    Black fighters are held to a higher standard than other fighters.

    JJM would KO Floyd, Manny is the greatest offensive fighter of all time, Antonio Marg is fast, De La Hoya beat Floyd Mayweather, and Sugar Ray Robinson didn't have technical flaws.

    bigtime9 had Floyd jr as a Top 3ATG after beating DLH.

    He had him as top 3 all time at 135, 140, and even 147. But he had 8 PHD's, so I guess he really was smart.

    That was Andy Raymond, he is a bloody git and just because RJJ beat Lacy he thought it was a prime Roy that Danny was facing :patsch

    Most of the dumb **** i have heard has been by drunken idiots in pubs that dont know anything about boxing

    "Mate, i reckon Mundine would have beaten a prime RJJ, close but i think he would take him"

    "Look at Katsidis, he punches like a wrecking ball, i reckon he should fight Floyd next"

    "Come on Danny, use ya muscles and knock the **** out!"

    and last but certainly not least, this is what a drunk guy said to me one arvo whilst watching Pac vs Oscar

    "mate if you think Pac is going to beat Oscar you better kiss your money good bye, you obviously know nothing about boxing. Oscar has won titles all the way to heavyweight and every 4 years he fights in the olympics. Way better than Pac and look how nice and lean he looks. Get prepared to lose your money mate. Learn the game first before you swing with the big boys"

    i shut him down and told him everything he had said was totally wrong, the filos up the back laughed and he tried to fight me before being asked to leave. I saw him later and waved my winnings in front of him :lol:

    According to Bailey Glencoffe Johnson at the age of 41 and with a career best win at supermiddle weight over Allan Green is near his prime. :patsch

    Mayweather "ducked" De la Hoya was pretty funny.

    Anyone with a brain knows that Floyd only got the first fight by basically fighting for free (25%?).

    And that he wasn't bothered about facing Oscar again for 2 reasons:

    1: The media and fans were calling him a "cherry picker" for even considering that bout again

    2: Oscar wanted him to fight for free a second time.

    You know, Manny fought for free against Oscar as he needed it. Nobody cared about him, in the grand scheme of things, until he had a big glamour fight.

    Wish fans would just debate facts

    As in, we had a scenario where fans were calling Floyd a "coward" for even considering fighting Oscar again. And now he's ducked him for not bothering with such a pointless bout

    To be fair, check out the punch stats

    Judah landed 100 shots in the entire bout!
