About a year ago I went to Backyard Burger and ordered my usual for take out. I got home and the waffle fries were stale and the burger looked as if it was put into a press it was so flat. I’ve never have been back to that place or any other Backyard Burger. To me Floyd is that Backyad Burger.

Fighters like Mayorga, Toney & Floyd all disrespect their opponent to much for my likeings and then don’t/can’t back up what they say. I understand they are trying to sell the fight but they go way to far IMHO. How many times in a row do we have to hear Floyd or the others he will demolish an opponent, knock them the F**K out and then pot shot his way to victory. You can only cry wolf so many times.
I have no problem with a fighter be confident in their abilites and beliveing they will win but come on as Ironhammer said when is the last time Floyd destroyed an opponent. He couldnt even put Glass Chin Zab to sleep.

i’d pick fmj over both also, but would expect both to be competitive and would not be shocked at an upset in either fight. but in the eyes of a sick nuthugger, and one that cannot read, predicting that floyd would pot shot his way to an unspectacular *victory* over 2 future hall of fame fighters is “hating on the guy, etc.”

fmj is not the greatest of all time or close, but remember, this guy admitted earlier in the thread to “jocking” rich and famous people. probably living vicariously through them actually, to make up for shortcomings in his own life. thats usually how it works. but i would love to know how that sad poster “boxing_guru,” whose nuts rios has a hold on tight, fits into the “rich and successful” category. he’s just some silly student. seems that guy ran and hid when mosley (who he has slammed on this site for over a year for using steroids) agreed to take the tests his hero, pacquiao would not.

It’s fine if Floyd wants to cherry pick fighters and make money as he winds down his career as long as he recognizes that is what he is doing. But Floyd is/was Cherry picking and trying to justify those fights all while saying he was the best P4P. Then when all of us supposed haters called him out for it all of a sudden it was becasue he was black and then we bcame racists.

If the fight goes through with Mosely and if Floyd beats him I wont offer up any excuses about Moselys age, after all the two fighters most wanted Floyd to face were Pac and Mosely. All I can say is it is about time Floyd finally stepped up after all he didnt have much choice. Any small amount of credibility he had woulld have been lost with a Paulie or Hatton fight

only a floyd groupie would consider his running around for 12 rounds and potshotting opponents as destroying them. is a knockout too much to ask from the *greatest fighter that ever laced up gloves?*

as for mosley, the guy has never been knocked out and he took rematches that he didn’t have to take with forrest and winky (both possesed physical advantages over shane that fmj doesnt have) and he fared much better the second time. although why explain this to some blind idiot nuthugger? if mayweather wins a fight that he is heavily favored to win over a 38 year old fighter that hasn’t fought in a year and a half, big fkg deal. all i have to say is, ABOUT TIME. but if he loses…

I agree he should retire, though. He’s not in serious debt,and he’ll go out being recognized as the best of the past decade because of the quality of his fights. Not bad at all.

what do u mean lesser opponents? did u compare both pac & pbf’s last 10 fights?
take a good look & see who has fought lesser opponents, b4 pbf vs mosley was made, mayweather’s camp is thinking paulie m. or m. hatton, a big joke, isnt it? why not pwill instead, i think he is the most dangerous WW out there. even i think that p will will be too much for pac

I am amazed to recall the years i used to follow baseball, and now realize how many guys were actually juicing reguraly. Its so funny and obvious from the rise and quick decline of their stats. The most tell tale sign is when after three stellar superhuman years of 40 homers and 130 RBI’s, they are on the Disabled List for the next 2 years, and eventually end up sitting the bench with a 100 million dollar contract hitting .220 with 3 homers and 30 rbi’s ala Jason Jiambi, Sosa, Tejada, and the list goes on and on. Look at Manny Ramirez now, he cant play a full season because he keeps getting injured, and we wouldnt have known until he got busted

In boxing Mosley couldnt perfrom after the juice, James Toney keeps breaking down, Evander nearly died in the ring due to heart failure, and i am sure if we examined other boxers who shined like shooting stars out of nowhere only to fall off the face of the earth shortly thereafter, we could make some pretty strong conclusions about their performance.

Lol!
