    This is the best post that I’ve ever seen you make.

    And I really respect your honesty.

    I really wasn’t expecting this reply.

    Brilliant.

    You have my respect for sure.

    I’ll also try and take these points onboard myself.

    Let’s all try and do this.

    Yes, we’re all huge fans of the sport, and doing this will make for a better debate.

    So let’s all try and debate in a more objective and civil manner.

    Thanks for this.

    Why?

    Due to knowledge?

    Or due to emotional bias etc?

    Don't know. I have been enjoying reading some of the back and forth debate though.

    You do this weird thing where you write whole sentences and then space a complete line before the next sentence. It’s because you think you’re presenting bulletproof statements that don’t need to be supported with evidence in the form of paragraphs.

    1. You haven’t got the capacity to understand the style. You don’t know the name of it, or why it’s done.

    2. Almost all of my opinions are backed by logical examples.
    And that is in every thread that I partake.

    3. I offer logical breakdowns with numerous facts to support my arguments.

    4. You write in a completely disingenuous way, where you deliberately omit vital information in order to support your agenda.

    5. You use deflection tactics, like this very post above. You answer questions with questions. You are completely incapable of having an objective debate. So the irony of you questioning my style of writing, is simply staggering.

    Are you suggesting he is a sophist?

    No, he's a contrarian troll with some passive aggressive tendencies. Ironic because he likes to question the integrity and manhood of other posters but lacks in both and honesty.

    Even if you politely, rationally point out issues in his reasoning or contradictions in how he applies his standards, he can quickly become snarky or shifts the topic to something else.

    Because Floyd chose no risk and money over greatness. That's all on him.

    I’d love to know whether he was a troll or not.

    Flords Cherry picking didn't start until late in his career when he was past his prime and above his best weight so one wouldn't think it would make much difference legacy wise

    I think he was always going to lose but if he fought Manny earlier and won probably would have been closer.

    No idea how one cherry picks Shane, Canelo, Cotto, and Pacquiao when they’re reigning champions.

    Most people would rank Ali between 1-5, while Floyd 15-30 in All time list.
