    How will Floyd be remembered? As one of the greats, or one of the biggest cowards boxing has witnessed?

    Somewhere in the middle? Or both?

    Well, I refuse to call any pro fighter a "coward", but Floyd deserves a shitload of criticism if he can't come to an agreement to fight Pacquiao.

    **** or get off the pot.

    Ducking Pac plus sucker punching 3 fighters in 9 fights is pretty bad

    Yea but Floyd is becoming a known sucker puncher considering he's done that to 3 out of 9 opponents. That's almost a 40% sucker punch rate.

    Nobody is talking about the other 2 fights. People dont remeber that Gatti didnt defend himself, that just remember he got beat down BAD!! People dont remember that **** in the Mosley fight only that he finally got caught with a good punch and cameback and won every round. People only remeber this punch because it happened 2 days ago and it ended with a KO.

    He will never been considered a sucker puncher because he isnt

    Great fighter, for obvious reasons. The man is a master of his craft.

    without Manny Pac on his resume he will be seen as a great fighter who never reached his full potential
