    Explain this one>>>>>>>

    You Mayweather lemmings say GGG should fight Ward next right?? To do that GGG would have to fight a man naturally weighing FIFTEEN POUNDS heavier than him right??
    BUT you say its not fair to expect Floyd to accept GGG's offer to fight him at 154 right?? But doesn't Floyd already hold a world title at 154 meaning he's a 154 champ right???

    Now do you see how hypocritical you Floyd lemmings are???
    You keep making fools of yourselves trying to defend a pathetic coward:patsch

    Was he drained when he beat Matthew Hatton at 150, was he drained when he beat Trout at 153...but against Floyd it's suddenly a problem? Is that how it work? Lose to Floyd...find excuse

    Floyd has defeated opponents 15+ lbs bigger than him on multiple occasions, has Golovkin?

    Hearns

    FMJ is a bit of a myth isn't he?
    He's managed his career fantastically and picked his opponents superbly, never fighting anyone when they were at their best. That said there's been very few top class fighters around during his career unlike the era of Hearns, Duran, Hagler, Leonard, Benitez etc

    The weight doesn't matter. The fact that he was ko'd and beaten by unanimous decision by a crude boxer that he could've probably outboxed is the difference. Both rose up in weight and both were hurt by naturally bigger men.

    Fighters don't avoid guys like Barkley. Barkley was a tough guy, but you don't let tough guys ko you or win by UD. And as far as the 80's, Floyd would've had some major challenges around his weight in Nelson, Sanchez, Camacho, Chavez Sr, Rosario, Ramirez, and Arguello for starters, and Floyd was capable of beating them all.

    A guy like Antonio Margarito would've been killed fighting WW's in the 80's.

    Floyd doesn't ever win these types of debates. He flosses his money too much.

    Well, one can conclude this thread that the clear majority of fans here believe that Hearns is the greater fighter.

    This also confirms my initial opinion.

    theres no doubt money is an atg in the making.

    Hearns however does what money does, and a bag of chips.
