    8-4 is not beating the crap out of him. injured shoulder+he faded more. He ducked a 140 prime pacquiao

    8-4 at age 38, badly faded, one fight from retirement, and pretty much in first gear for the entire fight.

    Easy work. Eaaaaasssy work.

    He's the best since the 90s without question. I'm talking all time though. 3 of the 4 Kings, SRR, Charles, Greg, Armstrong, Langford, Benny Leonard and Ali. RJJ has a shout too.

    Floyd has a chance against Duran but both at their best he gets stopped. He loses on points comfortably to Leonard and gets knocked out within 4 against Hearns and Hagler.

    I am not sure this is right. Floyd avoided people ranked higher than Baldomir even when Baldomir was reigning. The focus of the question is why not fight at least 2-3 more top p4p fighters in their prime, or close to their prime, when you are ruling the sport?

    He fought ODLH and Ricky Hatton after Baldomir. Those were probably 2 of the biggest names during the time. He dragged one up im weight and went up to fight the other one.

    ROFLMAO Fluffy Floyd couldn't knock a blow fly off a cow patty Let alone beat the crap out of anybody. Why are you on FB backing up your hero. He still claims he's the greatest boxer of all time. Man they really give him a lambasting. He's just a clown to be laughed at today

    He won 10 rounds to 2 , not 8-4.

    Yes, he beat the everloving snot out of Pedquiao.

    Everyone knows that, all the aficionados saw it. Manny was so scared of Floyd's power and never threw much.
