The only credit was beating a undefeated ricky faton not at his preferred weight. Class. He fought jmm 2 weight classes and didnt make weight. Fought a blood drained non-balco mosley and almost got ko, while oscar, marg, cotto fought a younger, prime, and epo, the clear, balco mosley and taking his shots well. Pac will be fighting balco mosley. Corales didnt throw 2 jabs, while be the bigger man and not atg. So due to hatton he barely beats chavez jr as far as resumes go. Floyd, great talent poor resume.
Wow! Did you really compare Chavez jr. to Floyd Mayweather jr???? Maybe I should compare Pacman to ****** Timberlake since they both sing
It's funny how Mosley is blood drained, yet Floyd is not. They took the same tests. atsch Also why are all these none Floyd fans so obsessed with creating threads about him. If you don't like or respect the guy for whatever reason, it costs you nothing to pay him no mind. :good
H.O.F's that Floyd has fought. Genaro Hernandez, Jose Luis Castillo, Emanuuel Augustus, Diego Corrales, JMM, Shane Mosely, ODLH. Now that's a little more than 3 H.O.F's!
Very good assesment my man. I'm a true believer that Emanuel Augustus is a H.O.F. This is based on his journeyman approach to the sport as he fought on a very high skill level with little or no resources or corner for that matter. Also, his nomadic career paralells that of a modern day Archie Moore. Take any fight, anywhere, anytime.
As much as I love Augustus, he's NOT going to the HOF without a ticket he paid for. Don't think JLC is making it either. Corrales is on the cusp as well. As fun and exciting as they were, they just didn't do enough.
Any top fighter could remain undefeated as long as he cherry picks his opponents and fight once in a while like Floyd does.
Not really a fair comparison but I see where your going. Floyd for what it's worth has a stellar career and a very good legacy. It could have been a lot more but Floyd is floyd.
Nearly all fighters cherry pick once the get to the top position. Oscar cherry picked, Floyd cherry picked and yes, Pacquiao cherry picks as well. He fought at that same weight several times after he fought Mayweather. He fought within 5-6 pounds of that weight his entire career.
Jr tested positive for drugs in one of his fights and he's a prodigy of the wild card gym ,now ya'll can end thread. Think about that?
