    Even Ray Charles can see what Bob Arum is trying to do. :hi:

    Bob lied to pressure Floyd to sign the contract. What's wrong with that ?

    Where would you rank Floyd in terms of pure boxing skill and ability?

    You mean to say you're perfect , because all those judges got it wrong and in your mind, you got it right ?

    Only the Pac/Bradley I the judges were wrong.

    Top 10 for sure. He's one of the greatest in terms of skills, if not THE best MIND in boxing.

    Probably The Best Ever in terms of ability, not resume.

    Yeah with how adamant Floyd was with May 2nd I was working under the assumption it was deadline also but, logic says it is not. It is pretty much too late for Floyd to get any other fight together in time for May 2nd, and any other fight would be more dependent on May 2nd to sell. Whereas, a date for Floyd Pac simply doesn't matter, regardless of what Floyd said. So if it comes off a month or two after May 2nd who cares, as long as it gets made. There's pretty much no time left for other fights, but plenty of time left for Floyd Pac, that's what I'm thinking right now.

    he is my, talent and skill wise, greatest fighter of all time.
    he has everything, the only thing he is missing are in his 5th and 6th weight classes, ko power.

    even tho ko power is not the end all be all, if he had the same power at 47 and 54 he had at 40 he would be easily the goat in most people minds. I don't understand how or why ko's have anything to do with how great one is or one could be, its mostly with the casual fans.

    maybe his money may character would always get in the way. the reason (some) think or try to convince themselves he isn't all he claims is because his persona is really tough to take sometimes.

    in pure talent and skill, I see no match. yes, there is a difference between skill and talent. there has NEVER been a fighter that fans push to go against huge men like GGG prior to Floyd.

    floyds fantasy fights, (where fans have him somethine like 5 and 5000, getting ko'd left and right)... Floyd went from 130 to 154 fighting all the top dogs and people still aren't happy. they want to match him against the best MW we have seen in decades and that I have ever seen.

    people talk like he should move up 8 divisions like pac, well, pac moved from 112 (look how many divisions are within the first 15 lbs) so Floyd moved up further than his body even allowed him to and he still beat the very best
