    He won't fight guys that he could possibly struggle against so it rarely happens.

    It did happen, it was when Morales was managed by Floyd sr for a spell, both he & Floyd sparred for a bit... when Morales was asked by the commentator if it was true he kicked Mayweather`s ass, Erik smiled & said something like nah, we were cool, we showed each other respect & had a good spar.

    Ive never heard Erik came off 2nd best, Ive heard he won clearly & have also heard there was not a lot in it..... this was in 2001 or 02 when both were established p4pers & very much in their primes.

    he's talking about Judah unless you have a friend who doesn't know what the hell he's talking about

    Also Floyd had a tough fight with Emaneul Burton even though he had a shut out. Burton hit him more than he's used to and Floyd was showing stamina problems for the first time in that fight

    Then the Chavez fight was pretty tough also, but Floyd was struggling with the weight class and he did stop Chavez

    The 2nd Castillo fight was close for the first half of the fight were they split rds but then FMJ just outboxed him & pulled away for a decisive non-debateable pts win.

    he was injured in most of those fights. The Sosa fight was sloppy all around, but if you watched the whole thing carefully, you can tell his right hand wasn't right. He goes and starts to throw jab after jab after jab and triple left hooks and barely ever throw a right hand

    Also the Carlos Hernandez fights is self explanatory. Floyd's only knockdown in his career, because of his hand. Matter fact both of his hands got injured in that fight.

    Chavez was already mentioned about the weight and we all know about his injuries in the first Castillo fight

    Not Chavez, Emmanuel Augustus. He was experimenting with a new 'crowd pleasing' style, in which he didn't defend himself very much. Only fight I remember where after the fight, he somewhat looked like he'd been in one.

    He has said loads of times his hardest fight was Zab Judah.
