Its called the Hater Card. They play them like those Get Out of Jail Free Cards in Monopoly. Except they have way more than 2.

Floyd Fans are trying to say that the reason they bash Mayweather is simply because they hate him. Not becauses he's ducked fighters, not because he's picked opponents, not because he retire-when the W.W. division was loaded.etc.. But because they hate him. And I understand this is used in both sides, not only do Floyd fans use it as a way to defend their icon, but others use it to defend their own hero, idol, whatever you want to call him.

Some trully believes its all about hate, but some know theres truth to why fans dislike Floyd or other boxers, but rather just sum it up thats its all cause they hate him. Then in both sides (anti Floyd/Floyd Mafia) you can find reasons to argue why he's great and others to believe why maybe he's not all that. Its an on continuing saga that may last forever and no one can stop it, but what can people do is stop hating on other posters cause of it. Trying to reason, but not insult each other. Sometimes some fans maybe offended by some things, but you have to understand that this will never change, theres always fans that come and go and you wont go anywhere on just fighting things off.

But I really feel Floyd has earn all the lack of respect he gets. I genuinely believe he isn't a bad guy and he's talented. What I dont believe is that he's invincible or so is any boxer in the history of boxing. So anything i've said I havn't post it cause of hate, but becasue I believe it and I want to make some of you understand and yes because I want to give some a dose of their own medicine. But I wouldn't want any of Floyd family members to feel bad about it. This is the sport of boxing and you have to learn to be gracious in defeat as you are in victory. If you dont feel bad for nice guys losing you shouldn't feel bad if your hero loses too.

I will give credit to Floyd if he beats a healthy Cotto & another Welter weight like Berto. He has some credit now, but not one that I would put as an all time great.Although his abilities are an ATG. If he beats Mosley I have to see if Mosley came swinging if he barely pulls the trigger I will see him like an old boxer. Pacquiao Is too small He's proving more than anyone imagine of him. I'm sure no one ever thought that he would be capable to even be consider to be in a fight with Mayweather, Cotto,etc. Whatever he does now is a plus and shouldn't be looked at as any less if he loses to bigger fighters.

You can hate me now and forgive me later. Its all in fun.

Would you discredit Miguel if he went to 168 and fought contenders?

Do you give Hopkins credit? Or should he go into HW and beat the Klits? What about Cotto? He picked his fights and he waited for the title to become vacant to scramble for it.

C'mon man. Your hating if you cant recognize anything he has accomplished. People who downplay everything Floyd has done, your doing nothin but hating. You saying he has to fight Cotto or Berto who are naturally bigger than him. Not in height but in weight. Cotto's weight is in the 160-170s come fight night. Mayweather is a solid 147-48. Yet he has to fight those guys to prove himself?

C'mon man. You wouldn't be a hater if you would just recognize what he has done, instead of discrediting everything because he didn't fight 3 guys... yet.

Its all about fighting the best at their best. If Cottos leaves the division while there still better opponents than he would turn himself into a *****. I wouldn't give him credit to fighting an old winky wright unless he cleaned the division and there no one left. I'll give him credit for taking the best fight possible, but not for fighting an old fighter past his prime.

I prefer that version...

I only say that because he brags he can beat them and he's in that division. He's not fighting at 140 is he? Its not my fault its Mayweathers.

Basically....

I hate Mayweather because he wont lose and didn't fight Cotto, Berto, Williams, or Mosley.
