        He only lost 4 rounds In that fight and only got knocked down once

            They had the "wrong fight plan"? So Floyd just happens to always have the right fight plan? No but he's able to adjust on the fly, which is a attribute of an elite boxer.

              You forgot to mention:

              Castillo won the 1st fight.

              Judah got cheated by the ref.

              Hatton wasnt at his best weight.

              Hernandez was in his retirement fight.

              Chavez gave him all he could handle and he was much smaller than him.

              Manfredy stoppage was way too early and he was overhyped anyway.

              ...

              Basically, Floyd should have an asterisk next to every single one of his Ws.

                I know floyds a bitch and all but I can't knock his consistency. Since coming back he's fought world class fighter after world class fighter. That's quite rare for fighters to do top fighters usually tend to take a game but softer touch opponent every now and then.

                Cotto vs delvin Rodriguez
                PAC vs rios
                Ward vs Rodriguez
                Danny Garcia vs salka.
                Etc

                The only reason I give floyd props is because even though most of the time he fights a guy we don't wanna see he still fights top opposition consecutively. His consistency is the best in the sport imo.

                  I think you can walk into the ring, shoot Mayweather in the head twice with a 45, and he would still win by UD. "But the way he's spilling his brains all over the ring! That's Mayweather's craft. Look how he stays still there on the canvas. The crowd isnt bothering him one bit, what a pro! That's why he's the P4P king".
