Your thought process is irrational. In my opinion, by the time Floyd Mayweather came back, a lot of these fighters you are talking about basically killed each other and/or they were no longer hot. Many of them fizzled out. And this happens with many fighters in boxing.
Now there's a theory that some folks like Naziim Richardson has, which is once all these fighters killed one another and fizzled out, Floyd came back to pick apart the few that remained from the carnage. Naziim feels that this was Floyd's plan all along because 147 was too hot. I don't really agree, but there is at least some logic to his theory. And I can even understand how he's come to that conclusion.
But your theory is so off the charts and irrational, you'd blame Floyd for the orbital bone that Margarito suffered by Pacquaio. Or if Canelo Alvarez slips on a banana peel one day, you'd argue Floyd is the cause of that too. I think it's crazy to believe that Floyd is somehow the sun of boxing, and all other planets (as in boxers) revolve around him.
