I agree with him completely.
You have just exposed yourself as a moron.
Golovkin and Pacquiao have proven themselves very well.
Sure Floyd beat great opponents and deserves his considerations. But he has also proven his extreme cowardice in both engineering fights on a preferred timing basis and total refusal to fight the number 2 of his generation. See post above.
"ban worthy" ha, more like a reality check mate! ;)
if you think macklin vs golovkin screams "thats the greatest fighter I've ever seen" you need to be hit with a bag full of tuna fish cans..............
because thats exactly what you are: A none boxing knowledge CAN.

A thriller? not sure what fight you were watching, and no one wanted to see a rematch.
lol yeah, the pre-roided lightweight forced up two divisions. Get outta here.
OP, none of Mayweather's fights made me feel that way because it doesn't reflect reality.
Pacquiao v De La Hoya, Cotto and Hatton showed me we were watching something special. Genuine jaw-dropping viewing.
Same for Golovkin v Macklin and Geale, although the jury very much remains out on him.

I was in awe at how he handled the great Diego Corrales so easily and how he kept his composure against Hatton and finished him. Hatton was like a wild energizer bunny.
He very well could be the greatest fighter ever. But I have always suspected Manny Pacquiao would either have him, or would have had him at one point.
So even though he could have been for much longer, only his recent fight against the much stronger and supremely athletic, Alvarez seemed to prove undeniably that Mayweather, atleast by that stage, would have outboxed Pac Man. Especially in light of Pac's decline (KO by Marquez, struggle with Bradley, failure to KO opponents etc).
However, that position now seems to have reversed. Pac looks completely dominant now by whipping Rios really badly and avenging convincingly against Bradley, whilst meanwhile Floyd saw one of his most gravest struggles against B level boxer Maidana. Basically "Pacquiao LITE"
So given that Pac is galvanised toward a Floyd fight and Floyd has shamefully ducked the fight forever now. It's only fair...
1. Pac
2. Floyd
TBE
Only by manning up, and taking this fight and beating the natural enemy will I ever yield and confirm that Floyd was really TBE!
I would even be prepared to overlook the fact that it might have been different against a prime Pac in light of the fact that they both fought the highest quality opponents and Floyd went unbeaten whilst Pac did suffer losses.
But, alas, I'm sorry to say, Floyd would NEVER risk his ass in this fight, he is
the epitome of a coward with talent. "Riddick Bowe syndrome" if I ever saw it.
He does not have the heart of a warrior. Fact! I suspect he would retire promptly at his first defeat. That's the sort of fighter he is unfortunately!

im with you. i just dont see the greatest boxer ive ever seen when i watch any of floyds fights. im trying to see what fight people saw and against which opponent to make them think that. i dont see it.
The TS is slurping up Floyds junk too much for me but I knew he was special when he put that beatdown on Gatti. Gatti is not a good fighter, I never thought he was but Floyd was putting on show that night.
When he beat the all time great (though over the hill) Golden Boy in a thriller and the biggest fight in history.

After that when he gave Dinamita a boxing lesson.

If that's the case, no matter who Floyd beats from here on out, you can say "but XYZ". Hypothetically speaking, if Floyd beats GGG at 160, you can say "but look what old Cotto did to him at 154, Floyd's victory over GGG doesn't count". So me, as the debater, it makes me question you as the TS and forces me to ask the question "what's the point in debating" if regardless of who we say, you'll shoot down the idea.
That said, this version of Cotto with Freddie Roach would be the favorite against Canelo in my book.
nah floyds record isnt that good in context.
Mayweather-Genaro Hernandez
Mayweather-Diego Corrales
Mayweather-Jose Luis Castillo II
Mayweather-Juan Manuel Marquez
Mayweather-Shane Mosley
Mayweather-Miguel Cotto
Mayweather-Canelo Alvarez
really? those fights made you think he's the greatest boxer in the history of the sport? those guys arent even close to wilfredo benitez skill level. and he had trouble with a old cotto. ray leonard didn't even catch a nose bleed from marvin hagler.
diego fight was a great performance, but diego's just caught a case and got of jail before the fight.
Floyd beating the piss out of Chico corrales impressed me, had he continued fighting top competition I'd consider him as one of the best but his competition leaves alot to be desired.
that's the greatest fighter I've ever seen. What moment made you think he was the greatest boxing specimen in the history of the sport?
