    There are highly skilled boxers out there that aren't as boring as Floyd, they definitely get the accolades: Marquez is prime example.

      Marquez? Which one? The one that has been bothering Pacquiao doesn't get much respect at all.

        If a fighter can manage to be "boring" in the ring, what does that say about the guy he is fighting. If he can get a clear UD, you really should be complaining about his opponent not making him fight. Floyd makes some fights look non-competitive, he is that good.

          I like watching mayweather, action isn't everything..I like seeing his ring movment and footwork against bigger guys and i like seeing him adapt to speedy boxers and out jab and pot shot fighters that come straight foward. Even tho his essence is that of an ATG, I still say he's got great skill but not great will...

                They make him fight alright. Not their fault if Mayweather chooses to run and clinch more than do actual boxing.

                    Doesn't change the fact that Mayweather is boring
