he can take a punch. If Cotto had hit him with intent, Henry would have missed fight night!

                      PBF will meet his match when he fights Cotto. Cotto will bust his ribs and then KO him! PBF only starts to fight in close from the 5th round or so.......That's when he will wilt under the power of Cotto's shots. Those fancy side on weaves from Floyd, when on the ropes and avoiding punches, will expose his liver & ribcage to a fighter who knows how to take advantage of that. That will be his greatest error!

                      Remember, PBF has gone UP a few divisions....He faces Cotto, who at 140 is naturally strong. Cotto will probably move up soon as well.

                      Bruseles is not in the same class as Cotto. Cotto would have taken Bruseles out in 2 or 3 rounds! Look at how long it took PBF!
