    This is the denial floyd nut huggers live with every day.

    fact is all of floyds best wins are against past their best opponents when it SUITED floyd, hell he even delayed and delayed the hatton fight until hatton started to look on the decline and looked terrible vs collazo.

    Floyd "were not fighting to see who the best is"

    :deal:deal:deal

    That is it right there...

    Floyd fought to keep his undefeated record, while most ATG fighters fought to prove they were contemporaries.

    If Floyd would have fought to see who was the best he would have fought Prime Cotto, Prime Pacquiao, Paul Williams, Margarito, Hatton at 140, JMM at 140 or 144 :roll:, Prime Shane Mosley etc....

    When you are the best the challengers are supposed to meet your weight. Why in the hell would the p4p number 1 fighter in the world move down to fight a ricky hatton

    That's funny. Strange oscar was Floyd's boss not too long ago. Imagine being richer than your boss.:roll:

    Floyd owned Oscar in the ring? wtf fight were you watching. Oh ya, you're completely delusional and actually believe Floyd puts on great fights and fights the best out there! And think Floyd's IVs were actually to re-hydrate, when he was only 2lbs above his fighting weight 30 days before the fight And then he destroyed Pac! somehow running away and landing pillow punches that inflict ZERO damage on anyone, except of course when he landed that totally legit 2 piece on Ortiz when Ortiz was trying to apologize. And man, that fight with Berto, what an epic performance vs an ATG opponent! berto was so darn good he lost 3 of his last 4 fights previously! I wasn't sure if Floyd had the ballz, but geez, he really manned up and selected the absolute best opponent possible to shut the door on an amazing career. :lol::lol::lol:

    Oscar is a dummy!!!
    Everyone knows Floyd can't read.
    Not to mention he has so much money that he can't trust anyone around him. So even if his kids read it, they may be trying to increase their inheritance by making Daddy fight again.

    I agree with Oscar about Floyd, but if he really meant those sentiments he'd put Canelo in with Golovkin and let the chips fall where they may. He did that with his own career; so what's changed?

    Only to someone can draw conclusions with zero tangible evidence. If you say Floyd cheated that anyone can say anyone else cheated because there is zero proof. He's never even been accused of taking anything specific just the broad term "ped"

    If his punches really had no power these guys wouldn't have such a problem walking through them and finding Floyd's chin from time to time. Just accept the fact that he was a great fighter who won a lot of fights and move on

    Ps if you really are defending victor ortiz the fool who tried to go for a 3rd apology hug after the ref brought them to the center of the ring then just wow. The guy tried to ram Floyd's nose into his skull with his head he got what he deserved and no legitimate boxing person had a problem with it just Larry merchant who had ortiz' ***** in his mouth at the time and made a fool of himself saying it was just a natural reflex from Ortiz.

    :patsch

    The fight was scheduled for 144... Mayweather didn't even bother to make weight. That is cheating. GTFO, ignorant fanboys are not taken serious.

    Oscar just sounds so bitter, Mayweather beat him, out earned him, retired unbeaten, holds boxing records that might never be beaten and recently beat every fighter Oscar gave the famous "blueprint" to beat Floyd and Oscar just can't accept it.

    Oscar's point about Mayweather being boring is a little bit rich considering Oscar bangs on about the great Hopkins, his good friend, Hopkins beat Oscar so he has to be great when Oscar opens his mouth and talks about him. Hopkins has made me snore quite a few times. According to Oscar that is boxing genius, Oscar just can't be consistent.

    The points about Pacquiao, yes it was a boring fight, yes it should have happened 5 maybe 6 years earlier, well Oscar fought Pacquiao, at a weight most thought was far to much for Pacquiao, Oscar was a heavy favourite for that fight. Was Oscar taking a risks? Before the fight most didn't seem to think he was but he got his backside handed to him and he quit.

    Mayweather beat Pacquiao, regardless how, he beat him, something Oscar couldn't do, in fact Oscar wasn't even competitive, it was embarrassing.

    As for risks, every fighter takes risks, Mayweather moved up to 154 to fight Oscar himself and Oscar lost, I would consider that a risk that worked out well for Floyd.
