    Some ripe cherries right there
    Don't leave out that he progressed to beating Thurman and is taking on Spence, while Floyd digressed to fighting Japanese kickboxers and Youtube novices.

        It’s just you.

        Example: Everything everyone said before they started making excuses for Mayweather when he disappointed.

Honestly Paul should have been able to hurt Floyd and keep him in trouble wth such large size, weight, and reach advantages. Add in the youth vs age factor and it becomes a mystery why Paul was not able to do significantly more ...

        So credit to Mayweather that he pretty much carried the fight ... even with all those disadvantages. Pretty impressive punching a cruiserweight around and forcing him to clinch for much of the fight.

        Hopefully this will be the final exhibition by Floyd against big, young guys who should be able to take his head off. As per Logan Paul, if he were in with a current boxer anywhere near his size I think he would be in great trouble. He should have been able to hurt Floyd and trouble him. It's very troubling that he mostly could not.

          He didn’t fight a 190-poind professional boxer.

          He fought some kid off the street.

          The only time Floyd has been able to KD or KO a fighter at 147 or above is only when he fights an opponent similar in size to him. If the welters are coming in at 158-164lbs, Floyd won’t stand a chance of KD’ing them. 190lbs? Come on Arum, you underestimate Floyd one day and then overestimate his capabilities another day. As long as the shoe fits. In this case Arum would like to go with the narrative that the fight was fixed. What better way to back your opinion by overestimating what Floyd is capable of?

            We’re complimenting Mayweather for being able to push a random kid off the streets around a bit in a boxing ring.

            My how low our standards are.

              If you can knock out Ricky Hatton, you can knock out a 200 pound random person.

                Floyd Mayweather is a professional boxer and Logan Paul isn’t even a professional athlete.

                    He's always retired or on vacation when there's some dudes who can really fight are on the horizon.

                      Mayweather has knocked out 27 professional boxers.

                      Logan Paul is a rando.

He was never a KO artist against guys his size as you said, but he mastered the game of not getting hit and landing scoring shots efficiently. Before the exhibition I said there is no way he hurts a 200 pound in shape man and it will be a decision...unless Logan totally gassed in the late rounds and couldn't defend himself and ref stopped it. I was mildly interested to see if the size difference presented any problems to Floyd at 44 and retired for years. It didn't. He has slipped some with age and ring rust as expected, but performed just fine.
