    The Prince of course.

    Fliyd is not entertaining. He could probably be, but far too much Hollywood around his entire carreer. In other words, most of his carreer path and legacy is scripted. Sure, they took a good fighter to begin with. They tried the same with Jermain Taylor and he wasn't good enough despite the careful matching, help with decisions and so on. So obviosuly Floyd is good, but noone really knows how good - and we probably never will.

    Floyd acts like an idiot and runs his mouth. Some people find that entertaining. Not me.

    Nasem's ribbing was somehow easier to take than Floyd's...PBF's mouth running comes across as annoying, while Naz's was more like..."oh, that silly foreigner!"

    I agree I can tolerate Naz's trash talk because maybe it was funny. Floyds looks like he's trying to hard.

    Naz and Haye are 2 of the best entertainers that actually know how to entertain people in and out of the ring. Floyd is a defensive master and he's also a master of making himself look stupid when he's not fighting. At least be funny or original not be the gangsta he thinks he is. He needs to find out who he really is.

    Floyd forces himself to be a trash talker. He was a humble fighter earlier on in his career. Naz on the other hand was born to talk ****, he comes across as a lot more natural at it and thus more entertaining. The time he ripped into Kevin Kelley and told him he'd get him a job working for HBO putting up Prince Naseem posters after he knocks him out was classic Naz. On the other hand you have Floyd who rambles on about being a gorilla and a big dog but comes across as looking like a fool as he's what.. 5'8 and walks around at about 155-160.

    Naz was funnily arrogant. Many disliked him.

    Floyd comes off as an arrogant cry-baby.

    Both arrogant, but Floyd in an annoyingly embarrasing way.

    Naz for sure. He could have been great, but his ego got in the way. He could've rebounded to beat Barrera, but he wasn't man-enough. Naz had legit "one punch KO power".
