    James recently did an interview with the folks over where the "hype Fights" and gave Floyd some much deserved props for taking on Shane and how he handled the situation. It was a masterful performance to say the least and I think if James is saying something like this others have got to listen. James doesn't hand out many compliments and he's a straight shooter who speaks what is on his mind. I think he said something like Floyd did MI and the "D" proud! I agree..... thoughts?

    You have to give Floyd props even if you are a hater like me. The guy was phenom that night. It isn't his fault Mosley is old.

    I mean.....I know many don't want to give the man his just dues but lets be real. He's incredible at what he does and SHane ain't no joke. Sure he wasn't prime but like Nard...he's operating at a high level.

    Manny went throught he same **** when he beat DLH b/c of how he won and dominated against a future Hall of famer and ATG people had a hard time accepting it....in turn they came up with excuses to why the witnessed what they did and try to rationalize it with excuses.

    Toney always liked Floyd it's no surprise he's giving him props. I'd be more happy if he just left fighting alone.

    :huh Nah...not really. Toney acknowledge his talent and skills but has been really harsh on Floyd. ANd he had some valid reasoning behind his criticism. Toney was harsh on Floyd for the way he faught JMM......how he went about accusing PAC and demanding blood tests...and he even said he'd favor PAC to beat Floyd. James doens't give out props to ANYONE except himself.

    It's Floyd's best career win and Toney rightfully recognizes it.

    Yes. What a lot trouble it was for me to click on this thread and make a sentence posting. My finger moved 4 inches and it took me all of 3 seconds. :roll:

    Take your own advice, sugar. Interesting? NO. Your thread sucks, chuckie.
