Floyd's resume.

[blowblow]

Why you talking about Manny .

who are you talking to? you're not invited to our discussion.. no friends?

2 points:

1. He was the underdog against Corrales.

2. This is really weird to hold it against someone that they are always favored. DO you do this in other sports?

For example-is Lewis Hamilton not great because he is expected to win every F1 race? Were the 72-10 Bulls not the best because they were favored to beat everyone? What about the Brazilian soccer teams with Pele? The 27 Yankees? The great Montreal Canadians hockey Teams? The 85 Bears? UConn's women's Hoops? Kareem's UCLA teams? Cael Sanderson in NCAA wrestling? Serena? Simeone Biles?

Floyd is literally the only athlete/team you and others hold dominance and not losing against. In every other sport winning and being the clear favorite over other professionals is a sign of greatness and a something that earns respect.

1) Being underdog against Corrales not because Corrales was really good but rather Floyd was early on in his career and floyd was more unknown quantity back then. Being underdog once over career isn't really.taking risks and striving for greatness.

2) Of course Floyd will be favoured if he don't take risks be it home advantage, cw, fighting green fighters not in their prime or old fighters past their best and people will hold it against floyd. Why don't he fight nel o now? Why, because people think Floyd would lose? Well prove us wrong and then we won't say your overated. Give us a reason to say you're better than we thought you were.

Floyd being favourite don't make people not think Floyd's overated. It was there for floyd to do things people didn't think he could do, for floyd to show you he was better than we even.thought he was, and apologise to floyd for underestimating floyd.
Like we did to Ali when he beat foreman. Like we did to Pac when he beat Thurman.
Floyd wasn't great as he was favourite against pac. He was favourite because Pac was a former flyweight with 70 fights under belt not far removed from devastating ko to jmm. Floyd being favourite against nel o don't make Floyd great. He was favourite as nel o was young and green and drained and hadn't looked particularly great in any of his fights.
Being favourite in Floyd's case means he was playing it safe

Just talking to another dumb Manny fanboy , not that many left on here I guess most are realizing after the last round of big name dropping then pick another easy beat that Manny really is a cherry picker and he has done this same name dropping to justify fighting a soft touch his entire WW career .

roidblock the mental blocked..

It has been documented that ODH, Shane and Manny refused to fight him. You're never honest about it so I don't expect you to be now.

Please just go back to sucking off blowblow. It's the only real talent or skill you have.

It is also documented that guys called Floyd out and Floyd either ignored it and in the case of Margarito,
Winky Wright and Manny, just backed out of the fights completely. Floyd also ducked out the welterweight division completely when it was the strongest.
Big Dunn 80,000 posts sucking Floyd strong. Why you on here, to cry about Floyd not being treated fairly.

This is a very very simple logic. If boxing legends and boxing aficionados are in agreement that floyd only fought guys under his watch/terms then it's very safe to say that floyd was a nayural cherry picker.

- -Manny set all the Ring p4p records, not TBE TUE 51-0 who ain't even in the same ballpark. What grade the OP in?

[BodyBagz]

May is w/o question the greatest boxer of his era. A true ATG

One of the more interesting classes I took while getting my Econ undergrad was Economics of Sport.

It's mostly statistics, but there's some psychology in there as well, and this is for a reason: understanding the psychological part will help you round out your statistical models to do things like make handicap games or make crazy money on DraftKings or whatever.

And one of the more interesting things you learn is that, consistently, when a team or individual athlete has wins consistently to the point that it can be assumed they'll always win, people in general have trouble accepting that its happening legitimately. "If one team is always winning, something shady MUST be going on."

And you see it everywhere: when a team gets hot in the NBA for a few seasons in a row, fans start suggesting the league is rigged. Tom Brady's a cheater. Serena Williams is on steroids. So on.

This pattern of thinking is so extreme that fans, statistically, don't even like it when their own teams win all the time. A study of the major American sports showed that teams bring in far less revenue when they have an undefeated season than if they lose a few games early.

Floyd is the most extreme example of this kind of attitude because he never lost, and left bitter fans so psychologically damaged that they'll be making threads and videos trying to discredit his accomplishments until the day he dies.

ask hopkins, whyte, garcia, chavez and other boxing legends about floyd resume and they will tell you one thing... "floyd only fought guys under his watch/terms aka cherry picker".
