    I'm sure some of the criticism is out of jealousy. However, I think he is rightly criticized on a number of things.

    Floyd's criticism of Manny Pacquiao spawns from jealousy.

    I absolutely agree with this.

    Who ever cared about which endorsement deals pac had?
    Who ever complained about pac giving morales fights?

    I have been told personally by almost every person who has watched that he is boring.

    Most of the people that don't appreciate floyd's boxing style are probably mma fans, that just want to see brutality....I actually enjoy watching his fights, he out-thinlks his opponents time and time again....

    I agree.

    Now what does that have to do with criticism over him being boring my so many people?

    The people who appreciate pure boxing is extremely low.

    Look at lewis popularity compared to tyson.
    DLH vs Pernell Whitaker

    I think the hardcore boxing fans like the pure boxer....but they also like the boxer who at times will go life and death if need be....floyd has never shown that....even though I think he can.....

    Right, but he gets criticized for being boring by a lot of people.

    I don't think he is boring, I just acknowledge that most people would rather watch Pacquiao wallop Floyd, than Floyd outbox Manny.

    Of course....KO's put the asses in the seats, and Manny is a power puncher.....

    It would be posterized to see manny's corpse on the canvas with floyd looking over....:lol:

    People could see pacquio KO'ing floyd, but at this stage, to invision Floyd KO'ing Manny is a little far-fetched....I don't think so....Floyd's power is underrated and sneaky...I still pick Mayweather by WIDE UD if they ever fight...I'm still saying mosley is a harder fight for floyd...

    He may have had an incident with a woman, but he didn't try to publicize it, we don't know the details, and to my knowledge, he doesn't preach that abuse is something that is alright.

    I don't think that his run in with the law has anything to do with the things that come out of his mouth.

    It was unfortunate, yes, but I'm sure he regrets it. That is something that his publicity has nothing to do with though, or if it does, he is too sensitive.

    Who here doesn't think the people that criticize the number of bodyguards a man has is bubbling with envy?
