The man that truly gave his life to boxing was roy jones . He went above and beyond to please his fans by ruining his body with all the weight gaining ,weight losing and that just aged him quick . Mayweather did what he wanted ,when he wanted and when the fans are the reason for his wealth , he should do what the fans want ,and that's what roy did

"Pernell is a guy who doesn't give out a lot of compliments. He didn't want to say anything about another fighter, because he didn't like the idea of anyone upstaging him. But I remember him saying to me, 'Man, this kid is good right now.' He said to Floyd, 'You stay with this and you remain dedicated, ain't nobody going to touch you.' " - Whitaker was #1 P4P, FM was 17

pernell whitaker is floyd's true favorite fighter and his true inspiration. You can tell Floyd learned a lot from Whitaker and he must've took a lot of Pernell's tricks, defense style and moves and added them to his arsenal. Just by watching them fight you can clearly see how one inspired the style of the other.

Whitaker n Floyd have different styles.Floyd style is highly functional, utterly crisp/sharp, with a wonderful punching technique, top level shoulder rolling, parrying, or even simple ducking and swaying when he gets comfortable. He mostly doesn't move more than he needs to, and he has quite a professional but simple potent approach in the ring. He likes to save energy, With quick, economical motions, it's business like and he breaks people down bit by bit, like a surgeon. His style Is actually very old, he likes to play chess with his opponents. He like Hopkins, they get opponents to fight at their pace, because of this their style is more Robotic looking, Floyd style is about taking low risk as possible, it's like a business man, He's like BILL GATES, it's more business than fighting. His style is like the art of war, in basket ball he'll be like Kwai Lenard and Tim Duncan. Not flashy guys but they are very economical in their play. His approach is logical like Gene Roddenberry.fun

Dave Conrad Of all the dumbass things I have heard said about Floyd is the comment that "he's picking his words carefully." WTF??? I have made a living speaking - and a good exciting one too - TALKING!!!!!!! And I think Floyd's conversation is fluid, beautifully cadenced, dramatic and eloquent! You need to GET A LIFE LITTLE STEVIE!!!!!!

Underneath all the flash , false bullshit, which is sometimes embarrassing, gloating about his pads, dollars n everything else, is a man who has dedicated his life to the hard grind. It’s nice to see really, he’s got all the stories which you know are absolutely true. Shame people didn’t see more of him like this. Defo one of the best to ever do it.

@@davidjamisonnmmeto603 I'm not a Floyd fan, but I do respect what he said and how he said it here. I just wouldn't think that one of the greatest fighters to do it would be "easy work" for him is all. I consider Chavez to be superior to Floyd on the scale of greats and Whitaker beat the breaks off him and then was given a ridiculous draw out of it.

@@shmokey59 1 plenty of boxers have moved more than Floyd in the ring and 2 there are plenty of boxers with heavier output than Floyd, he is just more efficient with his punches. You honestly think that Pernell Whitaker, the man who was robbed on 3 out of his 4 loses and beat a prime Chavez was outclassed by Floyd? Give me a break man

It will take some time but there will be a time when Floyd will be remembered as Legend. Right now he is still too cocky and people dont want to give him credit because of it but in like 15-20yrs people will admit to his greatness.

Rick People forget that Ali was hated most of his career also and didn’t get the recognition he truly deserved until after he retired and fell ill with Parkinson’s disease. Floyd will get his props at some point in time once people stop being blinded by the “Money” persona.

The interviewer ruined the interview by saying, "I heard it was easy work for you" because Floyd was about to explain what the sparring session was like, which is what we were all waiting to hear, but when dude said that, Floyd had no choice but to respond with "I always respect a champion" and that was it, nothing about the sparring.
