Is Floyd Mayweather a coward?

[The Hammer]

Over 60% of the people have voted that Floyd is a coward.

jose luis castillo was an elite prime fighter when he fought floyd. thats pretty much it

Castillo and Corrales. But that's like eons ago when he was still at 135.

Yet he didn't fight Casa and Frei. Stylistic bad matchups for him.

Other than Castillo and COrrales there isn't any name worth mentioning in Fake Floyd's resume.

You may add Hatton but a blown up Hatton at welter isn't really much of a resume to speak of.

Of course a shot DLH is out of the question.

I've been trying to look at Floyd's retirement as objectively as possible and I've finally come to a conclusion.

I don't think its that Floyd is a coward. I know most of the people will agree that Floyd is the best p4p fighter alive (even if he is retired). I also don't think he is actually afraid of fighting anybody. Simply saying, I just don't think his motivation in life is boxing. It's money. He'd rather make millions of dollars doing endorsements and tv spots than he would training and living the hard life of a boxer. Simple as that. And in a lot of ways I can't blame him. I know a lot of fans might find this "selfish". But he doesn't owe anyone anything. Although it is a huge waste of talent, cos I really believe that he could have been a top 5 atg and cleaned out the welterweights.

A very good post. Objective too.

Not. His post is about ******ity.

Fake Floyd's words admitted he is a coward.

And his actions validate as such.

The poster just try to sound like he's objective yet he is slapped by his own flawed opinions based on bad arguments.

Sorry.

Sorry, but it is your posts that aren't objective at all. Throw in you and your other screen names as well.

I am as dissapointed in Floyd's lack of fulfillment of his potential as anyone but coward is too strong a word.
He's not even in my top 20 all time though he could have been with a different attitude in his latter years.
BUT not taking the biggest risks is far from cowardice.
Top skills, mediocre attitude.
Did what he wanted. I can't argue. I just wanted more.

Even earlier in his career, he was avoiding prime, skillful fighters. He could have fought Mosley at 135, but he preferred to remain at 130 at that time, where he had a big reach advantage over his opponents such as Corrales.

When you go back and look at his earlier resume, most of his opponents like Hernandez were well past their best.

No, he doesn't want to fight any more because he doesn't have the heart for it. He's afraid of being hurt.

Where do you get your news from?Shane is the one that avoided Floyd at 135
and Floyd as at 130 when he called him out.And Floyd has been calling Shane,Delahoya and Trinidad out ever since they were in there prime.He also wanted to unify against the Cassamayor/Freitas winner but Freitas did`nt want any part of him.
