    No, Floyd was ducking the most dangerous opponents, GGG is being ducked. Huge difference my friend.

    I cant stand FlIVd but i dont use a double standard with anyone. I call it how i see it and dont get blinded by my dislike of the man but to use a line from the great coach Bill Parcells "you are what your record says you are". Hes undefeated. Our opinion on fights he shouldve lost on the scorecard is nothing but that, opinion and you know what they say about opinions. That being said his record only shows hes undefeated but cant really tell you the level of his greatness as that is an entirely different discussion.

    I think the Oscar fight is the ultimate referendum on FlIVds "greatness" and where he stands all time. He had a close fight while in his prime with a shot fighter who had been dealing with drug and alcohol issues plus he had 1 fight in 3 years before the flIVd fight. If he was so great he shouldve absolutely clowned Oscar and won that fight easily. What do you think happens if he stepped in against a 28 year old prime oscar? Floyd problably gets knocked out. That fight tells me all i need to know on FlIVds "all time greatness" and its not what people think it is. i have yet to here a valid counter argument to my point.

    49-1, 48-1-1 or 48-2, the only matches that could be scored against him are the Castillo match, which he lost definitively and the first Maidana match.

    Mayweather should have been disqualified for what his uncle did in the Judah fight, that is no question.
    And the Pacquiao fight should have been a no contest, since he was using illegal IVs and only got a fake TUE from USADA when USADA didn't even have the right to issue a TUE for a boxer in Nevada. Plus he should have been suspended for that just like BJ Penn was suspended by USADA for IV use.

    The official records have Floyd as 50-0 and I wanted Floyd to retire on top.
    Floyd has been one of my favourite boxers, has taken risks that I dont think many would have taken but there were a couple of fights where I felt he may not have got the decision.

    I felt in his fight with Oscar, Floyd was outworked early on and although not getting caught too much and doing the cleaner work but probably not enough of it and let alot of rounds slip by before coming back into it.
    I wouldnt have been shocked had Oscar got that decision

    The first Maidana fight I thought could have been a loss for Floyd.
