    They were top 10 alright but definitely not the best at the time they were cherry picked. Top 10 these days also depend on who you ask.

      Name me one person who consistently fights the best after best? Only thing fighters can do is fight the best available options. Meaning someone from Top 10. And right now, Floyd's the only one doing that.

      And Mosley had his best career win when Floyd fought him. And before you say Mosley had a long layoff, so did Floyd.

      Didn't have the right gameplan, is a ****** excuse.

      "Mosley was too old"

      He fight's someone young.

      "Ortiz was too inexperienced"

      He fights someone younger than him, but is still experienced.

      "Uh..uhh Cotto's too...old"

      He fights someone who is young but has had 43 fights so he has some experience.

      "Uh uhhh, well the Canelo fight. We haven't used the weight draining excuse yet right? Yeah! The catchweight!" And he didn't fight the right fight. Canelo shouldn't have boxed with the boxer!"

      So he fights a mauler/brawler

      "Maidana won that!"

      So he fights him again

      "Maidana...gloves...and he didn't have a 6 pack that night"

      Like damn! This type of nonsense is normal here in boxingscene. People like me are the weird ones. ****s crazy.

          I'm really no Floyd fan, but you can break down every fighter's resumé like this. Floyd may have avoided some superb fighters and fought others either side of their primes, but many other fighters have similar caveats to their wins.

            If Floyds resume sucks, basically you're saying everyone in modern boxing sucks.

              He does seem to fight the same style over and over again. When was the last time he fought a boxer with quick hands? I think people have the wrong idea about what would give him trouble. A guy who comes straight at him? That's the perfect style for him. A guy who boxes him and uses angles and does not follow him around the ring is a different story.

                    Yeah, i guess Floyd is the only one who comes in with the right "gameplan" or is the only person that can adjust during the fight.

                      Algeiri had the wrong game plan against Pac. He should have come out of his cage earlier.
