    Again, another one that confused facts with his own opinion.
    The only fact is the world does not agree with your opinion.

    Don't let it bother you, many on here don't know there is one major difference between fact and ones own opinion., that difference is your opinion is not a fact. More than that your opinion is in the minority of the whole world's opinions.

    Name a Floyd fight that was better to watch than PAC v Barrera or PAC v Morales ?

    And don't be a silly boy and point to PPv numbers cause that's like saying Friends is a better TV show than The Wire just cause it did more numbers lol

    Anyway to humour your silly response

    In My Opinion and every true boxing fan I know.....( ones who have attended loafs of boxing fights around the world ) I don't know any that put a Floyd fight in their top ten , big events yes, big build ups, but the actual fights ?? Nahhhhhhh

    Why?

    Because he is too good, you know what's gonna happen before it happens

    Pac morales 1 was a great great fight. I loved it too but both mab fights were boring due to mab being scared of being ko'd again.

    The morales 1 fight was great because it was back and forth, just because of that it's hard to beat. But many of Floyd's fights have been way better than both mab fights.

    Just a couple of easy calls.

    The Augustus fight
    Corley fight
    cotto fight
    even the chino fight was far more exciting.
    Judah fight
    jlc 1
    hatton
    ortiz I know only 4 rounds but it's not hard to beat either mab fight

    You should've said the morales 1 and jmm 4 fights. Those 2 were far and away pac's greatest fights entertainment wise.

    As a whole Floyd has had more exciting fights, to me it's not even close but pac has had some more competitive fights as a whole...

    I just can't agree with you here. Maybe wet find different things in the ring b exciting. To each his own is a great way to live. ..

    That's partially true, Floyd is too great for his own and for some boxing fans good.

    To me most of Floyd's fights which are huge huge events highly exciting. I get excited watching a once in a lifetime fighter fight while always fighting the best and the real champions in each and every division he had dominated. .

    Im love some give and take in fights too. But the skill level is far far more important and pleasing to my eyes. Excitement is enjoyment too. I can't stand watching less than highly skilled fighters in the ring. Especially when they're getting way too over hyped because the won a so called toe to toe fight when it was anything but toe to toe

    I just don't find fights that I already know the result of to be that great to watch

    Floyd fights are never dramatic for me, he rarely has to goth the well

    The fact that some his most 'exciting' fights have been ones where he has just been made to work for most of the fight ie chino, Hatton, just goes to show that he hasn't been in any great fights

    For me I'm happy for Floyd to retire now unless he wants to test his skills in a huge challenge, where he might not even be favourite, like a 160 fight, that would excite me

    If Floyd said gimme GGG at 160 I would be hyped and rooting for him

    Skill level is important only in evenly matched fights


    Competitive fights is the most important thing to boxing for me

    I ain't bothered about hype I'm bothered about competitive fights

    Give me 2 youngsters who are 10 & 0 fighting each other at York Hall on a Tuesday night over Floyd v Guerrero or that awful Garcia fight recently ....all day long

    How could it be you know the outcome before the fight takes place ?
    Is Floyd truly that great in your eyes that champion after champion after champion after etc had/has no chance at all to win ?

    Floyd is the only fighter in history that leaves champs with no chance.
    Floyd had beat more champions than anyone. It's crazy, I know. More champs than anyone yet not one of them had a legit chance.

    I could understand when he was in his natural weight class but he had been fighting almost half his career way way out of his weight class. And 3 fights at weights he had NO business at

    Really ?? How old are you 12. once in a lifetime you havent lived

    You already drank the kool-aid and obviously are delusional so whatever.

    I aint buying the hyperbole. I am older I have seen lenard hearns duran pryor arguello benitez camocho trinidad taylor ect....put any of those fighters in floyds era and I guarantee he would duck all of them

    Floyd has fought very poor competiion the last 10yrs nothing but big slow brawlers.

    For different reasons, the opponent too slow, too past it, low ring iq, Floyd is too good

    Floyd is that good, the opponent needs some sort of advantage to make you believe it could be a close fight

    It's a shame certain legacy enhancing fights didn't happen, or happened at the wrong time

    PAC prime
    Cotto prime
    Paul Williams

    Could have at least been close possibly

    but hey oh that's boxing you can't have it all, I'm fortunate enough to be one of those fans who ain't a fanboy of any particular boxer

    Floyd v PAC never happens....f@ck em both.......cause that's what they are saying to boxing fans.........boxing will go on without em

    Andre ward wants to fight in court rather than the ring ? Fine, froch and groves gave the sport some great fights

    Floyd retires ? Cool, let's see if someone like Thurman can step up and dominate

    Depends how they both perform in their upcoming fights. If they look good and dominant then expect the PPV buys to be around $2.3 million+.

    I still think 3 million easy, even right now. Just the thought of those two actually getting in the ring will stir up a frenzy. Good vs bad. Humble vs ****y. It's a fight of contrasts and everyone would pick a side. There would be daily reports for both camps leading up to the fight, even on ESPN. Still would be one of the most anticipated fights in history.
