I seriously don't understand this sht, it's just not adding up. This 38 year old Floyd Mayweather Jr guy has had nearly TWO FCKIN DECADES OF P4P DOMINANCE, why are you guys acting like fighters that just started making noise recently (GGG, Brook, Thurman, Khan etc) are entitled to having Floyd prove himself against them?
it just doesn't make sense. That's like a child calling out his grandpa on stuff, you just dont do that. First you prove yourself and earn the respect, sht doesn't come all of a sudden like that. it takes a lot of years, even Floyd went through that phase.
I do understand that these fighters want the paycheck and exposure, but hey, why not work for that sht, make a legacy of your own.
I personally believe Floyd Mayweather Jr has earned the right to fight a damn bum like Berto in a FREE farewell fight. That's just me tho, im different, i am able to formulate my own thoughts, anyways thats another topic...
Absolutely nothing left to prove and most know that but it is Mayweather we're talking about. People will criticize no matter what he does, who he fights or how he fights. It is CBS Money, they likely gave him the Green Light to do what ever he wants after making the Pacquiao fight happen which end up being one of the biggest Sporting Events Ever regardless of how it turned out :dunno:
So yeah it is absolutely nothing left to prove, however when you're that good...why not finish out strong instead of weak and giving critics more to criticize you about. Instead of Celebrating an Illustrious Career, people are going to be bashing him...then again some people are going to do that anyway so I guess that is probably why he really doesn't care to try and please his critics because he knows he just can't
I've seen him fight good match ups for years almost two decades now.
But why stop now with one fight to go? We all want to see floyd get a challenge. It's exciting .
I'm no hater of floyd he annoys me sometimes, but like I said before
he deserves a bigger last fight than Andre Berto. End the career with a fight fans can get excited about.
seriously doesnt matter. no1 is gonna be moved in either direction. the people just wannna complian about him will no matter who he fights. and the ppl that like him and respect him wont be swayed by who he fights either. time for people to move on.
Its called fighting to the end! There are worthy opponents out there right now ready to fuk Floyd up bad. If Floyd wants to continue to fight at a championship level ... Well fight guys that are champions and on championship levels. If not give all those stupid belts away and rebuke yourself from the raitings and fight as a circus act . Why hold up the championship belts with shlt fights? If youre not gonna fight like a champ...go away!
You know berto is number 1 WBA :bounce:
Floyd just beat Pacquiao's and sent him back to his country in a sling. Yet the haters are still chirping.
If Floyd fights the following in September this is what will be said:
Amir Khan: Everyone knew Khan had no chin. Cherry pick for TBE.
Keith Thurman: Thurman got hurt to the body against Collazo. Thurman was all hype. Cherry pick for Floyd.
Swift Garcia: Garcia is natural 140 who lost to Herrera. Yet another cherry pick by Floyd.
GGG at 154: GGG so drained. GGG almost died on scale. Floyd bullied poor GGG to make 154. GGG drained so bad, he doesn't have any cum left to spray on his fans. Floyd cherry pick GGG at 154.
It's his last fight. He just beat Manny Pacquiao. There's literally nothing left to prove.
If you hate him, who cares who he fights? He'll be gone in 2 months. If you love him, who cares who he fights? He's given 2 decades and an ATG career.
Either way, it really doesn't matter who he fights. He's not leaving anything on the table.
100% This.

It is floyd last fight (apparantly ) do you really want to see him fight berto? If you are a fan of his, you should want to see him in a better match up than that.
That the only reason you should need. It's not a fight to bow out on. He is good enough to beat any welterweight why waste his last fight on berto
I've seen him fight good match ups for years almost two decades now.
Floyd is going to leave the game undefeated,with a ton of money,and he beat the fighter of the decade.
People need something they can say to bring him down Floyd was not supposed to leave the game like this and people are panicking.

I'll cut to the chase and give you the real reason why the legions of haters feel Floyd still has to prove himself. Mind you, they won't admit to this but just read in between the lines. I'm guessing this thread will go 20 pages deep and will all lead to one thing:
Mayweather is a dominant African American Boxer that is clearly on his way to GOAT STATUS DISCUSSION.
This frightens the KLANSMEN! They'd rather see Floyd in jail, away from his money and family. They'd rather see him in the HOLE rotting away than see him dominate the sport of boxing.
Now watch all the closeted klansman run in and scream reverse racism towards me. This is just another weak attempt to hide the OBVIOUS truth that most people know.
If Mayweather looked like Ricky Hatton, he'd already be CONFIRMED as the GOAT.
Look at the hype GGG gets. It's unbelievable for a guy that has literally defeated 0 top 25 pound for pound talent.
Contrast that with Mayweather who pretty much just beat the consensus #2 pound for pound guy in his last fight, and he beat another top 10 pound for pound talent two years ago when he defeated Canelo.
But it's not about race right??
And the Charleston massacre was not about race either?
SMH

Although I hope berto turns up and gives floyd a challenge he isn't expecting. Because he is expecting a soft touch to look fantastic against
Berto may shock us all. You can't underestimate any opponent. But no one will be excited for this fight.
