    He's ****ing up his own LEGACY.

    Boxing is bigger than Floyd. Stars come and go thats the nature.
    Floyd's a star that should burn brighter, but doesnt, because he's taking the easy way out and not living up to the real HISTORY of great BOXERS.

    His legacy is already secure ... no fighter has accomplished what he has in under 10 yrs as a pro ...

    I can't recall any fighter doing what he's done in his first year and a 1/2 as a pro.

    Its all a matter of opinion ... he's a great boxer already ... nothing is easy in boxing ... anything can happen ... you run the risk of losing everytime you step into the ring.

    You act as if he's defending his title against Cosme Rivera -- he's fighting a legend in DLH and it might be a non title fight.

    He's fighting the best available ... Cotto isn't as proven as DLH ... even if he manages to take out Cotto (if they ever met) ... that still wouldn't get your attention and you still wouldn't respect him.

    To say that Cotto isn't as proven is actually a fair point. But he's also a fighter in the ascendency, unlike DLH. People here DO underestimate the DLH win, it, actually, was rather huge. At the same time though, I believe that unbeaten fighters should take tougher and tougher tests until they get defeated.

    There's nothing wrong with losing once.....

    An improving, hungry fighter that has already done a lot at welterweight might prove a tougher fight than a fighter that has already achieved as much as he's ever going to, yes.

    Son look what I wrote ... I never said that Cotto wasn't prove, I said that he wasn't as proven as DLH. (thats a fact)

    You just want to see him lose? He's been an undefeated champion for 10yrs. After 10 years and 18 championship fights you would think that he wouldve beat some top guys.

    Cotto is the only person you see that could possibly beat PBF and you want to rush the process ... but let me tell you ... Cotto isn't the man to do it. He's no different from the 39 others ... you better find another messiah, another hope because Cotto isn't the one.

    PBF will not lose a pro fight ... mark my words ...

    Yeah its ok to lose but PBF won't lose ... he's in his prime and a guy like Cotto isn't going to knock him off while he's in his prime. He hasn't shown any flaws or anything that would say that he could lose to a guy like Cotto.

    Why waste your time talking about a guy you don't respect .... why are you guys constantly talking about a guy you don't like?

    You must be a fan ... you watch his fights ... you might not cheer for him but you can't help but to mention his name.
