floyd vs real killers

[Eff Pandas]

Well i m sure some people thought Floyd would lose to some of the people he fought and beat, underestimating floyd. So Floyd was better than some believed.
But that's not saying too much. I'm sure some thought jmm might beat floyd, as they didn't think Floyd was that good and overated. But it's still a cherry pick though as there were tougher challenges. It doesn't change that fact just because some might think bloated jmm would beat floyd and it don't mean it's a great win. It just means Floyd did better than you thought.
The bookies certainly didn't have Floyd underdog though.

You're going down a whole other rabbit hole than I was talking about. I'm just saying the dummies who would say Floyd would lose to x & than when Floyd would beat x they'd switch their Floyd is gonna get his ass beat stance into a cherry pick situation. Those were a special type of ****** mfers.

The higher functioning Floyd hater r3tards would even go so far as saying Floyd would never fight x guy cuz Floyd knew he would lose & than when Floyd fought that guy suddenly that guy was washed.

Floyd haters were the greatest haters of all time. Or at least in our era cuz I suspect Jack Johnson haters were on a whole other level.

I’m not a big fan of Floyd but facts are facts and he beat everybody he stepped in to the ring with and that shows how good he was , lower weights he was Davis , Haney , lomachenko rolled in to one and we cannot deny that , would Leonard hearns and Duran beat him , yeah I think so but that’s not bad going indeed.
Whitaker and Pryor would have given him problems for sure

People like OP are who made Floyd rich.

Floyd knew he didnt have KO power at 147 and 147 is where he made his most money.

He played a heel character and played all of you idiots who claim you think hes "boring" to buy all of his PPV's in hopes that your predictions of his loss would come to fruition.

But time and time again he came out as the victor, making you only more desperate looking for that loss that would never be and buying his next PPV.

Don’t see any way Floyd could beat Hearns

I agree. Floyd has a long reach that he used very smartly. That would be negated by Tommy. Tommy has a tremendous jab, good footwork and a dynamite right hand. Then his hand speed which is grossly underestimated. I don't think a prime Tommy Hearns has ever been outboxed. Even Benitez couldn't do it. He's been outslugged but Mayweather doesn't have the power of Leonard, Barkley or Hagler. I don't see it being a win for Floyd. It's possible but not likely.

You'd be surprised if you looked hard enough. If there were.no opponents for floyd as the names were too small in size so would be underdog against floyd, and Floyd wouldn't get much credit, or opponents had too much wear and tear, you need to look for another challenge elsewhere.

Ggg or Sergio or nel o at 160 or even 154. Or fight young lions spence, thurman at 41 like Pac did.
. Certainly better than berto, maidana and better than ortiz. Certainly should fight toughest available and Floyd can't even claimed to have did that. Didn't even fight toughest of a weak bunch, so what does that tell you about floyd?

Floyd admitted he didn't want to fight the best after the best, "there's always somebody else to challenge someone else comes along" to fight Floyd said.

Pac did not fight Spence, and Thurman is over-rated as hell

Maidana would have beaten Keith Thurman

also... Mayweather beat Pacquiao, period !

Mayweather certainly fought better competition than Pacquiao

Pac totally refused to rematch Cotto at 150... no way would he fight Cotto at 154 like Floyd did, and no way would he fight Canelo

Mayweather is simply better in all departments

the tards, when talking about old-school fighters:

"they could not compete with modern fighters today... now we have modern training techniques, dietitians, s&c coaches..."



the tards, when talking about Mayweather:

" no way could Floyd beat those killers from back in the day "

Mayweather would never face a killer so even if you know they’d beat Mayweather (probably would), it’s a moot point.

Name the killers in his era ?

Name the killers at LW ?

When you attach a name to a blanket statement it will be in perspective.

You kids don't know sh it

As I said, Durán would have mopped the floor with your girlfriend.


I am not explaining what happened in that 2nd fight again, you should look into those posts since I have told that story a few times.

Your guy lost that is what happened period. Since you care so much about fantasy match ups, imagine what Floyd could do if he actually had 2 good hands?

Id love to think theres a whole load of fighters from history in floyds weight class that would beat the crap out of him, i cant stand him, but hes as good a fighter as ive seen and hed be a favourite over most fighters from history.

I might take leonard over him and possibly hearns but i could equally see floyd decisioning both.

Apart from the gods of boxing - greb, srr, charles and langford - hes in the argument for the next spot as a p4p all time. ive got him about 7 i think. 50-0 beating 16 champs on the trott, i mean its an exceptional record.

I spent years praying hed lose and he rarely looked like losing, In fact in he rarely looked like losing a round sometimes.
