What is it about him that makes you even like Floyd?

So much salt in this thread.

some of u guys need male role models in ur life????

the fact boxing fans cant even comprehend that there are fans that enjoy watching him fight is almost dumbfounding to me. i get that some people only like action fights but geez have some common sense

Hes black and he is rich thats all that matters to the flo mos.

Lol you basically proved me right, and yes we are paying for boxing fights so why the **** shouldn't we expect good fights. Pretty pathetic that you care for some stranger's health and money over your own bottom line. I don't wish any boxer harm, but this is a combat sport, pain and injury are part of the game, everyone who fights knows that going in or at least should know that. I wish it was earlier so I could reply to the rest of your idiotic rebuttals(I suppose because I have never been a mailman, I can't criticize one that does a bad job huh, gtfo with that stupid logic, and I have sparred) but it's late so I will leave it at that. Your response showcases your intelligence or lack thereof. So you just like the rock em sock em action? Go watch tough man competitions, you obviously do not fight

My honest opinion of Floyd Mayweather jr is as follows... 1 ... I think he is a despicable human being. No MAN beat on a woman, or women in his case, especially in front of his children Only cowards do that 2... Boxing wise? No one denies he has incredible God Given boxing talents but talent alone does not make him an ATG. He needed the heart ,courage & cojones of a champion. These things he lacked sadly. Had he not ducked people like Pacquaio, Margarito, Williams etc but gone ahead & fought them then he may well have beaten them all & then he really could be named among the best ever.. Had he lost one or two his legacy would still be far better than it is today Add to this the ludicrous demands he's made of the people he did fight like Testing, Gloves etc I feel he basically wasted his incredible talents 5 years after his final fight he'll be forgotten This is just my honest personal opinion nothing more Sounds more like wishful thinking.

His fans make him unbareable ! Plus the fact that he has padded his record since moving up from 130 also makes it worse because his fans like to Elevate guys like Gatti into a greater fighters than he actually was all because he held a belt . Tremendous talenet but extremely over hyped all because he generated the most money . Lol. Padded record? Try again. Pac fans are annoying too but at least they have true passion behind there fandom. Floyd fans are a bunch a fair weather hood rat boxing fans, that will disappear as soon as he retires or loses. The same Oversized TBE hat wearing ratchet who swears by Floyd cant even name another black fighter. Yeah I was one of them once, but most of them will disappear the same way the broner fans did. Fair weather? You were that once? You mean weak minded right?

What's not to like? If you want a cerebral boxer he's been that his whole Pro career, he's always adapted in the ring,if you watch and see his subtle adjustments. If you want to knock out puncher check out his early career .Been champion since 21 years of age, has find 20 + world title fights!***55357;***56881; For those who follow his early career he was a knockout artist. What triple G is now is what Diego Corrales was then when he fought him Floyd was the underdog! When people talk about how many punches Pacman throws per round ,go watch Philip Ndo throw over a hundred punches per round and Floyd Stopped him! So you have a boxer went from being a. Ko artist to being a defensive boxer seamlessly also to be the highest grossing boxer and to becoming a great promoter of himself! Just respect the blueprint that he created for future generations of boxers, not the man outside ring, but the man inside the ring!

he beats all the people that everyone says he wont fight or is scared of an usually makes it look easy I also like him because he changed the game and fighters will be the ones getting paid handsomely because they take all the risk

He is an artist in the ring

gives out to the community loves his mama first man to go the extra mile to clean up the sport of boxing gave every close fight a rematch gives every opponent they highest payday always giving his friends and girlfriends gifts (cars, jewelry, clothes, etc. etc.) has his own gym that keeps kids off the street need i say more?

Floyd is a classless cunt who is afraid to engage. I despise him more than I did Hamed ! Oh and he is 47-1 at best . Watch the JLC fight and score it.

I still don't get how being a fan of Floyd is a bad thing? Am I suppose to feel guilty for digging a guy I have followed since his Olympic career, that I thought was one of the best before most people could pick his ass out of a line-up. Even if someone is new to the sport because of Floyd why is that a bad thing exactly?

I like what most of his haters hate. His is a black man at the top of his sport, through hard work and dedication, talent and skills. He is what his haters would call an exciting fighter for at least half of his career. He was a dominant fighter at lower weight with huge wins. He crushed Corrales He blasted Gatti He had numerous knockouts. All that got him was avoided by big names like Oscar and others who labeled him ***8220;high risk low reward***8221; So he took what was a hall of fame career and changed direction by gambling on himself. He did what many black men in America don***8217;t get the chance to do and that is take control of his own career. He decided to take all his blood, sweat, and pain and make the money off of it. He also did it in a sport where success and failure is based solely on your own skills and dedication. He didn***8217;t bow to Arum, or the system. He would not be told how to act to get money. He got it HIS way, and he got it more that any boxer ever. Yes he had the domestic violence issue. That was fvcked up. But no worse than dozens of other loved boxers throughout history. So that makes one ask WHY do people hate him so much? And the answer that a lot will never admit to is that they hate a successful black man who will not bow to the powers that be, but not only that makes those powers that be bow to his will. He is the biggest name in the sport of boxing and the best of his generation and he controls every aspect of his career. And he did not have to do this by ***8220;stepping an fetching***8221; to some other man***8217;s tune. He did all this by being a genius at his craft and dedicated to the sport of boxing. He did it by beating every man that was in the ring with him at the sport of BOXING.

Like nothing about him outside the ring, can care less....but I enjoy how he has mastered the unnoticed things, like foot work/foot placement, angles, timing and damn near impossible to hit....just him in ring...I enjoy it, just as much as wars like gatti/ward

Pure nonsense. There's been Floyd fans on this website for 10 years. There's numerous Floyd fans who have been following the sport before Floyd was even pro. Yeah I was one of them once, but most of them will disappear the same way the broner fans did.

Been a Mayweather fan since he debuted. Respect the fighter not the man. The guys boxing ability is the best i've seen for quite some time but I'm not required to like who he is outside of the ring. I guarantee you if social media was around in boxing's hey day, there'd be a lot more hated fighter. Ali, SRR, Jack johnson, all were womanizers, hell Ali even had his side piece with him for the biggest fight of his career while his wife was at home with the kids! Who cares, I pay to see boxing, not men with vices, I can get that at home.

Pac fans are annoying too but at least they have true passion behind there fandom. Floyd fans are a bunch a fair weather hood rat boxing fans, that will disappear as soon as he retires or loses. The same Oversized TBE hat wearing ratchet who swears by Floyd cant even name another black fighter. The scary thing is that you believe this fantasy.
