Theres no way floyds win over nelo is better.
    That's not provable as Canelo was already a seasoned title holder at the time (9x title fights) and since nobody else but GGG has beaten Canelo since Floyd fought him, with some pretty good names like Cotto, Lara, Khan and Jacobs on his resume.

    Now on the other hand, when Haggler first lost, it was way before he started his title fight campaign and obviously was nowhere near his prime yet.

    Surely you can see the difference. It's apples and oranges, really.

      Not to play devils advocate on purpose but just because he got hurt doesn't man he was anywhere near 'almost stopped'.

        But people thought nel o was taking Floyd fight too soon. Nel o had not beaten anyone of note. Trout was good win but trout himself only had 1 good win. Plus people accept the idea nel o has improved since Floyd fight so conclude Floyd didn't beat a version of Nell that he should get a ton of credit for, with the cw thrown in, with Floyd essentially sabotaging himself. Just like Hag Le r improved

          Lol Thurman was HURT IN PLENTY OF HIS FIGHTS!!

          Are you some sort of casual!!
          Have you not seen Collazo fight vs Thurman?!

          For Christ Sakes Manny had him hurt and running in the tenth! Doesn’t mean he was almost stopped or close to giving up. It’s combat sports you nitwit!

          You casuals make me laugh!!

          PRIME THURMAN got BATTERED by forty year old Manny Pacquiao!!

          PAC won 10 rounds in that fight!

            Thurman at his weight, Canelo drained to death.

            Let's see Mayweather get in a ring with Thurman at this age, Thurman by KO right now.

            Floyd always fought with advantages created for him, even the refs would step in if someone was hitting and creating any kind of danger for Floyd. Sorry, but the state boxing is in today with all the cherrypicking and BS is because they let this guy abuse of it.
            Dude stop Floyd beat pac and canelo pac still a top 5 in ww so if Floyd only beats guys who aren't threats that means thurman is not good because he lost to pac who lost to Floyd just admit you picked canelo and pac to beat Floyd they lost so now you still with the excuses

              Cool story bro!

              Black Floyd beat Midget pino. Always with advantages before entering the fight.
              F Clenelo, but Floyd made him a corpse before the fight with the weight. LOL.

              If that is the best you have to offer, besides my wife who is black, FU.

              Strange life I have, Norwegian mom with black wife reading Habermas and reading NSB, Lord I must be mad.

                    No, it’s not. Nobody is even thinking of that fight.
                    It was an entirely different Canelo.


                    You DKSAB.

                      man, you better believe them saying floyd's win over pac is getting better and better!

                      the wins of the other fighters who beat pac before floyd, like torrecampo etc., are getting better and better, too!
