Mayweathers great, but so what.

Oscar was a current champ. He sure did hand Floyd his ass

Oscar had one fight in 3 years lucky enough to get a belt from Mayorga ( ) and STILL he was one round away from whipping Floyd.

Ok the guy is a fantastic BOXER but I am getting tired of his mouth and disrespecting. There is a reason why people do not pay to see him fight, he is not exciting and his mouth turns many people off, the man just has no class. Its funny Pernell was a great boxer but people loved him because even as a boxer his fights were much more exciting and he was willing to fight top fighters in their prime. I think once he is done fighting people will forget about him. Sure people will remeber him as a great fighter. Very few fans will go recall mayweather with fondness like they do more exciting fighters like Leonard Pryor and many others in a huge list of fighters. People will never get teary eyed when they think about him years from now, that feeling of being blessed for having seen him fight. The thing is Mayweather is the biggest detrement to his own legacy. Its sad really and a way it sucks because he could have been so much more than he ever will be. He reminds me a lot of Larry Holmes and how he tarnished his own legacy with his attitude, its sad.

Very good post.

Very good post.

Thanks I figured someone had to put mayweather into prospective with out being combative with people about him.

The funny thing is that mayweather drives me nutts because he is so good but hes just a ****. He also bothers me because he rather just win than make a fan friendly fight which he probely win as well. He does not get hit that often when he does stay in the pocket so I don't know what he is worried about. Not everyone can fight inside like castillio

He's a boxer, he's not your boyfriend. What do you care??

Because I love the sport and I feel like he is not living up to what he could be.

He'll shut up, once someone makes him. Until then, I don't care much for what he says anyway, so it doesn't affect me.

Whitaker was hated WHILE he boxed, by the way He was an introvert who had a chip on his shoulder. Not a good combo when you're success in life is partially based on popularity.
