    Floyd undeniably had multiple closed fights and were not that convincing with the likes of Pac, Maidana, Cotto to name a few. Now put the same fight his opponents backyard and I doubt if he gets the win.

    Mayweather actually called out Mosley back then and was ready to move up two weight divisions to fight him but was turned down.

    Mosley has openly admitted that he didn't want to fight Mayweather earlier in the careers same with cotto he didn't want to fight Mayweather either both have admitted it the whole Floyd's a ducker is a bit exaggerated

    1: Floyd didn't have anything either of them wanted when he was young "Pretty Boy".

    2: Also, how could Floyd duck Oscar? Oscar picked Floyd. Floyd was an Oscar cherry pick.

    3: As for Shane, Shane was coming off the destruction of somebody Floyd was supposedly afraid of when they fought. And if you wanna play the "prime" game, WW Floyd was not prime Floyd either. They were all outside of their best weight classes (although Oscar was still an animal at the weight).

    Positions like this need to be put to bed.
