True or False: Floyd never defeated fighters as great as Crawford, Stevenson, Davis, Ennis, orSpence

Stevenson, Davis and Spence havenever faced the kind of opposition that beat Cotto.

 

No, Canelo learned a llot from the Floyd fight and carried on improving, he punches a lot harder than he did back then.

 

No way he beat Castillo, I agree with you on Maidana. I rate Floyd very near the top ever, and he definitely has an argument for GOAT, but he at absolute best got a draw vs Castillo fairly.

 

No way, Crawford is an amazing fighter.

 

I said both guys were faded when they faced Mayweather. However, Crawford and Spence really haven't beaten anyone of note. DLH and Pacquaio had far better resumes, DLH especially at the higher weights. So really, who knows? Maybe Crawford and Spence are better than I'm giving them credit for but they haven't really proved it in the ring.

 

He nearly out-worked Floyd.

 

Floyd admitted he ducked opponents in their primes, easy money.

 

False.

 

100% disagree. All those guys struggled against opposition way worse than Quartey. Ugas lost to low level competition, Garcia lost to Herrera and struggled with a very faded Erik Morales, and Porter lost to Brook in his prime. I don't think you've ever seen Ike fight to make a statement like that. The class of Welters and Super Welters were very, very good around 2000.

Also, ever heard of Felix Trinidad? He would have KO'd all those of those guys in under 5 rounds.

 

100% agree. Amazing fighter indeed. However, I can't imagine Floyd being outskilled by anyone in history. I think he wins a wide UD.

 

Boxing in the early 2000`s was really bad however Tito was class, Quartey however was very limited and predictable.

 

False.

 

Are you saying then that Prime Floyd and Manny are the same level as C class Ugas ?

 

He would have yes but by then he was running the market. Sugar Ray Leonard and Mike Tyson did the same, it's being at the top and staying at the top. Canelo being doing it as well.
