    I respect Floyd the Athlete for taking this fight but in terms of respecting him as a person :nono

    in all sincerity I do respect him this was a huge surprise to wake up to...:thumbsup

    Now if he losses and acts like a ***** about it well lets just see it play out...

    Good stuff.

    If Floyd was ever to lose it would be fitting against a young, hungry lion like Alvarez. But it wont :rasta

    I respect this choice of opponent. I've always respected his skills.

    I reserve the right to criticize his past choices of opponents and his public behavior.

    floyd's almost makes up for not fighting pacman for me by taking this fight.. a catchweight is fair . this is the fight that i thought would never happen so i'm very excited.

    i got floyd by unanimous decision

    You must not respect very many boxers then, including ATGs..... Just saying.

    But on that note: I don't think any athlete should be admired for anything but the hard work and craft they display in their sport. They're athletes, not role models.

    Is like to think that real boxing fans would have respected him long ago.

    Yes. But i would've respected him a lot more had there been no catchweight.

    It's a good fight but why impose again advantages? Just shows how afraid he is to lose that "0".
