Lol. Typical Floyd Boy resorts to name calling when all else fails.
I thought your thread said who's skills was better Srl or Floyd? Say what? You mean beating shopworn Manny don't put you ahead of Srl on any list?
Lol. They forgot to tell you there's levels to this son.Comment

I see you gave up on your lie about prime Hatton being better than past-prime manny. That’s a step in the right direction for you djdipsh1atComment

What I feel as well. One of the great tragedy's though of boxing in recent times in my view is Mayweather not fighting Pacquiao when in their primes eg 35 years or under . Would have given the sport we all know and love more credibility .Comment

So besides all your crying and whining what it is it your actually trying to say, Ray got a lot of rubbish in his resume, Tommy got beat and hurt many times by average fighters, Hagler also had many weak spots in his resume, there is not a resume in existence that cant be deflated, the bottom line is the very best of any era will hold their own with the very best of any era from about 1940 on.Gtfoh. The best guy Floyd beat at his best was prime undefeated Ricky Hatton, and Floyd beat Manny by a wide margin my a@@, he barely outpointed a past prime Manny in a lackluster affair which he mostly did more holding than anything else.
This Floyd beat Manny exaggeration just keeps getting worse and worse and yeah, we know saying he beat Manny sounds a lot more prestigious than beating Ricky Hatton, but the truth of the matter is, beating a past prime Manny doesn't come close to beating a prime undefeated Hatton and to a lesser degree an undefeated Canelo Alvarez.
Sugar Ray didn't need two tries to beat Duran because Duran was better than Manny, it's because it was two guys in their prime equally as good that needed two fights to settle who was the best. That's what the game is all about.
Maybe Floyd skillwise is a little better technically than Ray, but when it comes to who put their skills to the test and came out on top against prime opposition, Ray runs circles around Floyd. Furthermore, its no coincidence that most top ten ww lists Ray comes out on top of Floyd (top two or three consistently), while Floyd barely cracks top ten. Floyd just did not want to take the necessary risks with the skills he had.
Youre into the hype of it all, the boxing says there is very little between them, probably size is the biggest variable, you live of the romance of history and badly underestimate the best of the next or current eras , believe me there is very little between ATGs.Comment

I think pacquiao’s poor performance against him also dented Floyd’s legacy.
If Pacquiao gave it 100% and Floyd won, it would have helped Floyd’s position as ATG.Comment

Unique way of looking at it
Had Floyd winning very comfortably, but they both showed too much respect to each otherComment

You start a thread topic asking who is more skilled between Srl and Floyd.
You say a past prime Manny is Floyd's best win when it is clearly not. Plenty of lists put prime undefeated Hatton over Manny but I understand you gotta save face.
You say Srl needed two tries to beat Duran because Duran is better than Manny, which doesn't make any sense at all.
It's obvious you want to make a case for Floyd being more skilled than Ray, but after a dose of the truth, it's back to overexaggerating one of the most lackluster wins on the resume next to Carlos Baldimir.Comment

Manny was shut down, first right hand counter Manny became shy to fully engage because he was being off footed and counted, he couldn't do anything or get anything going so he basically shelled up and Floyd just cruised for a easy UD.Comment
