Why does Floyd not understand that looking great is not the same as being great?

    So many holes..

    First I'm pretty sure Floyd knows that "looking great" is not the lone item that makes him great.

    Also, Floyd's oppositino AS A WHOLE is not bad at all.

    GOAT @ 130..

    @135 took on the best they had at the time in Castillo

    @140 he fought pretty good opposition

    @147 he beat the lineal champ and has some nice victories over a #3 ranked in the world Shane Mosley and a #2 ranked WW in Shane Mosley..

    @154 he fought the best opposition available at the time in Oscar De La Hoya...(Vernon had just got a gift the previous August).

    I got Floyd in my top 40...

    What Floyd means is that he just doesn't get the respect..

    He fights the #2 and 3 ranked guys in the world (#1 didnt wanna test) and he beat em..

    To your topic though, I doubt Floyd thinks he is the greatest for the LONE reason of "I look good in fights":deal

    :lol: One day, I will read a defence of Floyd's shoddy 135+ opposition that doesn't say "beat the lineal ww champ" in order to make the cherrypick from shitty Baldomir sound like a grand achievement. One day it will happen, there will be an objective, rational *****... one day.

    Hey Popknis no reason to be hurt about it..

    Just was pointing out that overall, he has fought very good competition..

    Lately he CLEARLY fights better opposition than the consensus #1 lb 4 lb fighter in the world...

    U can say what you want and mix and match how you want to..

    Comes right down to it Floyd got a pretty good resume and that 0 is something to be looking at highley..

    This isnt Spadafora or Chavez Jr. competition man..last I checked Floyd's last 2 fights have been against 2 of the 3 best in the world:bbb

    :hi: goin off on Popkins:hat

    o and your rebuttal was freakin horrible...u brought up his competition at 135....thats nice...he still beat Castillo...didnt spend long at 35 either..never said it was great @ 135or anything..get it right..

    :lol::lol::lol: And the only thing worse than trying to make Baldomir out to be a good win is trying to make Marquez out to be a good win. You have outed yourself as an irrational ***** fanboy here. Congrats!

    and that is your opinion...

    another weak a$$ rebuttal...

    Nobody said anything about Baldomir being a rational win dummy..just mentioned that wether you LIKE IT OR NOT he was the Lineal Champ and ranked higher than Margarito on many lists....I believe Zab had the 2 spot at that time and took care of that in the April before.....go back and read the posts..

    u just been fukin owned:deal:|:think

    It is true that Floyd would be considered greater if he had more of a "fight anyone, anywhere" mentality.

    Floyd doesn't get the credit he deserves as a fighter. It a pattern. If Floyd hasn't fought a guy, they hype him up and claim he would kick Floyd's ass. Floyd beats him then they make excuses. People hype the **** out of fighters who haven't fought Floyd just becasue they need to be able to say "oh he avoided such and such". They will never admit that Floyd has already faced a much higher caliber of fighter than the people he's wrongfully accused of ducking.

    I'm not saying that Floyd's resume couldn't be better. But I think considering the fact that boxing is a business, and it takes multiple people, and money to agree, its pretty good. People forget that Arum owned Floyd for 87% of his career, so If you want to blame anybody, blame Arum for not doing right by one of the most skilled and talented fighters in the history of the sport.

    By the way, CEO of Pwnage International, why do you think Mayweather's best wins and performances at 130lbs were better than those of Julio Cesar Chavez Sr?

    Please refer to Chavez's wins, performances and opponents in your response. :D














    (as usual, those who claim "pwnage" don't have the knowledge to actually back these claims up. And as usual, it's me that takes out the General Forum trash - :smoke)

    now your off topic and your insulting....

    got owned n your own thread..pathetic:deal

    n u'd rather debate about me owning you rather than get back on YOUR OWN THREAD TOPIC...

    :patsch

    Again..back to the posts where you made some claims on things I NEVER said..

    uhhh yea man..ya got owned...:hi:

    sorry to tell ya and I know you wanna act with some sarcasim to play it off...but in the end of the day you should try and rebuttal with something more as focusing on me telling you I owned you in each post shows you dont wanna touch the real side of the argument:hat

    go to school then talk to me smart guy:nut

    Floyd will get the props he deserves when he retires for real and everyone realizes how special and one of a kind his talents really are.

    Same with Pac.
