    Yeah, Lamont Peterson is the only one I would actually like Floyd to lose to, him taking the torch from floyd at 147 in 2013 would be a big moment in boxing. From homeless to #1 p4p?

    Looking at many of Peterson's fights he seems to be able to effectively force everyone onto the backfoot. Floyd is most def showing more strength these days but for some reason I feel Peterson can back him up
    to the ropes. I think about the first fight with Castillo (which I thought
    Floyd won), and Peterson can fight effectively the same way and
    he's more responsible defensively.

    That's a reasonable argument:good I never thought of it before but you're right, Peterson does have the tools to implement Castillo's game plan.

    Ali is most overrated fighter in history.

    Tyson may be greatest.

    Barrera is still underrated
    Ricardo Lopez has always been underrated.
    Ricky Burns did not duck Broner
    Morales is,at best,30% of the wonderful fighter he once was
    Too many people take for granted that it's easy for fighters to move up the weights
    Andre Ward may well be #2 P4P
    Chava Sanchez would have gone on to be better than Chavez Snr
    Bernard Hopkins is anything but a *****.

    Gennady will win a version of a world title at super middle
    Although a true warrior, macklin is the most overrated British fighter based on skill
    Haye would rectify his tarnished rep if he moved back down to a stronger cruiser division than the one he dominated
    'burns ducked broner' is the most ridiculous troll ever (seeing as burns is not scared of losing, unlike practically every fighter)

    I think Floyd would beat Lamont pretty easily. Lamont just doesn't have the power to really hurt Floyd.

    Ricardo Lopez is the greatest Mexican fighter of all time.
    That Taylor stoppage was bull****, he got up, they distracted him, and waved the fight off.
    Manny Pacquaio is border-line ******ed.. although that's not really controversial. Kid's just slow.
    Mayweather isn't racist, he's just ignorant. Broner is the racist one.
    Clottey won the Cotto fight.
    Floyd is vastly overrated.
    Martinez beats Ward and Bute.
    Buboy had sex with Manny's wife, and one of Manny's kids is Buboy's.
    Tyson didn't **** that *****.. although he had very rough sex with her.
    There's a homosexual vibe coming from the Wildcard gym..

    Haye would beat Vitali if they fight soon.

    Prince Naz is the best P4P boxer Britain has ever produced.

    Prime Tyson beats Prime Lewis.

    Floyd soundly outpoints Pac Man, but does not finish him.

    Ricky Hatton will go untouched in terms of popularity for quite some time compared to other boxers on the rise in England. It is going to take years before England loves another boxer as much as we loved Hatton.

    Wladamir will not be beat before he reties, but Vitali might do.

    Chris Eubank is unintentionally the funniest man in boxing history.

    Prime and focused Roberto Duran was unbeatable and P4P the GOAT.

    - vintage fighters from the 50s could not deal with current boxers
    - Mike Tyson is so overrated, it hurts.
    - Matthysse is significantly better than Maidana
    - Lennox Lewis is the best H2H boxer in HW history
    - George Foreman had horrible foot speed and would be disadvantaged against a lot of good heavies
    - Larry Holmes is overrated
    - Floyd Mayweather is undefeatable at 130 and would outpoint Pac at any weight with a large margin
    - Lack of trash talk among Eastern Euros hurts boxing. This ain't snooker.
    - Max Schmeling is a one-hit-wonder
    - Adrien Broner will amount to nothing. He's style over substance and nowhere near Floyd. Lightweights will eat him up.
    - Prime Holyfield would stand zero chance against either Klit. The style match up is horrible for him
    - Hopkins has surpassed RJJ all time P4P with his victory (or rather victories) over Pascal

    David Haye would whip Vitali's ass if given the chance. And Vitali knows it.

    If Ovill Mckenzie was given the same management and protection offered to the likes of Cleverly and Bellew he would be considered the best Light Heavyweight in Britain, undefeated and fighting at world level.

    You could say the same of many fighters from 3rd world countries that come to the West to make a living boxing. If Glen Johnson was American born and bred his record would have at least 12 less defeats and he'd be held in as high regard as the likes of Bernard Hopkins or Roy Jones Jr.
