roger & floyd snr

Floyd was a pretty average pro in the greater scheme of things.

Roger was a decent world champ with a thunderous right hand but also a shaky chin. Roger in his prime may have had a claim to be at near the bottom of the top 10-15 P4P list but I wouldn't want to argue the case.

Neither is anywhere near ATGs.

 

Floyd Snr had that Mayweather defence, that his son took on to a different level, but got beat up by Sugar Ray Leonard, the speed was too much for him. Roger " The Black Mamba " was world champion. Floyd Snr got shot which ended his boxing career.

 

Floyd snr also got beaten by Starling. He was NABF level at best, getting shot or not getting shot.

 

Wasn't Leonard supposed to fight Hearns for peanuts around that time?

Dundee veto'd it and he fought Mayweather instead..... that's what I've heard anyway.

 

I edited my post, I meant Boxen but you snuck a post inbetwen them!!

 

I think so. That what what was said in "Four Kings" IIRC. Old Angie wasn't far wrong was he??
