Time to Respect Floyd Mayweather

it all really depends on how long you have been watching the sport. i dont like mayweather for many reasons. There are many great fights we didnt get to see because floyd himself knew the risk that was involved. avoiding, retiring beatin the weakest opposition can only take you so far. people are forced to belive what floyd wants you to belive. first fight I watched was the first cotto vs margarito, after that got hooked on to boxing

Thats is a key in understanding figures from the past. you have been skipping your economic classes, printing money over time decreases the value, in other terms its also known as inflation

and you call yourself a boxing fan? first of all thats not even true. SRL made the equivalent of $30mm in 1980 to fight Duran. Ali was making $9 million purses in the 70s. secondly that isht dont matter....fighters dont go to the HOF for the size of their bank accounts. You have to explain this better. Leonard didn't make $30 million in 1980 to fight Duran. He made $9 million. But if you adjust that for inflation (I didn't do the math), then maybe it's $30 million at today's standard? Is that what you were trying to say? If SRL made $30mm in 1980, that is almost 60 million right now due to the inflation rate. that's crazy Leonard made $9 million in 1980 for his first fight versus Duran.

If he deserved more respect than he already has received then his fans wouldnt be begging for it almost every day :lol1: Good god, Mayweather fans are so insecure, always quick to bash people for not knowing real boxing. Your man is a duck boy, just deal with it ! i also love it when they ask "what other fighter has blah blah blah"

Why do so many posters on here hate on Floyd. I have been seeing threads where Pacquiao, Duran and even Chavez ranked ahead of him. Everyone knows that mayweather has a better resume than all these fighters. I am not a fan of Floyd style at all but If you appreciate talent and hardwork then you should jump on the wagon . He has fought fighters such as Prime Oscar, Cotto, Castillo, Corrales, Marquez, Canelo and now Maidana. Its hard to like his personality but his resume speaks for itself and Of course he has ducked many fighters but that doesn't mean his past resume goes to garbage. I am pretty sure to be able to become a top P4P fighter in the world. You have to face top legit fighters . How many times have you seen him get knocked down and being a boxer myself it is extremely hard to do what he does which is to outsmart, outskill and protect yourself the whole 36 minutes.The ring is a small place. We should respect a fighter especially If he is undefeated. it all really depends on how long you have been watching the sport. i dont like mayweather for many reasons.

However, he has made 10x as much in purses as these greats have, put together and you call yourself a boxing fan? first of all thats not even true.

Sure, whatever that is buddy. Carry on with your nonsense. You obviously are not here to DISCUSS boxing. Like the other dude said, just ignore it. That dude is the most infamous Flo-mo on this forum.

Quack Quacking is the problem

Time to lock this thread and throw away the key.

Yep, of course. Back to name calling and nothing else. Dispute facts, dont just get mad and name call when someone disagrees with you. Ignore it! This is what children do when they don't have a real reply.

You're a floydgimp. You only agree with fellow floydgimps....thats a FACT.:lol1: Sure, whatever that is buddy. Carry on with your nonsense. You obviously are not here to DISCUSS boxing.

He wanted to fight both of them and THEY were the ones that wouldn't take the fight, so how can he be blamed for that? Lol, what a bunch of flowmo garbage!:lol1: Yep, of course. Back to name calling and nothing else. Dispute facts, dont just get mad and name call when someone disagrees with you.

You know it cant be anyones else fault when it comes to Floyd not fighting someone on this board. All the blame for every fight that these people wanted to see that didnt happen is all on Floyd. Even if he called people out and they turned him down. Lol, what a bunch of flowmo garbage!:lol1:
