    Wow, just wow. Apparently Floyd called the shots when he was with Arum too.

    Why do you think he says "hard work & dedication!" Why do you think he still trains like he does. I think that's proof enough that he hasn't forgot what got him to where he is today. But like any fighter, you have to evolve as you get older and as your body brakes down. Floyd's hands have been problematic for years now. You expect the guy to plant his feet and just swing for the fences and have him hope is hands hold up. Well why risk that when he wins comfortably at just boxing. Once again it's on each fighter to impose their will on the other. Can't be mad at Floyd for his opponent not being good enough to get him into a slugfest.

    And speaking of evolving, if PAC had learned to revolve he wouldn't have gotten KTFO6 and if he evolved he would have learned to add more tools to his craft that way he would have been more for a threat to Floyd.

    Funny but the most dangerous welter was recently knocked the f out before Floyd got to him but let us guess Floyd is the one that actually ruined him:patsch

    Apparently Floyd doesn't fight anyone. He could fight Golovkin in September and still get criticized.

    Go and watch another sport. I'm not saying dish out another $100 bucks. But, give the man his due. He made the fighter of the decade, 8 division champion and fellow ATG, look like he was in his first fight. And the thing is, he told you he would 5 years ago. That's greatness that will not be forgotten.

    You mad...just plain and simple. He does not have to be the fighter YOU like to watch. But, he does appeal to a lot of people for a myriad of reasons. Why knock his hustle, because, he easily beat the guy you hoped would crack the code?

    Because most greats don't cherry pick don't take a 2 yr retiremenent then to come back and cherry pick look,at the two biggest draws before Floyd in Oscar and Tyson they could have done what Floyd did but the diffrence is they unlike Floyd actually dared to be great !

    The Madaina fight was decently exciting. Its only because of Maidana!! Im not saying FM is not skilled. I have watched almost all of his fights and most show person on a bicycle and throwing potshots. This is same sad non-inspiring pattern in all his fights, including pacman fight. FM turns around and blames pacman for a borefest, while pac has had over 60 exciting fights? Really? U got to be joking.. I cant believe people are this stupid. Should other fighters come out and fight FM the way FM fights? Boring? He needs to get out of boxing because nobody is paying for that ****.

    Ive seen much better fights for free on espn or fox. FM is anti-boxing. Its ****-style. PPV is and only should be for crowd pleasing fighters. U cant blame pac, he has plenty of them under his belt. FM should fight for free on espn for a while and if crowd is excited and PPV is warranted then that would be next phase. Outside of Maidana fight, who he forced it an exciting fight, i see no reason FM should be on PPV. On the other hand, MP could go out right now and command same revenue and an exciting fight, which has been his overall body of work. The only reason FM has good PPV numbers is because people want to see him lose and they expect (finally),a good fight! Surprise, same old borefest while the other fighter has to make the fight exciting. Yall guys gotta be on crazy pills. Get him outta here. He has almost ruined boxing

    Dear Floyd,

    You exposed our hero Manny as a bum. Now boxing is going to die. Why didn't you let him win more than two rounds? We can't do anything but cry. sob sob. boo hoo hoo. :|:|:|

    Sincerely,
    pac fans
