    Who were some fighters who were so good that they made their opponents look ordinary?

    I say Roy Jones and Pernell Whitaker.

    TBE embarrassed Excusequiao and made him look like a novice. Keep in mind, Excusequiao is a "supposed" ATG, was #2 P4P, 8 division titles, FOTD.

    TBE v Mosley
    TBE v Canelo

    Eubank comes to mind (Sr, obviously). The likes of Benn, Watson, Malinga, Essett, Thornton, Holmes, Rocchigiani and Collins (and Calzaghe, round three) in the opening and early rounds, all excellent fighters made to punch air and over-reach or hyperextend their elbows a lot!

    Against others they look true quality.

    floyd is older than manny :patsch


    jeez, first you guve manny a 10-8 round for nothing, then you say tyson is overrated, now you say **** like this. :patsch

    you are in the running for worst poster in this site. Even the posters who agree with you about Manny think everything else you post is dumb AF.

    Some of you are morons.

    Manny is much, much smaller than Floyd.

    People were making this a serious fight, but if anyone knew boxing, knew that Floyd was going to win.

    Are you one of those people that say Floyd is too small to fight GGG?

    Fact is GGG is 2 1/2 inches taller than Floyd (Same advantage Floyd had against Pac, and the same weight difference that they started their career at).
