How can a anyone other than a casual be a fan of Floyd Mayweather Jr?

[UTEP]

As for floyd himself, he is an excellent fighter, he just avoids threats and always has a ton of excuses....ALWAYS! This affects his legacy to real boxing fans, people that were into the sport before he showed up and will afterwards. The casuals and 99% of the racist floydspastics on this forum will melt away when he's gone or just transfer their devotion from 50% ******ation, 50% racism into 100% race baiting. We are seeing the evidence of this in the way these ******s are reacting to GGG and Kovalevs success.

I was a fan of his in the earlier phase of his career, but his obsession with money is grotesque and has led to him always taking the path of least resistance. His talent and ability could put him amongst the very best fighters ever, yet he simply doesnt have the body of work to rubber stamp it. He has avoided his biggest threat and rival like the plague and is unique in that regard amongst great fighters of the past. The true greats got the hell on with it and sought out and fought their biggest rival.

It sucks, but its just the way HE has made it. He will be set for life, rich beyond his wildest dreams, but a truly great fighter? Too many question marks.

idk bout ts but everytime a bring a chick over that's never watched boxing and pop in may-canelo fight, they're tuned in. amazed at how unhittable and quick he is

That may say more about Canelo, who isn't a bum, but was just too ponderous and conventional against Floyd. Pop in the Cotto fight instead and see what the chicks have to say. And no, I'm not one of those guys that thought Cotto won, it was just a way more competitive fight.
