It's very transparent.

What's pathetic is you cats narrow minded biased viewpoint.
Half of those guys were come forward plodders, the other half when they really posed a threat is not when Floyd danced with them.
No stylistic nightmares to speak of.
At least guys like Jones, Hopkins, and Shane fought guys who posed a style nightmare in Tarver, Dawson, and Forrest respectively, in their primes. I can roll with that.
The guy has a point. There were a couple of guys that Floyd could have fought in a final fight that would have silenced some of the critics.

The fight didn't happen earlier for various reasons with enough blame for both sides. However, I have a feeling that if the fight achieved the desired outcome some hoped for, the talk of past prime and other nonsense wouldn't be accepted from the other side.
It's very transparent.

To say that none of the fighters he face posed a threat shows your lack of boxing knowledge. The style that caused floyd the most problems is the style he faced the most! All of those fighters since hatton had or held titles at the time they faced floyd. You still haven't answered the question....who has faced better oppostion? You say they were names or not good at the time but all of them where either top contenders, world champions, or on the p4p list when he fought them.
Gtfoh if you thought Marquez, Maidana, Guerrero, and Ortiz posed such a great threat to Floyd. Floyd outclasses these guys in his sleep. You trying to make it seem like because these guys had belts, they were on the level of a Duran or somebody like Chavez Sr and the they are just not.
Cotto, Oldsley, and Pac were shopworn. Nuff said.
I acknowledged Alvarez as a good win, and if Alvarez proves he has the goods, it ups him.
I already said guys like Hopkins, Jones and Mosley fought higher quality opposition just based on them getting in there with guys who posed the biggest style threat and named the guys that were bad style matchups to boot. Floyd absolutely not. Just the fact that he chose Berto over Khan and absolutely ignored a young hungry lion in Thurman, who was also his mandatory for years and been calling him out, is a pretty good chess player, and has some real work with his hand and foot game, is all the proof ya need. Only time Floyd mentioned Thurman, is when he was trying to put him off on a Spence who hadn't fought nobody. What more you guys need. LolLast edited by djtmal; 04-24-2017, 10:21 PM.
