    I know that Pac probably wasn't scared to rematch, but doubt enters the mind, and trainers either look the other way, or throw their charge back into the flames of defeat. PAc's people chose not to throw him back in those rematches for a reason.

    Anyway, I was never champ. I'm just another white guy like Neo in the Matrix. Now with that said, who you fight is who you fight. Don't compare ordinary guys to Gold medal olympians because Olympians don't always become great pros...

    If you can take your opponents out with pawns then why use your more valuable pieces? Floyd doesn't need to risk himself like a Cotto,or a Pacquiao or a Margarito. He uses his superior skills and intelligence. Everything you mentioned is opinionated and not accurate at all. If you think Floyds offense is "never all that" you should look at his opponents stats and tell me what happened to them. And while youre at it try actually watching some of Floyds fights.

    I'm going to warn you right now. When a beginner watches Floyd your head is going to hurt alittle because he's a more cerebral fighter so his fights are more technical and more strategic. Much so like chess. It's a little different than what your short attention span is probably use to.:good

    exactly...you know why, it takes away his advatage....i never question floyd's skills but he's a defensive fighter,his style aint exciting... so sayin he never showed his true potential is bull crap......, iif thats the case, he shlou've never been in a close fights....

    You serious? Youre another ****ing idiot. You first post was bashing Floyds skill. But here you claim you didn't. Oh and of course if you take more risk its going to take away your advantage. The funny thing is Floyd's a better inside fighter than most in the game. Youre really a ******ed poster who's just a hater trying to sound intelligent. Much like youre ******ed first thread your not doing so good here at ESB.

    In terms of what? Great athletes adapt when one aspect of their game starts to fade. Floyd adapts each time. We've probably seen the fastest version of Floyd, but not the smartest. When Michael Jordan retired the first time he was still the best player although not the best athlete like the younger version was.

    OK little child. Lets go over what you said. Floyd isn't an offensive minded fighter.Lie.He doesn't have killer instinct.Lie. He's a "minimal puncher" who out lands his opposition.Paradox.He's not a combo puncher.Lie. Little boy youre nothing but a hater. Stick to your ******ed threads "whoever Floyd beat everyone else did it better". You know where you list everyone of Floyds common shared opponents but JMM and with good reason. Stop wasting my time.

    If Fraud could only bring his best outside of the ring inside the ring, that is the best.

    Did Harris had bruising, because Mosley sure looked untouched after receiving so many punches.

    To bad we couldn't say the same for Pacquiao when he fought Clottey. For a guy who only got hit 20 times that fight he sure was busted up. Playing ***** vs ******* can be fun. BTW you ever post like an adult and not a immature child. I truly apologize if youre like 10 years old.:smoke
