    That fan just keeps owning himself against me that I took pity.

    A lot fo PBF fans are blinded by his moves. But that truth is, PBF is a fake. The good thing is that more and more critics are seeing this and have began to recognize who the true p4p king is.

      Mayweather vs Baldomir did twice better in ticket sales than Barrera vs Marquez (Both of them are big names) now you figure it out, surely it was'nt baldomir who was selling in that fight... (Over 400K buys)

        Who is it? Pacquiao? LOL

        I'm a pac fan and I always root for him but some other pac fans are clearly delusional, some of you hate on PBF just because of the P4P Status thing.

          Just a question for the US fans really,you have two highly skilled fighters here who both are/were untouchable in their primes.It seems like Mayweather gets alot of hate for his defensive points building style,i remember Whitaker winning most of his fights in the same sort of manor,he never got in war's and just stuck to what he did best(as he should do).I get the impression that Whitaker gets great credit for his style and accomplishments and yet Mayweather gets hate.Two top class fighters who in my opinion will walk into the hall of fame with no problem but why the hate for one and not the other?
          Simple, Hindsight is always 20/20. History will be the judge of PBF.

            I think 10 years from now Mayweather will be remembered as one of the great boxers.

              You are delusional dude. Not me.

              PAC has MAB and Morales.

              What does your fake has?

              Use your brain dude. You got a coward and a duck for a p4p.

                Wow I didn't know guys like Diego Corrales, Arturo Gatti, Zab Judah, Sharmba Mitchell, Carlos Hernandez, Jesus Chavez, Demarcus Corley, Jose Luis Castillo, etc... were easy opposition. Who the hell has Mayweather ducked? Hatton or Margarito? LMAO. He's obviously fighting De La Hoya and there really isn't anybody besides Floyd and Mosley that can beat Oscar in the lower weight classes. So that statement is obviously bull**** that he ducks people. There really is no proof to back it up. Bitches talk **** is all it comes down to. Mayweather has backed it up every time he's had to.

                I wish Mayweather could have fought Mosley at 135 a long time ago or Tszyu. I wish hatton wasn't a ***** and would have fought Mayweather at 140 when he should have. Those are the only other fighters that he really could have fought that were around his weight that were good. He's obviously showing his balls by moving up to 154 and fighting the best figher. Maybe after he wipes the floor with De La Hoya, fights Mosley, and goes undefeated throughout his career you people will truely acknowledge him as the best fighter of his time.

                  With the exception of Castillo who beat him clearly. yeah they were pretty safe oppposition.

                  And no. PBF has talked **** and ran like a coward from Marg. He ran like a chicken from a vastly inferior Baldo and he got booed by his OWN fans for it.

                    I think most people who hate PBF are basically racist... I mean I hear some people referring to him as a thug or thug wannabe. Because he's black and talks **** doesn't make him a thug. Because he's young, black, talks ****, and has money does not make him a thug. He actually works for his money. He's an intelligent young black male. He talks **** to sell his fights. What's so wrong with that. I think that most people that hate him don't know anything about society today or the hip hop culture. They're scared of black people and "******s" as they would call a white person with a black persona. Nobody has a problem with Fernando Vargas for talking **** on De La Hoya and you don't hear anyone bitching about a white fighter talking **** on his opponent. It's only the black fighter with skills that are so good that it scares you. He's the type of black guy that makes more money than you, can have any female he wants basically, and he can beat the **** out of you too. It's one thing to be jealous of someone that's better than you in almost anyway... it's another when he's a different color and it makes you bash him for it.

                      Floyd is the best boxer around, taking competition and performances together.

                      But I don't find him very entertaining inside the ring and outside the ring he's atrocious. His **** talking is piss poor IMO, and I hope it is to sell fights cos otherwise he really is a little c*nt.

                      And to the guy shouting racism. Thats not called for, hang around these forums long enough and you'll see plenty of racism, but this topic is nothing of the sort. Floyd has acted like a thug in interviews, nothing to do with being black.
