      well said man!!...I used to hate that dude back in the days...not really hate but I just wasn't feeling him as a person...his personality rubbed me the wrong way...but as I matured as fan of the SPORT....I began to appreciate him and his dedication to his craft...Floyd is a master in the ring...if you can't respect that then your whole perspective is wack(in my Hov voice)

            They should have inducted Pacquiao first to make Floyd squirm. Probably would have boycotted his induction & shown how much of a little man he is mentally.

            Great fighter
            One of the best defensive fighters of all time
            crappy person

            but still doesn't really hold an aurora of greatness. Mike on two occasions has explained why that is pretty damn well...

              Now I get to spend the next decades of my life telling young kids how their favorite boxer wouldn't of been able to beat Mayweather.

                Trying to figure out why Tyson's opinion on the matter is important when he himself was not great. His only notable wins are Michael Spinks and The Ghost Of Larry Holmes :/

                Also, Pacquiao is far from eligible from hall induction.

                  This is honestly the best speech Floyd has ever given. I will miss him dearly.
