In your honest opinion who "scared" Floyd the most?

I think it is quite obviously Margarito. With Pacquiao there has been all these other factors (GBP v TR, OSDT, Floyd vacations). With Margarito, Floyd straight up wanted nothing to do with him. Iron bearded and plaster handed he would've pressed Floyd hard for an entire fight. Still would have lost handily, but he would've taken Floyd to hell and back IMO.

I don't think Floyd is really or ever was scared of fighting anybody in his league, a guy that fought for so long for a living to me doesn't constitute being afraid to fight someone he stands a chance of beating. though i don't really care much for him personally, i do respect his skills and work ethic.
I do think more than losing a fight, he's afraid of losing that "0". I think he wants to go out undefeated, so he avoided a couple guys that he wasn't sure he could beat. That being said, I do think Margo was the guy he avoided the most. Hell, most guys didn't want to fight him in his prime.
Leaving the wraps issue out of it, the guy was relentless, big, iron chinned, iron will, lots of stamina, hardly any real skill, constantly throwing punches, pressure brawler with a great uppercut. A nightmare for most guys. As much as i dislike the guy, he did have some good attributes. I think Floyd would have beaten him at anytime in a hard won fight.
I voted for Pac in the poll, but since have changed my mind.Last edited by jazluvr; 11-13-2012, 06:31 PM.

I voted for margo as early as the first page of this thread and I'm the biggest pacfart around. D

Nobody was ever afraid of Pacquiao, Cotto or ****ing Margarito. 11 or more fighters werent scared of those 3. I'd do what you're doing though. Keep up the bad work!

Damn, Frank Sucktits Is going loco. It's so funny seeing these flowmo's get all worked up and emotional over Floyd's reputation. Every third post is him saying Mayweather isn't afraid of anybody. He has to refute every criticism. They all do.
They think these Floyd threads get so much attention because he's popular but it's really the entertainment value these idiots bring to the table. You can almost feel the pathetic butt hurt in every post.
