    Man, its funny as hell to see some of these clowns make themselves look like a damn fool! Just to show his history on boxing....That clowned just must dont know that Billy Graham was the one who turned down the fight..I guess that one slipped his mind.:lol::lol:

    You can make an argument for 147, yes! But at 140 you have no argument!

    I always thought that De La Hoya's rise was definitely cherry picking...but then he sure did fight the best competition that was out there.... but early on I couldnt stand the fights he picked///

    Come on man...Its not Floyd fault that the Hatton fight didnt go down...Remember Billy Graham made it publicly known that Hatton wasnt ready for Floyd at 140 around that time.

    You can blame the networks for Tszyu\Mayweather for not happening...Tszyu was a showtime fighter and Floyd was fighting on HBO.

    THEY NEVER COULD MAKE THE FIGHT WITH KOSTA..KOSTA WAS TIED TO SHOWTIME AND FLOYD TO HBO.....

    I'll say it's beyond comparison.

    RJJ is cherry picking now . . . because he is old and faded . . . PBF is on the top of his game . . . that's the difference.

    Chavez jr., Pavlik (since he won the straps), Chad Dawson (by fighting Tarver instead of Johnson who gave him hell)

    Neither of them are cherrypickers, but Floyd comes closer to fitting that description than Roy does. Floyd's opposition 140-147 is pretty poor, when you consider Tszyu, Mosley, Williams, Cotto and Margarito were all there to be fought. Roy's resume has been criticized, but amongst the dross there is a solid succession of very good fighters stretching from Hopkins through to Ruiz.

    Fact: Floyd beat Castillo by a narrow margin...He then rematches Castillo and beat him more convincingly...Show proof of were Castillo beat Floyd because the record books state other wise!:good
