Floyd Mayweather has shown us nothing we haven't seen before in a boxing ring.

This so called boxing genius has invented nothing. Not the roll, not the shell, not the pull counter and on and on. These moves were on display way way before Floyd was born. Floyd's a master of most but creator of none. Geniuses invent new things. Amazing things. Enlighten me Flo mo's what are these great things this amazing boxing genius Floyd Mayweather invented? I fail to see such innovations. Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see.

Spot on. Your last point is the reason I think Floyd is vastly overrated ability wise. Floyd didn't have the slippery defensive moves to compete on the inside. Unlike Roberto Duran who's defensive skills are vastly superior to Floyds. ^^^^^^^^^^

Well, he did show us that if you control distance like a little pest on a playground you can create the illusion of being one of the so called best of all time. That's pretty impressive actually. Whenever the guy planted his feet or tried to fight in transition with a reasonable amount of risk involved he would get tagged like any other fighter. Spot on.

And you hating on him on internet thread is going to change that? The mans done more in 1 day in boxing than you could do in a lifetime. I know your bum who would get crushed in the ring but if you truly love boxing you can get involved in many other ways check out your local boxing gyms and athletic commissions punk I'm not getting punched in the face for no cunt. Learned that trick off Floyd.

The reason Mayweather makes 9 figures is because morons like like you buy his PPV's. And you hating on him on internet thread is going to change that?

I fail to see such innovations. floyd did invent something.... no, that's not really right.... floyd did invent himself! that's how he became the money man.... he made boxing his business...and he was/is very good at that.... in vegas....he is king!

As long as you and other posters keep making useless mayweather thread he will be a boxing genius....people like you are The reason Mayweather makes 9 figures for his boring fights, with so much going on in boxing why talk about mayweather?

I haven't been posting on here in a long time....and with them both gone there as just as many Floyd/Manny posts as there where when they were active.... guys boxing still has people fighting you know... that said Floyd was a genius at adapting his style in the ring... I don't know anyone saying he invented styles that made him a genius...

I agree with you that it is hard to hold his competition up to great fighters of the past, but Floyd was something different then we have ever seen before and as a fan of the sport you have to appreciate that.

Au contraire, I think Mayweather is the first fighter in history to get so many people to dedicate their lives to hating his image. At the end of the day, he ran through his haters' champions, one by one, and he made it look easy. 49 and 0; 100s of millions in the bank; All Time Great.

It's not my fault your memory or your boxing knowledge is limited. Google it or gtfo. Yea more like you are making **** up. Never seen that interview and I've never ever heard Floyd say he invented any of his moves.

Who said anything about handspeed? We were talking about the jab to the body and him utilizing it better and more consistently than almost everyone in the history of the game, find me a video that proves otherwise and then we can debate. Your quote exactly: "Quicker hands and better outcomes. YDKSAB!" Implying that me stating Ali, Leonard and Robinson using a quicker jab to the body with better outcomes was not as good as Mayweather's version. I don't need to find you any videos. If you haven't seen the entirety of Leonard's career already, with almost every fight on tape, the speed of his combinations, movements from head to body and back to head again, including multiple jabs to the body, then you shouldn't even be a boxing fan. Period. Now stop embarrassing yourself, you're about to dig yourself a deep hole from which you can not come back. End it here.

Are you in all honestly telling me Floyd has quicker hands than Ali, Leonard AND Robinson? Heck, I didn't even bother mentioning Pep (whose body jab wasn't as powerful as Floyds but was far quicker). Jeez, if this is the level we're stooping too, this place is getting out of hand as a "boxing" forum. Who said anything about handspeed?

Who said he invented anything??? the man just mastered great technique I'm with Larry on this one

Quicker hands and better outcomes. YDKSAB! Have a good one. Are you in all honestly telling me Floyd has quicker hands than Ali, Leonard AND Robinson?
