Floyd's resume.
Collapse

His resume is full of opportunistic opponent cherry picks. Smoke and mirrors. There isn’t one name on his resume where at that time that opponent was the one opponent everyone wanted to see him fight and was the very best at that time.
There was an angle to each opponent. Pretty much smoke and mirrors.blowblow likes this.

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
It's fine that you don't like Floyd as a fighter. But to delete that post and not give him credit for doing what you asked him to do shows you are a completely biased scumbag that can't admit they were wrong.
You made up a list you thought was impossible to go undefeated through yet Floyd did just that. It's time you acknowledged his greatness and admit you were wrong. Until you do, you will not have any credibility whatsoever.

That’s no reason not to debate it though. It’s a great resume but it could have been even better.
We still question Robinson, Leonard, Armstrong, Roy etc. There’s no reason not to question Floyd too as long as it’s objective.
I just don't get how there needs to be an "objective" discussion among people on this site. If this were ESPN, maybe. I just figure its beneath us who have accounts on this site for the reasons I stated before.

you can suck my dck if you want coz that's your forte.
Floyd and Khn simply didn't fight, just like Manny and Zahir Raheem or Manny and Zab Judah. Unless you're willing to say every fight that didn't happen is a duck by the "bigger name" then please stop the silliness where you call it ducking everytime we come across a guy Floyd didn't fight.
That last line I'm sure you meant for djtmal because you and he engage in circle sucking each other off regularly. I believe you guys call yourselves the 69 boys or Team 69 or whatever it is. I don't wish to be part of what you and he do.Last edited by The Big Dunn; 03-15-2021, 12:43 PM.

As long as it’s objective and not purposely to bait people, I see no issue discussing any fighters resume. The OP of this thread was completely reasonable from my perspective.

It’s largely because he’s recently retired though. People are far more aware of who Floyd fought or could have fought etc. How many people on here could actually dissect Leonard’s resume for example. 10-15 years from now people will be dissecting Canelo’s resume and Canelo fans will be getting all defensive like Mayweather fans do.

You only get a few years in your prime, fighting everyone at their prime is impossible. You can pick apart Floyd's resume if you want, you can do the same to Pacquaio's, but both guys fought dozens of champions and fought the majority of the important fighters near their weight of their eras.
Floyd will always be a target, he's so disliked by some that people hate on him vicariously by hating on Canelo because Floyd beat a young Canelo. Well, that win is looking like an all time great win right now. An old and over the hill Mayweather schooled a young buck who is now himself threatening all time status.Last edited by Johnny2x2x; 03-16-2021, 11:14 AM.

No Floyd fan is defensive, just tired of people pretending there is something reasonable to discuss.

You can't pretend these things didn't happen, no matter how much you despise Floyd for belittling and then defeating your hero and idol.

Keep making up the excuses. Meanwhile Robert Guerrero, Victor Ortiz, Marcos Madonna 2X, Conor McGregor, and the Japanese kickboxer is who Floyd beat in their prime.
