    Take your trolling hatred elsewhere, you under educated ****. "I don't hate Floyd, I just go to every thread he's being talked about to talk negatively about him without having any of my facts straight or any ****ing clue about what I'm talking about"

    So what? all that means is that Pac has far more milage on his now than Floyd does.

    Get your head out of your ass and don't be so biased.

    Hell, I might even have Floyd higher than you on an ATG list, it's doubtful, but possible.

    Who gives a ****? It proves nothing PAC was a big weight drainer at the lower weights everyone knows this. He fought pbf and lost pbf is the best fighter of the era and the greater fighter that's all that really matters.

    I want it because it's the true testament to being TBE. And because Genadi is my homeboy and I want him to finally become a ppv star.

    It's not ridiculous at all. RJJ went from 175 and fought Ruiz who I believe weighed about 222 for that fight.

    Duran started at 118 and fought at 168 before he wrapped it up.

    Greb a middleweight beat Tunney, who went on to defeat Dempsey.

    Spinks at 175 went to heavy and beat Holmes.

    And we wouldn't even get to what Friz's, or Sam Langford did.

    If you want to call yourself TBE, you have to achieve what others have done.

    Everybody is different. Some people's bodies continue to fill out. While some guys don't gain a pound after 21.

    Actually not. I rate him in the top 15-20 ATG right now, which is a hell of a lot higher than some on this forum do.

    I'm just trying to put some of the bull**** I keep reading into context.

    No you didn't, you ****ing re****.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floyd_Mayweather,_Jr.

    Mayweather had an amateur record of 84–6[20] and won national Golden Gloves championships in 1993 (at 106 lb), 1994 (at 114 lb), and 1996 (at 125 lb).

    1993 - as a 16 yr old, he was 106lb.

    Where did you prove anything to be wrong, other than the fact that you're too ****ing stupid to check facts?

    A) because the discussion wasn't about Floyd, it was about Pac.

    B) because someone disputed the weight that Pac first became a
    professional fighter and,

    C) I proved that my point was correct.

    Are you honestly trying to dispute that Pac started of in at light flyweight and Floyd started off at 130?

    Do you honestly think you can re-write history?

    I realize that and good for him. Canelo's a good fighter.

    Canelo was tailor made for him. Its a good win, but anyone that understands boxing knows it was an easy fight for Floyd.

    You have a young guy with short arms that has terrible stamina and fights extremely conservatively so he doesn't gas, against an agile stamina king that never runs out of gas, has longer arms and a lot more experience. Floyd's age made it a good fight, but in all honesty, Canelo had no chance.

    On my card, he lost 11 rounds.
