    2016 Warriors were tired. Period.


    Everyone forgets how they had to win the West down 3-1


    I digress, Floyd sucks.

        You're talking crap. If a fighter wins in the eyes of the vast majority of fans and press and the judges (in a sport known for being the most corrupt) gives it to the more lucrative/home figher then that isn't an 'excuse'.is it making excuses when people blame the judges on ryder not beating Smith, when lara 'lost' to Williams?

          ... He did, eventually... Recently, he (and Hearn) invoked some undisclosed "medical problems"...

            Joshua made very little excuses, right after the fight he said the better man won. Wilder has been pathetic with his excuses in both fights...

                Wilder and his fanbase are the kings of excuses.

                  What was Floyd s excuse for not Rematching pac? Pac said he had bad shoulder and thought he beat floyd with bad shoulder.
                  But it's the fans who make excuses for their fave fighter and turn blind eye

Get up and comeback better, that is what is wrong with this world everyone has a damn excuse and wants to rewrite history instead of facing facts and working to get better...

                    I refuse to entertain excuses or make them as they are pointless, Learn from your mistakes and improve as a person and overcome the mountain that are in front of you. There is no other way about it, every athlete has some type of pain everyday but they have to push through it.
                    So, when Floyd took that 2 year vacation to duck the whole ww division, was it because his hands were hurting, or was it because there weren't any slow, short armed paper champs that he could exploit on a Mexican Holiday
