    rememeber when ricky hatton signed to fight floyd, that was the same argument from his fans (thank god floyd got rid of him).

    another way to tarnish floyd's legacy if pac ever gets brave enough to fight him.

    styles make fights. this would be a bad fight for floyd. pacs volume punching, relentlessness, speed, foot work would give floyd problems. floyd only fights slow, plodding fighters.

    Well Pacman has nothing to prove any more, he's already a certified HOFer...he can do as he pleases. If Pac retired tomorrow, most would be happy for the guy...Floyd on the other hand has lots of questions to answer, therefore more pressure. Can he actually fight and beat the best in his division without cherry picking? That 0 is always gonna be there too...that's a little reason why his fights draw so much, can he lose? Pac man already has L's so it doesn't matter any more because he's proved himself as a HOFer by beating the best and being P4P the best for years.

    those were the worse ko's in 2000s. yes pacman getting koed is up there will all the other brutal kos. we not gone act like it was not one of the most brutal kos becasue it was. it was vicious but i also knew he would be fine. i never thought he was dead like some people like to say.

    Pac's never been the best P4P fighter so just stop it. You can't go life and death with JMM for 4 fights and be the best. PBF is a top 25 ATG right now an if he finishes his career 50-0 he will be a top 15 ATG. Maidana is a cherry pick but if Pac fought Maidana next it would be a good fight. That right there shows you how good PBF is guys who are good fights for everyone else are considered cherrypicks for PBF because he's so much better than everyone.:deal

    Fortunately, guys in earlier eras didn't have to deal with all the headaches that happen nowadays. Blood testing agency fueds, casino fueds, network fueds, beer sponsor fueds etc.

    They dealed with a lot of crap, just in different ways.

    The failure of Mayweather and Pacquiao to meet in 2010-11 will always be a stain on their legacies and it embarassed the sport.
