    Well, I find it interesting that for someone that claims not to care, you spend so much time trying to discredit FM. Just admit, you were wrong, FM didn't duck KT. So you can't keep the fantasy that FM was scared of your Aussie hero. I debunked all your claims about FM waiting to fight the guys you said he waited out. I gave you an opportunity to state when FM could have made the fights and you come back with disrespect. Your response to my post is equivalent to papa Tszyu and baby Tszyu quitting on their stool. If there were announcers watching our discussion they would be yelling " Midnight Prowlers corner has stopped the fight after the 1st round. Yeah, Jim, Midnight Prowler was out of his depths on this one. Brain Damage never got out of 1st gear. What a performance from Brain Damage. Hopefully Midnight Prowler can go back to the drawing board and rebuild.

    Yeah congratulations to you mate you did a great job of defending Floyd Mayweather and showing us that you really have no hate for the Tszyu family by constantly bringing up them quitting in brutal fights. Anyway I didn't go deep on Mayweather's career I was giving my opinion that history tells us he usually only took fights where he had an advantage. You are very confident that everything you have said is a fact which I find laughable. Floyd fans have to go to great lengths to defend his behavior because it is pretty obvious to see he was a ducker and a cherry picker. Still a great fighter but very calculated and not quite as good or brave as his fans make him out to be.
    If you feel you won the debate I am happy for you as you clearly seem like somebody who has never experienced an actual victory :lol:

    Like I said, Margarito is the only duck, you can throw Williams in there too. But the guys you mentioned do not qualify as a duck.

    How many dangerous guys did tszyu fight in their prime??? A hell of a lot less than pbf did that's for damn sure. Lastly unlike Tszyu pbf ran back close fights. Tszyu didn't he didnt have that dog in him never ran it back with the Crack head or Ricky.

    Tszyu never claimed to be TBE and didn't run his mouth he was an honest humble fighter that wasn't scared to fight in the US and the UK. He took out Zab Judah in brutal fashion as the away fighter and a 3 to 1 underdog. He had a lot more dog in him that Floyd Mayweather.
    Tszyu Mitchell one was a pretty close fight that he ran back so you are wrong there. Not everyone can be an undefeated cherry picker most are not afforded the luxuries that Floyd was. Credit to Hatton and Phillips for beating him but that doesn't guarantee that Floyd would have especially at 140. Oh I guess anyone who lost to Sugar Ray lost to a crackhead too yeah?

    Pbf at 140 was better than he was at 147 faster of both hand and foot and fighting people closer to his size and had more pop there he without a doubt would've done it. Saying you're the best is irrelevant most top fighters say and think they're the best.

    Yeah cause he is 10000 light years better he would've won with out a doubt :lol:
    Tszyu fighting in the US and the UK is more dangerous than anything Mayweather ever did you don't take into account fighter going overseas because none of your favorites do. Tszyu demolished Judah in 2 rounds where Floyd struggled and went the distance and this was after Tszyu had knocked him out. Also I am not saying that Mayweather has no chance against Tszyu of course he could win but you dismissing Tszyu like a fan boy is just laughable.
