    Corrales-Weight drained and a week later due to be sentenced for wife beating. Head was not in the game

    Gatti-Superstar yes, good fighter at the time, no.

    Ndou an Elite fighter? No.

    Hatton-Fought him at 147 where he had already been shown up by a lesser fighter than Floyd as too short (his frame doesn't carry that weight well) and out of his depth....so of course Floyd wanted to face him, easy nights work.

    We all know the controversy over the 1st Castillo fight but Floyd wasn't exactly destroyed or beaten comprehensively so I do not list that as a 'robbery', but you could make the argument that he struggled with Castillo and needed two attempts to beat him convincingly.

    Am I a hater? Are you a nuthugger?

    I'm realistic. Floyd would smash Berto to bits, beat Margoarito hands down (hand wraps or no hand wraps) and win every round, but Mosley and Cotto? They're not one dimensional, are still fighting at a high standard, fast,. powerful, sturdy.

    If Floyd beats one of them I'd become a believer.

    Or Paul Williams at either 147 or 154, that would be the opponent to cemetn his greatness, but he knows Williams would annihilate him. How would he counter over that reach, take his power or hurt him????

    Yes I would.

    And doesn't Hatton being an easy nights work mean it takes away from Floyd's victory?

    What? Floyd didn't fight him at 147. You said Floyd moved up but also said he fought him at 147?

    Mae your mind up. It was at JMW, 154, and Floyd weighed 151.

    **** what kind of excuse is that, thats a sorry excuse it doesnt count and floyd doesn't have anything to do with it. You're degrading arguably floyd's best win at his career against a young prime undefeated chico who was favored to beat floyd. Would you read that highlighted post of yours again please! Everyone here who would read that **** knows its ****ing bull****!!

    Hatton was an undefeated champ, he took his 0 just like how calzaghe took lacy and kessler's 0 and you put an excuse for that. Floyd was even a former 130 lber, hatton was a regular 140lber all his life, and floyd at 147 was a small guy himself so this is what i called bull**** #2 coming from you:hi:

    i'm glad that you don't see that fight as a robbery, floyd struggled with the fight as it is his first ****ing fight at 135, he didn't take a tune up but he went straight for the champ himself. He struggled but he clearly won that fight, and so what if floyd needed 2 attempts? Its fighters like floyd who are ATGs who doesn't need to make trilogies! You know why? Because he beats them convincingly! thats why:deal

    floyd offered to fight cotto and mosley(offered twice) before but they don't want any piece of floyd, you can go search about it if you want because its a fact.

    Paul williams is a big 147, and its proven by looking at his career now that he can't make weight anymore. He's a regular middleweight which is too big for floyd. Do you really need to mention all this big guys floyd need to fight, i guess you should mention pavlik or bhop also:rofl

    DLH was rank no.1 at 154 that time and he was WBC champ, floyd again move up in weight to fight a bigger guy. And win like he always does:deal

    Your avatar and name give you away as a nuthugger, I have tried to be impartial, I make the excuses to show you that Floyd is not infallible, he is anotehr Ray Leonard who picked fights at the right time against the right fighters instead of taking on huge challenges, except Floyd doesn't have a Hearns/Duran/Hagler-esque challenge on his resume.

    Even if he lost it would make him a better fighter in my eyes.

    its because the talent pool of todays boxers are not like what it used to be was back in the days. The reason why so many other fans are not contented at all with floyd is that he doesn't have that hearns/duran/hagler is not his fault.

    Why do you think most boxers of today cotto,pac,jmm for example when pit against these fantasy match ups always tend to lose? Floyd doesn't have that kind of challenge but its not his fault, he is in there with those other greats.

    Floyd UD.

    I think Quateys jab gives Mayweather problems for a few rounds until Mayweather adapts.
