    Who misses floyd? Be honest

    I used to loathe floyd but I miss seeing him fight. I feel like we are now in a era of wannabe floyds with not even 1/4th of the charisma. Everyones on nelos nuts but who remembers the schooling floyd gave him? Even conor mcgregor did better against floyd then the so called 'p4p#1' lol

    I do. That's the true definition of a GREAT, an A+ boxer. Canelo, his pupil, sits comfortably at A-!

      I dont! He was a beast back in the day but now with that safety first style he is boring as ****! He def changed the game tho. He paved the way for fighters to get paid $$$. But also made fighters worry so much about losing their 0 that we dont have the best fights cuz of fear of losing.

        I think u nailed it. I’m a Floyd fan since I saw him turn pro and u could see he was special. We went to his Judah fight and it was a spectacle. It’s not his fault cause it’s us fans and media that made so much deal of him being undefeated but he knew it was his golden goose. Canelo even has a couple draws in his early career, changes the marketing. U had to tune in to see if Floyd was gonna lose, u had to be there. Loses count for so much in boxing. Years from now Canelos the details of Canelos “W” against GGG will fade, and losing close won’t count worth a hill of beans compared to getting the Win.

            Canelo was green and weight drained when Floyd the opportunist fought him

              Canelo was already a unified champion when Floyd fought him

                That’s because the Conor fight was a total fughin sham
                Floyd carried him until he could cash in on his over

                No , I don’t miss Floyd

                    He beat Trout who beat Cotto at the time Canelo had 2 belt how can you be green and have 2 belts?

                    Don't make no excuses now because he lost Canelo was the #1 jr MW at the time
