Every fighter they ever claimed to be a warrior or had heart was because they took a beating in the ring ... still won usually but took a beating. Why do that when you don't have to?

True, Floyd has 25 KO's but weren't most of those @ 130 & 135? Floyd might be faster than Ray but only by a little, had they fought Ray would not have been detered by Floyd's punch & eventually forced Floyd to trade - especially had they fought 15 rounds. Floyd's a great defensive fight but then so was Benitez & Ray was able to tag him.
