    Can Berto do a Buster Douglas like he did vs Mike Tyson who was on 38-0, due to Floyd being complacent?

    floyd wont be anything like tyson in training. always trains like an animal and its his LAST FIGHT. he will just keep telling himself "ONE MORE TIME AND THATS IT!".

    id like to see how the odds are for a berto win compared to a douglas ?

    wasnt douglas paying like 35 bucks for a flat win

    Can't compare Floyd to Tyson. If Tyson had half the discipline of Mayweather, he would have never lost to Buster. Heard the guy was doing lines, getting drunk, and banging hookers the week of the fight. Taking it serious.....

    Tyson could have just banged hookers and I would have forgiven it. But at least live a clean life for the fight: train, eat right and no drugs/alcohol.

    No since that there are 2 criterias for Floyd when comes the time to choose an opponent:
    1-He must be past his prime
    2-He must have no chance to beat him

    When Floyd is bull****ting about some guys that doesn't deserve a fight with him, Wtf Berto did to deserve tha fight if that is true? Mr.contradiction at it again and again. He is insulting. Please retire.

    Douglas was a 45-1 underdog. Berto is going in like a Golovkin opponent, 100-1 or more.

    at least Floyd fights guys that we've heard of unlike GGG and Pacquaio who should both be ashamed of themselves....

    Exactly. Had Tyson fought in the age of Social Media it would have been a significantly less upset. Back then stories leaked out but nothing like today. Tyson was a HW Adrien Broner. Floyd is the BEST at fight preparation. No contest.

    That is so true its not even funny. If Floyd fights Berto, I will not buy that PPV. It will be beyond the biggest joke of a fight I've ever seen p4p#1 guy take let alone someone who claims to be the best ever. I will not have any part of that one. Floyd needs to fight GGG, he needs to finally take on a fight he's not the glaring favorite to win. Great fighters search for great fights, not afraid of challenges. floyd is far from great though, it's so obvious. ANd even if he lost to GGG i would give him mad respect for being a man finally and truly testing himself.

    Floyd discipline is on another level from Tyson, for something like that to happen.

    Indeed. He is not made with the same set of ***** than B-Hop. Great challenges against fighters that most of the guys would duck. Being able to win or lose some of these fight makes you a legend IMO. Floyd reivented the cherry picking process.

    Here we go...another moron that feels cornered when there's a critic about Floyd. When these morons are feeling cornered, they throw out Pacquiao's name out of context and now they use GGG name:patsch

    I'm repeating, we're talking about Floyd. Your hero is fighting big names out of their prime to make sure guys like you finds it exceptionnal, which worked pretty well in your case.
