On the flip side of the coin. Floyd would never lose to a level B fighter either. You should name the good as well as the bad.

FYI SRL fought the wrong fight against Duran in their first outing.
FYI you know FUCK ALL

FYI you muppet SRL has always fought that way & why should'nt he, BIGGER/STRONGER/FASTER/YOUNGER & he still got outboxed + don't you think that someone with the ring IQ of Leonard would'nt have a plan B, Out of his own mouth came the words "I tried everything" But Duran was always one step ahead of me

You say Floyd has fought more big names when was the last time that cunt fought a live opponant who was'nt on the downside or from lower weights or just plain brain damaged like Ortiz Squeaks past an old man in DLH then legs it! Fights WBU-B level Hatton, drags counterpuncher Marquez up from Lightweight, Baldimir who could'nt outsprint a bag of cement! Gatti!! Washed up punchbag pug! Cotto! Never the same fighter after those 2 hammerings at the hands of Margo & Pacman. WOW what a resume.

You ever heard of Marvin Hagler you mug! Wilfred Benitez! Carlos Palomino! this is just 3 he took on 2 & 4 weights above his natural weight & pushing 30 & 33 years of age, he took on the monster Hagler at 32 who SRL & Hearns wanted no part of for obvious health reasons. Duran DUCKED NO ONE & FOUGHT EVERYONE put in front of him regardless of the handicap of age & weight, whilst your girl Floyd has created a whole new lexicon to get out of any possible danger, stating Vacation! Health! No Interest! Tests! Give me ALL the MONEY! Now fuck off back to the MMA forum.

Yeah but Floyd never quit like a bitch in the middle of a fight infront of his fans nor has anyone quite as epicly as Duran did.

Floyd fights guys on the downside? Is ok to dislike the guy but no need to make lies. Floyd has been fighting guys coming off sensational wins. So you should do some research before u post.

Again. Duran losing late in his career is his problem. Duran losing to bigger guys is also his problem. Duran losing to b level fighters is still his problem. When Floyd start doing the same thing it will be his problem.

You've list a lot of B level fighters as big names. William Joppy? Vinnie Paz, Robbie sim? Nino Gonazlez. Joesph Ns.
I listed top 10 rated opponents.

You talk as if Floyd isn't close to being over the hill. Go watch PBF and then watch Money and tell me if there isn't a drastic change.
No I'm not. I'm well aware that Mayweather's getting long in the tooth now and is sliding a bit, but he's not as past it as Duran was when he was losing to Kirkland Laing.

Quote:
Still Floyd still can find a way to dominate guys at age 36 and beat guys younger and bigger.
Against whom, exactly? Victor Ortiz? Duran besting Davey Moore and Iran Barkley is more impressive than beating Ortiz.

Quote:
As for SRL, He fought Duran Flat footed, thinking he can slug it out with Duran even though SRL is more than capable to get on his bike.
Have you ever considered that it was Duran's skill and ability, rather than Leonard fighting the "wrong" fight that lead to that victory?
I doubt it.

Thats like chop chop corely, angel manfreddy, Gatti level.

Still Floyd still can find a way to dominate guys at age 36 and beat guys younger and bigger. Why? use ur brain. And he will continue to win like that for several more years. Maybe not against the young elites in a couple more years but he'll still whoop the young B levels.

As for SRL, He fought Duran Flat footed, thinking he can slug it out with Duran even though SRL is more than capable to get on his bike.
If that was truly the case, Duran likely gets KO'ed. Leonard was just outskilled, on about every level and front. He found Duran almost impossible to land on clean with any type of consistentcy and was buckled several times by sharp, accurate counter shots without Duran even needing to get inside.

I doubt it.
Floyd has been fighting top 10 guys even before his first title match with Generado Henderaz.
