    Ducking is mostly nonsense. Money talks it's a business...

    Anyways, a guy Floyd MISSED was Kostya but it wasn't his fault.

    Something, something damn Hatton.

    EXACTLY !! Floyd was literally terrified of Margarito He was blabbering & stuttering like a crazy man. Both Floyd's were scared of Pac , Williams too. He never wanted any part of Khan either
    What made me laugh was when he announced the Berto fight & everyone laughed. I remember MVC saying
    He's just teasing ya'll he wont fight him BUT HE DID!! & the fought an MMA fighter making his pro boxing debut
    & called it " My record breaking 50-0 fight Some ATG P4P hero huh lol

    I know the video you are talking about of Margarito and Floyd you are seeing things lmao. You hate Floyd don't you? bad enough to think he was scared of Amir Khan of all people. Does it bother you he licked Pac with ease and never fought Tony because he was flattened by Old Mosley and Pacman?

    Corley was a pretty good defender but not "slick" like Johnston, Casamayor, Mitchell, Spinks, etc.--guys who were consistent movers. He was harder to touch when he was on the move (ala Cotto) but oftentimes sacrificed the efficiency of his defense by being aggressive, like he did against Mayweather.

    Floyd beat an 8 division champion

    Exactly .. Floyd said Williams was too big for him ... also the Quintana exposed Williams crap is just that .. Quintana was a southpaw and it was his night in timing Williams .. Floyds a righty and in no way that says that he would have been successful as the southpaw was

    I’m wondering what type of psychedelics you’d have to ingest to convince yourself that Quintana would present greater issues than Floyd Mayweather.

    I can assure you that Mayweather would be more successful across the board, against any opponent, than Carlos Quintana.

    Friends from the gym were there They saw it all. They took their own videos of Floyd going into hysterics because he was all alone his goons had wandered off. No one was interested in Floyd till Tony showed up LOL.
    He was literally TERRIFIED!!!
    Floyd blatantly ducked Khan after fans voted Khan as Floyd's next opponent lol Plus Floyd NEVER "licked pac with ease" Floyd BARELY scraped a win over an injured, sabotaged Pac man. No one ever "flattened " Tony
    Watch the Documentary MANNY!!!! you's see Manny saying it was his hardest fight he'd never been hit so hard & he was lucky to have survived it & win. If you look real close you'll also see a good looking guy behind them. LOL That was just before Pac collapsed in pain from his damaged ribs
