The thread starters "5 years ago" theory was a terrible example. 5 years ago Shane was struggling to come back from 4 losses.
Where's the proof that he's the most gifted fighter in the world? I know he makes it look pretty, believe me I know he's good. But Floyd has never fought a fighter close to as good as Shane was 5 years ago. Shane is an old ass man now, that's just a fact.
You're right - all have failed. Floyd was masterful in his victories over Freitas and Cassamayor at 130, his victory over Tszyu at 140, and his victories over Margo, Cotto, and Williams at 147. Oh, wait a minute, Floyd never took those fights. My bad.
EXCUSES EXCUSES...START EM NOW...CUZ WE ALL KNOW WHENEVER FLOYD BEATS SOMEONE AN EXCUSE WILL BE MADE..IDIOTS LIKE THIS ARE THE REASON FLOYD CAN NEVER DO ENOUGH :deal
Are you serious? He's an undefeated champion with six championships in five different divisions. Also, he is 33 year old. Many Floyd haters are writing this off as a fight between a young gun and an old fighter. There's a 4 year age difference!!! This is not a 27 year old Rocky Marciano against a 38 year old Joe Louis. This is a fight between two boxers of the same generation. One is a few year older than the other.
I think we both know that the only fighter you mentioned that would have given Floyd any problem at all was Williams. Margo? Cotton? Get the hell outta here! They've both had their arses handed to them by slower boxers with half the skills. Tszyu? Please. I like him, but he got out at the right time...after a glorified club fighter named Hatton kicked his butt.
MAN..CMON NOW..HE FIGHTING THE NEXT BEST THING AS FAR AS HIM TAKING A SHANE FIGHT..HE TRIED TO FIGHT MANNY BUT THE DRUG TESTING WAS AN ISSUE WITH MANY FOR WHATEVER REASON... U ACT LIKE FLOYD DIDN'T TRY TO FIGHT SHANE WHEN HE WAS YOUNGER..THEY COULD NEVER COME TO TERMS..I CAN SAY THE SAME **** AS U.."WELL MOSLEY WAITED TO FIGHT FLOYD TILL AFTER A LONG LAYOFF CUZ HE KNEW FLOYD WOULD NOT BE READY"...**** WORKS BOTH WAYS..DIFFERENCE IS I DONT DO THAT..I ACCEPT THAT MOSLEY HAS THE BEST STYLE TO BEAT FLOYD OUT OF ANY ACTIVE FIGHTER TODAY... TRY AGAIN MANhi:
YUP..JUST ANOTHER WAY TO HATE ON FLOYD AND IN THE END THE TS LOOKIN DUMBER AND DUMBER AS HE DONT KNOW WHAT HE TALKIN ABOUT:good
