    Now that he is fighting Alvarez( one of the guys he was ducking or would duck) they will say he is ducking Martinez,ggg,Ward, and anyone else worth a damn below LHW.

    Disappointing that Mosley, Hatton and Cotto then fought him when they were pat their best. I also wouldn't have minded seeing Floyd vs Margarito. Floyds power probably wouldn't have been enough to keep Marg off him. Floyd also doesn't have the highest punch output but you'd have to favour him over someone so much slower and less skilled. Floyd vs Pacquiao in 2010 would have been great of course.

    Winky was always much bigger than Floyd. Paul Williams wasn't that good anyway so that desn't really matter imo but it might have been fun to watch. Tszyu again might have been fun to watch but by the time Floyd got to that weight Tszyu was getting on a bit. I get the feeling if he beat him people would just say Tszyu was past it and not give Floyd credit anyway. Plus he beat Hatton who beat Tszyu.

    I don't see Margo being an issue for Floyd and I think Floyd would have seen it as an easy win. Seems like Arum-centric boxing politics killed that fight just like the Pacquaio fight.

    B grade resume?
    Cottto,Mosley,Oscar,Hatton,Castillo,Corales,Corley,JMM,JUdah,Gatti
    and now Alvarez.
    Current fighters with better resume?
    Pac and Wlad maybe. (both have lost and been KO)

    He gets everyones respect in that ring with his punches. It doesnt matter though in this matchup because Marg is so slow hand and foot.
