a) I will give you that one. He's a career MW. But, he was scheduled to fight Chavez at SMW. So, it's clear he is just too big for a 148 lb Floyd to be in the ring with. What's he gonna hydrate up to, 175? Too much of a weight advantage. But, Ward is only 1 class up. ;-) Did I get the math right this time? b) I am aware the fight was controversial. There were many who saw it for Floyd too. Most importantly the judges. c) Margarito never really put himself in a position for a fight. Williams...most people stayed away from (Berto, Shane, Cotto, Floyd and Pacquiao too). Margarito lost to him, as I recall. Pacquiao fought Clottey instead because he did not want to take a test, and probably did not really want the fight. d) I have seen the fight 2x. Maidana, won 4 rds clearly on my card. There could have been an argument for 1 more close one. But, I saw that in the other 7-8 rds Floyd was in control for most of the round and dished out the cleaner, harder shots. The commentary was actually quite neutral. But, I don't need that to score the fight.

Well when you come back to reality the OFFICIAL record says 46-0... Enjoy your stay in la-la land though...

GGG has never fought one fight in his career at 154 lbs....or at 168 lbs... his manager needs to STFU and stop making him look like a fool by not backing up his boast.
BTW, NOBODY within the same general weight would have an easy fight with Floyd, he ain't 46 and 0 for a reason; (and yes, he is undefeated, he beat Castillo and Maidana easily, DLH was his only close fight.) I think GGG is a very good top 10 fighter and would beat Floyd. With a 25 lb. weight advantage, he should, But then Marco Huck would beat the dog crap out of GGG and he's not even in the same ballpark in ability. There's a good reason they made weight classes.
any way you spin it, no pac fight burns Floyd and people won't forget that it burns pac as well, but Floyd will get more flack for not doing his part to make that fight because he's always talked himself up as the greatest
I had it a draw and that's against maidana who's not even the 4th best at 147 :deal Imagine what Thurman would do to Maidana
