    Did you include Floyd's 2 years ducking in the 14 years total?

    Can you just wait 2 more years and he will surpass the 13 years officially. He will probably have 2 fights more.

    Pernell Whitaker as well was considered past it by the time he was that age also......One thing people overlook is yeah Floyd may not fight the top fighters whom we may want him to fight and when we want him to fight them but

    Why do *****s love to make HOMO threads?

    Can't debate, you put up homo threads?

    Is that a reverse psychology so that I would call you a ***, which you really like?

    its not amazing when think abut how long 14 years really is....and knowing he never unified 1 title in any of the 5 divisions he won titles at. that means every time he entered a new division, there were always 3 top guys he never fought, so at a minimum he would be fighting the 5th best guy in his first defense, because he along with the other 3 guys had belts.

    not so amazing like that...cherry picking at its finest

    No doubt, It's a testament to Floyd's work ethic he can last this long & still be on top. That & the purses are so much larger than before that a fighter don't have to go out there & scrap as much.

    no. end of. simple not sure why people wont just answer a question. not like if you say yes to this youre saying floyd (the best in the business) is the best in your opinion. you just acknowledge hes done something thats extremely rare if done by anyone else.

    Are you the giver or the taker?

    Puga seems a little more assertive, so do you do all the bending? :hey

    Why is it that every time there's a thread praising Floyd you have to go on some corny rant about '***** this and ***** that' ????

    You elude to Floyd fans being obsessive with Floyd but you're just as obsessed with hating on him and his fans, you and Lance_Uppercut are just ****ing pathetic with it already....
