    Mayweather and the olympics, from Wikipiedia

    At the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta, Mayweather won a bronze medal by reaching the finals of the featherweight (57 kg)[8] division's 31-boxer tournament. In the opening round, Mayweather led 10-1 on points over Bakhtiyar Tileganov of Kazakhstan before he won by round 2 referee stoppage. In the second round, Mayweather outpointed Artur Gevorgyan of Armenia 16-3. In the quarterfinals, Mayweather survived a late rally by Lorenzo Aragon of Cuba to win 47-11. In his semifinal bout against the eventual silver medalist, Serafim Todorov of Bulgaria, Mayweather lost by a controversial decision that the U.S. team officially protested. Many who saw the bout, including the referee, believed that Mayweather had won.[9]
    like the many who saw mayweather-castillo and thought castillo won?

                  What are you guys talking about.

                  Floyd Mayweather has a great amateur background.

                    If mayweather is so overrated then why is he undefeated and who can defeat him?
