    Dela hoya cherrypicked a 130 pound pacquiao. People conveniently forget this just because it backfired.

    I don't see anyone, not even Pacquiao, beating Floyd.

    That list of who you assumed he has "ducked" in his career is laughable. Most of those guys weren't even available for him to fight at the lighter weights such as Barrera or morales as those 2 fought in the lighter weight classes.

    And in all seriousness, do you think guys like morales or Barrera, while both HOF fighters, would've posed any threat to Floyd at 130 lbs?.

    His greatest performances imo were against Diego corrales at 130 and gatti at 140. At his best, he was one of the most complete fighters I ever saw when factoring in offense, defense and ring generalship.

    I think Floyd is a top 3 ATG at 130.

    I literally was thinking of this fight yesterday!

    I say vs Chavez was his most action packed fight. His best fight was against Chico, hands down!

    This thread immediately became s h i t the moment you said he ducked Barrera and Morales. Even the biggest Floyd hater in this for has never claimed that. What a dumbass.

    CST80 is so transparent. You can barely get past the first sentence without giving away what's to follow

    out of sheer curiosity (and more so really to put you into the "troll" group or the "uneducated boxing fan" group) how long have you followed floyds career?
