    That's cool.. All of that still don't mean much when you're talking about a guy ten years apart.. Broner was expected to beat Maidana too.. Maybe it's us as fans that needs to stop expecting so much from these guys then when they don't do what we expect, they're all of a sudden overrated or not as good as they are.. You obviously saw the difference between the Floyd that fought Canelo vs the Floyd that fought Maidana.. It was like 2 different guys.. What does that tell you?

    PBF was never banned and suspended from the sport like Margo was. He never tested positive its all speculation.

    I know he paid that money but neither was Mosley and he admitted it

    This was obvious. He faked retirement too to avoid him and other guys.

    Mayweather put his guard up and walked forward and it freaked Connor out

    Because Margatito was going to use his reach?

    He was the smaller guy.
    Boxing separates fighters by weight, not reach.

    Many of Mayweathers biggest wins were against guys who were 10 or more pounds heavier than him in the ring.

    We don't really know that. Floyd refused to step on the scales on fight night for many fights. One thing is for sure—Floyd's a lot bigger than people think he is. In the lead up to the Pacquiao fight, Floyd said that Pacquiao was surprised by his size and Floyd said that he was a big welterweight. Floyd tossed Mosley, a big welterweight, around like a rag doll, out muscling him. Floyd also looked only slightly smaller than Canelo.

    He stepped on the scales on fight night plenty.

    Against Ortiz, he weighed 150, Ortiz weighed 164.

    Against Judah, he weighed 146, Judah weighed 150.

    Against Baldomir, he weighed 149, baldomir weighed 162.

    Against Mitchell, he weighed 148, Mitchell weighed 155.

    Against Sosa, he weighed 140, Sosa weighed 145.

    Against Corrales, he weighed 136, Corrales weighed 146

    Against Castillo, he weighed 138 1/2, Castillo weighed 147 1/2

    Against Bruseles, he weighed 142, Bruseles weighed 150.

    Against Juuko, he weighed 136, Juuko weighed 140.

    But yeah, Im sure he weighed 170 in the ring against Canelo....

    I can’t think of a Boxer as high profile as Floyd who matched him for cowardice.

    Hasn’t got any sack at all.

    No fighter who gets into the ring is a coward. A coward couldn't shut out a guy like Canelo, stop trolling.
