    Definitely past his prime, if you are unsure of this you are either new to boxing or an idiot.

    He actually made the blueprint to beat Floyd, people laugh at that concept but its true. He showed boxers how to score points, he just didn't have the energy to do it for 12 rounds. First of all it takes an above average jab to compete with Floyd, DLH had one and he was using it to come in while cutting off the ring. Once he had Floyd against the ropes or corner he would unleash a flurry of punches which mostly landed on Floyds arms and shoulders but nonetheless he was controlling the fight and scoring. Once he abandoned his jab he immediately began losing the fight.

    I'm not gonna go as far to say a young prime DLH could have beat Floyd bc that is unknown but I do believe it would have been neck and neck at the very least if they fought during DLH's prime.

    Look, we all know Mayweather holds all the friggin' cards. So if he wants to fight Pacquiao, then he is the one who can make it happen. . . .

    Girls give you a lot of excuses? Sounds like your game is weak to me. Sure Floyd could get on his knees and make a deal with Arum if he wanted to. I am glad that he is man enough to make a deal on his own terms when he is the "A" side.

    When Pac leaves Arum, we'll see the fight happen.

    A man who visits the camp annually. I know Leonard/Roger/Jeff/Floyd.

    I'm positive I'm far more knowledgeable about the situation than you are or Marvin even. :hi:

    Fact: Marvin has never liked Floyd because he reminds him of Ray.

    dlh was still a top fighter then at 154, prime ? no but not way past it.
    he fought about the same amount floyd fought, once a year. so floyd must have been past it during his early to mid 30's too. never mind now floyd is 37 so he must be in the grave

    I think Hoya was past prime but still in decent shape respective to where he was in his career loses in a division you don't belong in aren't that bad especially if one was to an ATG when he moved back to his natural division he easily KO'd the #1/2 JMW people are gonna say it was just Mayorga like Mayorga wouldn't run through a lot of there favorite welters from that time, considering Hoya came in 160+ and was the #1 champ I say good win

    If he said he's met the money team lets just believe him.

    Still doesn't change the fact that Floyd don't wanna look across the ring and see the Philippine Warrior.

    Yes, I suppose Duran could twist an ankle or something like that.

    As I mentioned before, you fell for the old public perception trick.

    You are either willing or you are not.

    Manny was willing, except a blood test was asking too much.

    Manny was willing, except he didnt know who represents Floyd.

    Manny was willing, except the money wasnt enough.

    Manny was willing, except he needed time to heal from his cuts.

    Manny was willing, so willing in fact that he wants both to fight for charity :roll::roll::roll:

    ...

    Its always something with both these guys.
