Why do people think Paul Williams had ANY chance against Floyd?

    Mayweather's hand problems are clear and proven. Unlike Manny's shoulder.

    Floyd fought champions and guys who had countries behind them. Paul Williams, to someone on the street, was a Temptations singer. Nobody knows the boxer.

    As said, some of you were just so hell bent on finding someone - ANYONE - to beat this guy who doesn't seem to ever lose, you jumped on bandwagons. Every one of them would shortly after get put to sleep by underdogs. It's time to stop the bandwagons.

      Don't see when they were supposed to fight:

      2007: Floyd beats De La Hoya

      2 Months later: PWill beats Margarito (That's when he first becomes noteworthy)

      Floyd's next fight: Ricky Hatton

      2 months later: PWill's next fight? Loss to Carlos Quintana

        That's what I'm saying. Floyd beat back-to-back draws - De La Hoya who was money walking at the time and Ricky Hatton who people thought was going to beat Floyd just because he was undefeated. Guys who pulled tens of thousands of fans to the seats. He wasn't worried about a guy who nobody knew who very nearly got knocked out by Margacheato.

          I have no problem with a different opinion but your posts deify reality. You make some of the stuipest one sided comments but then again...from you it's become expected.

          Everyone knows you’re a troll, a negative bot sock puppet..LMMFAO!!

            What does that say about Floyd? By your metrics, every single fighter Floyd picked from 147 on were far beyond past their prime...nice try...lol

              You're consistent, I'll give you that. Character assassination when you can't intelligently refute a single thing I posted.

                A fighter cant fight everyone but it sure gives the haters a long list of ducks lol .
                What's your basis, where's the logic for your comment?? I can only assume you didn't know that Spence beat Floyd up in the gym or that Williams begged Haymon to get a fight with Floyd and Floyd straight up refused to fight Williams.

                  Context:
                  Floyd claimed he'd fight everyone up to 154, even claimed to want to fight Winky... to which Winky Wright laughed. Floyd instead fought the ever dangerous Feather duster salesman from South America. Floyd won the fight establishing himself as the 147 lineal champ. Mayweather then rejected an $8 million offer to fight Antonio Margarito and flat refused to fight Paul Williams. In 2007 Floyd fought at 154 as long as they were anyone not named Vernon Forrest or Winky Wright. Williams couldn't land a fight with either Mosley, Floyd or Oscar so he moved up to fight the 160lb Martinez.


                  Everyone knows that you are not interested in honest dialogue but I thought I would give context anyway for those reading this.

                    You're right, the Lara fight was a gift. I got carried away while arguing with idiots.

                      drain fighters dont throw career highs in punches

                      So are you saying that Canelo wasn't drained trying to make 152 CW even though he admits to it being the toughest thing that he had to do and their team complaining about it throughtout that time? And seeing how he was at the weigh-in? He looked drained. Floyd's team was also stating that Canelo will be draining himself!!!!


                      So was Floyd Maywaeather severally dehydrated or was that all BS when he said that he needed an ILLEGAL BANNED IV?


                      Funny how many Floyd fans do not believe anyone that Floyd fought was dehydrated (Corrales, Canelo,...) but those same people say that what happened to Floyd was not a LIE and BS!
