Default Re: Name All Time Greats who guarded their 0s as carefully as Floyd.

Definitiely the real deal, though able to thrive on raw talent and ferocity. His skill level was fucking bonkers by the late 70s though -- DeJesus III, Palomino and SRL I being the greatest examples of the infighting, feinting and counterpunching tour de force. He thoroughly schooled them.

so what happened when HBO's greenburg was negotiating with arum and haymon and said that the fight was close to being done (even your idol oscar confirmed this)?

floyd: "i have no urge to fight. i am on vacation."

floyd (presently): "i just lost 15 pounds of muscles, flomos please defend me on boxing forums."

Manny STILL wanted a cutoff. Even though Floyd and Shane just did one with no cutoff and things went perfect

If its genuine, then how come Floyd stopped short along the way and never continued challenging Pac as what most boxers will do. Instead of pursuing the fight by both, it was followed by nonstop BS accusations such as peds issues or split ppv revenues that leads to nowhere. If Floyd was sincere in his words since from the start, this fight should have done by now just like any other fights.

Well Manny was just wasting everyone's time with his cutoff BS so Floyd wasn't going to waste his own time.

floyd claimed he lost 15 pounds in jail. then he mentioned he is not focused on fighting. this was after 50, his good pal, ants to arrange the fight sometime in december or early next year. 50 said, floyd needs more time.

Maybe he isn't focused on fighting? I predicted when he was sentenced he'd take a while before getting back in the ring, or probably even retire. Neither would surprise me since the Pac fight is worthless at this point.

Arrow If MAYWEATHER-PACQUIAO Happens, Then...

It was GBP that was the problem all along. Not Arum.

so it's ok for floyd not to fight pacquiao since it's worthless now but fighting ortiz was full of worth? then why not make pacquiao as a tune-up for martinez since floyd just got out of jail? they were even giving floyd enough time until early of next year.

floyd should just announce his retirement then and not to take long vacations as always when there are perceived threats.
