    Depends. If Floyd's been on the stellas then he's gonna want a few colas when he gets in...

    As much as Floyd fans hate it, as much as it sucks, there really is. Just like Wlad Haye, May Canelo, DLH Pac, etc

    Anyone who places an * next to any of those fights is a complete and total moron.

    The last desperate play of the Pacturds. " It was all down to the shoulder injury "

    BOLLOX.

    Out classed, out thought, out boxed. Simple as that.

    NO MENTION of ANY injury in the post fight interview in the ring. Just the moronic " I thought I won " claim.

    The guy is turning from a gentleman into an a sshole.

    Not many place a * next to may-canelo or klitschko-haye -- but everyone does for pac-klit

    Haye had a broken toe. The dude couldn't move. That wasn't a legit fight.

    Canelo was drained vs May. DLH was drained vs Pac. You can't possibly say that DLH was the same fighter when he fought Floyd than when he fought Pac. Floyd fought a much better and a much healthier DLH. It's impossible to say Pac's win over DLH was equal to Floyd's. Floyd's was more impressive due to DLH's condition.

    If you don't think it's an asterisk you are entitled to your opinion, but I give credit where it's due. All an asterisk means is that it's like a note, something about the fight needs to be mentioned when you talk about the fight.

    I'm not saying those fights are stricken from the record or something. They happened. The results still stand, but there are significant things about those fights that need to accompany the results in the historical record.

    dude Haye was ice skating throughout that entire fight due to a throbbing broken toe. That thing was inflamed beyond belief. He was in agony. He didn't have his normal footwork. You can't mention that fight without talking about the toe. The toe is preceded by a *.

    And while we're on this subject, another fight that has a huge asterisk is Cotto - Martinez. Martinez's knees were messed up badly. Couldn't bend them. It pains me to say it because I respect the heck out of Cotto, but that had an asterisk. As much as I like and respect Cotto, a fully healthy Martinez likely decisions him like he decisioned pretty much everybody else.

    A healthy Martinez had ridiculous footwork and he could have boxed circles around Cotto. Ya'll know it's true so don't lie and say Cotto beat the real Martinez.

    Call me dense, but I'm not getting it. Floyd drained Pac?

    STFU! By that idiotic logic, thousands of fights fit similar criteria. It's PART of the SPORT! And all sports, for that matter. Particularly this one.

    Was Mayweather a 3 to 1 underdog like DLH was?.
