    Pretty boy is too bad ass...

    Sugar was one of the highest accolades. now Pretty boy is on par,

    Pretty boy means your a defensive genius, and your face remains pretty cah no one hits it. Genius. and its a oxymoron, in a brutal sport like boxing, it shows the old school gentleman vibe of the past. You can be pretty and box!!:aaaaa::aaaaa:

    Pretty Boy Floyd was the original, and he should have kept it that way. But 'money' is more known especially by the casuals.

    Definitely pretty boy Floyd. It was a moniker that was anointed to him in his amateur days of hitting guys and rarely getting hit himself. And TBH, when he was referred to by that nickname between 130-140 lbs, that was the most entertaining version of him.

    It's amazing to hear some of these commentators ***** about him these days when they use to rave about his offensive abilities at the lighter weights. Merchant used to consistently compare to him to Ray Leonard, referring to him as an offensive virtuoso time and time again. It's like they forgot who he was for the first decade of his career before moving up to his 4th and 5th weight divisions right before he turned 30 with about 11 years of pro experience under his belt. By the time he was "Money", he was already past his prime.
