We know it was a sham, but what better time for Floyd to get in there and beat the guy who "beat" Pac? It would have been great for boxing & maybe Floyd would be 50-0 now, instead of fighting McGregor.

    Everyone knows that Tim fought a bad fight against Provodnikov. He said himself he wanted to prove he could go toe-to-toe with him.
    Mayweather would of beat Tim B. & Tim B. beat manny in the 1st fight clear. Jim lamply had you listening to him instead.....

          Floyd ducked Casamayor now? Lol you're seriously reaching. You just named a bunch of (at best) B-Level guys.

          Going the distance with Pacquiao "post testing" isn't exactly something special or maybe you haven't noticed?

          Tim was never an elite fighter. Just an above average guy who benefited from the b.s. at Top Rank. And I want to point out that you named a bunch of 140 guys. Guys like Bradley get ate up by Mayweather. They're too small to matter for him.

            This is news to you? Yes, Floyd ducked Casamayor, Freitas, Stevie Johnston, Paul Williams, Margarito and PRIME Pac, Mosley, Cotto. GTFO with this post testing nonsense. It was Floyd caught with a banned IV in case you forgot.

            Bradley fought guys Floyd's size and bigger. But it's interesting that you admit Floyd was big at 147, considerably larger than Marquez, Hatton, and Pac when he fought them.

              Homie, don't you get it yet? Anytime Floyd and a fighter didn't fight, it's because Floyd ducked the guy, regardless of the facts or the circumstances.

              Additionally, the guys that Floyd didn't fight were all 1st ballot HOF'ers with amazing attributes when a fight with Floyd didn't materialize. Yet somehow, the rest of the career they were just average or slightly above that.

                Given the big money fights were Pac and/or Mayweather, and he got THREE with Pac - would you have left Arum ?

                (oh, and Floyd would have won anyway)

                  Tim had a great career and was fun to watch.

                  Him versus Money would have been interesting to see, especially when both were prime. I have to side with Floyd (49-0), but I think Tim would have at least competed. Tim has a great resume- only lost to a HOFer and took another one (JMM) out that was favored.

                    Bradley was never anything special at WW, hes a bit overhyped at WW if u look at the numbers. he never beat any top WWs outside of Pac man (which was not really a win) another fighter whos WW resume is a bit overhyped. u can argue JMM was a good WW win but he himself was never really a WW. Vargas was a decent win... Bradley was a good 140 fighter and he got paid good money with a good career... and LOL another fighter Floyd ducked right? oh man

                      You sure? Didn't Tim say he wasn't going to chase a Floyd fight and then signed with TR?
