    Yes, Floyd has the best resume within the last 5 years. It's not arguable and not 1 person has even had a successful argument.

      lol what? I don't think you followed what I was saying, or I was unclear.
      I was saying that most people didn't try to discredit Marquez by claiming he fought a past it Pacquiao in 2012. When I said after, I didn't mean that people thought Pacquiao was still fresh after getting KO'd but rather that after getting KO'd most people still thought he was fine going into the fight. On the other hand, after the Floyd/Pac fight people were saying that Floyd didn't beat the best Pacquiao. That's objectively true, and he was much further along in his career than in his previous loss. Notice that we only brang up being past it in 2015, where it's more applicable, and not in 2012.

      That doesn't make it not a big win for Floyd btw. I was just responding to another poster who made it seem like Pac fans were being inconsistent about whether or not Pac was past it during the past 6 years. After he got iced those fans had every reason to say that the Pac that Marquez fought was past it, but they didn't because that wasn't true. So I don't see the inconsistency.

        Really, who has a better resume in the past 5 years?

          When he retired for good, he will quickly be forgotten.

            He most certainly won't.

              He most certainly will. He has a tiny true fan base. Most people hate the guy and can't wait till he leaves. You think these people will talk him up when his name is brought up at a party, at the bar, during another ppv fight down the road? Absolutely not. Floyds legacy is fighting past prime fighters and cruising to ud wins. Bravo. Hurry up and retire.

                  The typical "there is always an excuse when Floyd wins" fits this case exactly

                    Loooool. His stock will rise long after he's retired, especially if he remains undefeated. The best fighter of an era doesn't just get forgotten.

                      Let me ask, when the topic of ATG defense, lead right hand, pullcounter, check left hook and jab to the body come up, who's name is gonna get a lot of mentions? This is why you're an idiot.
