LOL! The excuses will never end and the HATE is real.
I don't know why some posters are hell bent on denying Mayweather's greatness, and it's nowhere near the extent anyone would attempt to deny Manny's. Mayweather is almost done too.
I'm not I def think he is the best of this era without a doubt.
but don't be a dyckrider and act like he doesn't pull some type of ****ary everytime so that his opponent have an excuse later on.
Mayweather only got himself to blame for the excuses tbh

Give it 5 years. He will be appreciated more. Ali and Whitaker were hated too but now they appear on every ATG list.
Whatever floyd will be ranked somewhere in between klitscho and calzaghe
Because he didn't do anything illegal. You know like low blow and rabbit punch that starts a melee.
I clearly remember mayweather trainer entering the ring which shouldve been rule a auto DQ:thinking:
if u say no
you don't know shyyt about boxing-Mayweather Sr
Except for a few of those most of those "excuses" sound pretty factual. But you are right in the end we will see where he ends up, and I am not sure where you get the "only racists, or idiots" dislike Floyd, there are many legitimate reasons to dislike Floyd if you can't see them, then you are the only idiot here. Maybe you shouldn't agree, but you should understand why Floyd is disliked so much, most of it is because of his fighting style though.
maybe he shouldn't leave the door open for them to be legit :thinking:
why wasn't mayweather DQ in the Zab fight doe that's what I wanna know.....

Wow! Nice perspective. I agree totally. People have their agenda when it comes to Floyd and they can't get over themselves. Similar to Larry Merchant.
I remember back in the late 90s/early 2000s when Merchant would bash Mayweather non stop as a "NON ATTRACTION" and a "BORING FIGHTER".
How does a boring non attraction become the wealthiest fighter in the history of the sport? Did he cherry pick his fans as well? LOL
Oh yea, and good memory on the Shane Mosley toothache thing. These guys have been the ones ducking Floyd. SMH
I can take the Mosley thing back to his lightweight days. Floyd tried to fight Shane back when Shane was at 135 and training with his dad.
He and his dad turned the fight down to chase Oscar De La Hoya. To be specific they fought Wilfredo Rivera. That was supposed to be Floyd in the ring with Mosley that night.
These new school idiotic wannabe boxing fans don't know the history like that. All they know how to do is parrot words like CHERRY PICKER, DUCKER, CHICKEN, etc...
Ray Robinson and Jake LaMotta are rolling around in their graves right now. This new era of boxing fans are WACK!
Again, good post!
You mean the Larry Merchant who picked Floyd to win pre fight, that same guy? :thinking:

So were the headlocks, holding, and denial of USADA approved medical treatment. I mean, if we are going to look at the facts here.
thats the crazy thing. I wonder sometimes had floyd lost any of those fights would you have heard:
-Pac ducked floyd all theses years til floyds legs was shot in the ripe old age of 38
- Canelo cherrypicked a smaller older floyd
- Maidana is a coward cheater who had to resort to illegal blows to win against floyd
- Miguel Cotto ducked a younger floyd and made him come up in weight years later and a week before he was going to jail so he could get the mental advantage and weight advantage....coward
-shane ducked floyd all these years with toothaches and decides to cherrypick floyd after floyd was out the ring for two years and one tune up
-Victor ortiz was always a mental midget, thats why he had to super jump headbutt his way to victory.
- Jmm fought a floyd coming off a two year layoff and a rib injury to duck pacquiao again.
- Hatton woulda lost to a prime 140lb floyd, but he fought him a 147 cuz he knew floyd had no power there.
- De la hoya got the ring, gloves, weight and all against a smaller floyd...so typical.
- Zab Judah had to nutt punch his way to victory.
-Had that knockdown in the second rd counted, Castillo wouldnt have won that robbery. This was the 96 olympics all over again.
- Diego was too big and fought a green floyd mayweather.
-Angel manfreddy was a bum who got lucky floyd only had one title fight.
i highly doubt it.

Why does it surprise you. Any fighter now a days gets no credit for their wins.
Nelo gets no credit for his wins
Danny Garcia gets no credit.
GGG gets no credit for his wins.
Amir Khan, Tim Bradley, Adrian Broner, Keith Thurman, Carl Froch, Abner Mares, Pacquio, thy all get hated on and get no credit.
And God forbid any of these guys have a close fight that swings their way because people will scream robbery.
Bob Arum said he was afraid of needles... . . .Everyone knows that Pac agreed to the blood tests long ago, it was the cutoff date that was debated. It was blood being drawn close to the fight that was the initial obstacle which has absolutely nothing to do with a fear of needles. Everyone knows this.
