once Floyd retires and his online children go back to watching WWE, noone will be claiming that he's GOAT 10 years from now

It doesn't matter cuz Floyd exhausted his options a long time ago... It's all about the money now... As soon Tim beat JMM Floyd should have went after Tim, but instead he creates a poll between Maidana and Kahn... "But he extended his contract doe" F. uck your Cold War... Only reason we have one is cuz of the ppl on your team...

Does it upset you knowing that Muhammad Ali, known as the best fighter to ever walk the face of the earth was just as hated as Floyd Mayweather is during his run? Yet is widely regarded to as the G.O.A.T.?
Is this foreshadowing? Why is it that a man so hated in the boxing community, better yet, in the entire world is widely considered the best fighter to ever step foot in a boxing ring? Ali is without a doubt the greatest fighter of all time but it took a couple years for people to acknowledge it due to the blind and emotional hatred they held for that man.
Down the line in a few years I think Mayweather will get the same recognition he deserves, despite all of the blind and emotional hatred he receives from casual boxing fans. Give or take a few years to marinate, and you'll look back at his career and see that he only took the best challenges available to him and never lost.
