Floyd rarely fought anyone that was young and hungry

this has always been my knock on Floyd is the Khan fight never happened.. the one guy who had the skill set to counter Floyd's strengths

 

And the money was definitely there. Much bigger payday than Berto/Guerrero/Maidana.

 

No sir I remember him calling out the Cuban , SSM, Popó and the Prince and they didn’t say sh;t . You haters can’t have it both ways , let’s not forget he chased the golden boy all the way up to 154.

 

Lol you mean Amir Khan hahahhahaha? Serious ?

 

Also don’t forget Diego Corrales, Jesus Chavez, Hatton, Canelo, Castillo to name a few.

 

Yes. Horrible match up for Floyd. Khan has glass chin, true, but Floyd doesn’t have the knockout power.

Khan was keep calling him out, the money was there, but Mayweather didn’t want any part of it.

 

I’m not a fan of floyd , but khan lacks ring IQ to outbox floyd

 

Floyd didn't want no smoke from Margarito or prime Pac.

FACT!!!

 

I concur.

 

Khans height reach n speed would of caused issues, good fight to duck. He still wins IMO.

 

Right, because Fluid fights everyone who calls him out. He doesn't disappear, er um retire when it suits him.

 

Did you not just see Vargas put Khan down

 

I see there is no need to continue this conversation, the term is YDKSAB, good day.

 

He fought either old or guys he could beat no problem. There was a matchup with Hearns which was mentioned. Hearns to Floyd is almost like Hearns to Qawi. That probably would not be a good matchup for Hearns. Some matchups are not great. Floyd's problem is either fighting old or guys like Guerrero or Ortiz. All beatable.

 

I would like to see examples of guys in the last 20 years that did face a lot of fighters who were "young and hungry" and who those guys are, so we can stack up the comparable to see if the thread starters' claim is valid.
