Floyd's unrivalled athleticism, is that how he was also able to succeed in various other sports?

    Don't forget that during that time, he was training for a fight against Hatton, so he wasn't 100% going into the competition.

    Secondly, I dare say he was robbed. He did great and shoulda actually gotten much farther.

    In all seriousness, in regards to this topic - He actually managed to hold his own against a top tier point guard in the NBA, Isiah Thomas.

    Floyd is a natural athlete.

    Had Floyd took up ball, I dare say he would be a top tier player. Probably better than Curry, James.

    He'd be the self proclaimed TBE in whatever sport he choose.

    When Floyd threads start getting moved to the classic section MVC is going to cry and the guys who post on the regular over there are going to flip sh*t.

    Floyd got lots of detractors but his skills level and dedication to the sport of boxing is second to none.

    Agree we do need comedians but MVC is boring. The rumor he's a Mod's Alt might well be true LOL
