    how do u sign a contract agreeing to all your oponents demands, and when you make your demand he walks away after contradicting himself and going crazy over a drug test, but you are the one who avoided the fight??? funny logic to me, i understand floyd contradicted himself and did all kinds of stupid ish in the following years after 2009 but the FACT remains that in 2009 (when it mattered the most) as admitted by freddie roach The fight could have happend but didnt because of pac n his team.
    Really? can you elaborate on this?

        Ali retired to protest the war the u.s. tried to get him to join...

        Floyd retired when the Welters were going to war with each other and the u.s. fans wanted to get him to join in...

        Ali went to jail in protest of u.s. politics...

        Floyd went to jail for spousal abuse and claimed he was victim of local politicians grandstanding.

        Ali was an Olympic Gold medalist.....

        Floyd was also an Olympic medalist....

        Ali beat top guys while out of his prime.....

        Floyd beat guys who were out of their prime....

        Ali fought his biggest challenge 3 times.....

        Floyd let his biggest challenge get laid out fighting someone else 4 times....

        Ali cheated on his women...

        Floyd's women cheat on him....

        Ali is called the TBE

        Floyd and his entourage wears TBE clothing...

          Really??? If Floyd fought the ppl he was suppose to fight when the fights were relevant we wouldn't be having this discussion... Who should Floyd fight 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...

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

                don't you mean to say that as soon as Tim beat Manny he should have sought a fight with the lineal champ instead of saying he doesn't need to fight Floyd and resiging with TR , thus ensuring the fight wouldn't happen?

                  u do know floyd is under bob arum right? when is the last time floyd fought a bob arum fighter or a fighter under top rank? i want those fights to happen as well but the reality of this situation needs to be taken into account.

                    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.
                    Frist of all, Ali isn't the GOAT, second of all stop acting as if he's the GOAT, and third, there is literally nothing Ali and Floyd have in common other than they are both African American, and they both are/were boxers.
