nobody says sugar ray ducked hagler. why? because they eventually fought. nobody brings up the fact that sugar ray waited years too fight hagler even though that's exactly what he did. so the fact that Floyd beat cotto and hatton later than you would have liked, still don't change the fact that Floyd beat them.
pacquiao is the only fighter Floyd ducked and is ducking.

Originally posted by Bigg Rigg View PostFloyd's fights are the least exciting out of all the fight parties we have. Yeah, he's really good but it gets boring after a few rds. And it's not like he's gonna ko somebody either so what u see after the first few rds is what you're gonna get for the rest of the fight.
At least with Floyd you get to see some sublime skills and defensive wizardry on the way to a decision win.

And how is it ignorant to claim that Floyd underperformed against Maidana? Heck, even Floyd himself claims he "had no gameplan" or "was giving the fans what they wanted". Whether that's true or not is up for another discussion but the fact remains; that wasn't the best of Floyd. Anybody who truly keeps up with Floyd knows that.
Originally posted by LoadedWraps View PostOr Maidana just is a stylistic nightmare for him and is severely underrated on many levels. Floyd hasn't lost a step, and when this rivalry with Chino is over he will go back to sweeping opponents on the cards. Mark my words.
Because of Floyd's aging legs, a guy like Maidana can easily swarm in on him and make the fight tough but that doesn't make him much of a threat.
Originally posted by MisanthropicNY View PostKeith Thurman should at least take a stab at landing Canelo if he wants to become a big-name fighter...
Canelo v. Kirkland right now is not as exciting as a Thurman fight would be because Thurman is actively KOing guys and hasn't lost...Last edited by Mr. Punch-Out!!; 08-25-2014, 11:43 AM.
