    Has mayweather ever fought legitimate competition while having a reach DISADVANTAGE?

    wondering...that would be an interesting fight to rewatch/see. I think, not sure, but I think Baldomir may have had one, but he is so unbelievable slow that I wouldnt consider him legit competition.

              Genaro and Floyd...same reach

              Diego Corrales...shorter reach than floyd

              Oscar... shorter reach

              Philip Ndou...1 inch longer reach

              Floyd has only fought one person with greater reach than him in 38 fights at 5 weight divisions, either because he is a freak of nature with super long arms or because he picks his opponents based on that fact among others.

              If he never fights Paul williams(10-inch reach advantage) you can be sure why. Sounds like a good enough reason for anyone to not fight that animal

                  this is the funniest post ever.

                  so Mayweather have to cut his arms shorter so his oppenet have some reach advantage.

                  that is what I call blind hate

                    Im just wondering about something people never talk about and a big reason as to why pbf is so good... his reach. where's the hate in that?\

                    Edit: As if I have to apologize to you, you "uz a hata" screaming piece of ****.
