    I miss Floyd does anybody out there relate.

    I can't stand him he was a extremely arrogant ******* and straight up diva. The guy is reason why most fighters today are so whiny and choose weak fights for the $$.

    But I gotta admit I miss having a villain to root against every fight alaways that hope some lone will land that 1 punch or combo and finally put L on that record.

    When he fought literally everyone is watching even with minimal excitement.

        I never really was overly for or against Floyd so I can't really relate to the missing him for that reason part...but yeah I do hate how all these boxers now want to be him, and try to really protect their 0...it sucks..could blame Floyd for that in a way...can't hate on Floyd though, he made a ton of money and in fight sports (or any endeavor really) that is a good thing to do...especially if you aren't selling your soul to do it, and I don't think he did that.

          Not really. He is a legend though. Don't want to see him come back, he did more than enough. Make room for the new talent.

            Def don't want him to comeback but I miss having a unbeatable villain to root against.

              Sometimes I miss that really big fight feeling

              As big as AJ, Canelo are, it’s just not the same as Mayweather on HBO/showtime, even thought you knew it wasn’t going to be a great fight, it was still a different kind of big fight excitement that others don’t generate

                Let Floyd die in peace, he never asked for this attention.

                  He had his time, and people will determine what his career meant to them individually.

                  The best thing for his legacy now, would be to teach a youngster all he knows about the sport. So as the fight game goes forward, it can continue to have a piece of him in it.

                  He scaled the mountain of his choosing, but can he now help someone else get to the same peak?

                  There is a different form of greatness in doing so.

                  The passing of knowledge allows things to overcome the destructive nature of time.

                    Do I miss Floyd, no. Do I miss his talent, absolutely. I would love to see that level of talent and beyond as much as possible.
