At what point will Floyd Mayweather get the credit he deserves?

[TheMyspaceDayz]

Floyd reminds me a lot of Ray Leonard.

lol

Leonard challenged and defeated every dangerous challenger out there while they were in their prime. Did it in exciting fashion as well. Can’t say anything close to the same for Floyd.

Leonard > Mayweather

He is the greatest fighter of this era, usually true greatness doesn’t get the respect it deserves until it’s over.

Floyd is retired now, seems happier than ever (which is great to see) yet he still gets hate from all angles. True fight fans do appreciate him but like most all time greats it can be decades before they truly get the respect they deserve.

For me, Floyd is the greatest of my era (I am early 30’s,) he is a wizard in the ring and it really annoys me when people disrespect him. He has done so much for the sport

When do you think he will get the credit he deserves?

Man his own DAUGHTER doesn't respect him and her even dumber BF.

Old Floyd would of had their respect.

[GrandpaBernard]

Floyd is already credited by the millions and millions of fighters worldwide

Visit some boxing gyms. Floyd is every amateur’s hero lol

Floyd is a boxer’s boxer

I’d be happy to be disliked by the clueless

Hes already recognized as one of the best. If your looking for EVERYONE to agree he is the GOAT. You got a better chance of getting him nominated for president.

He already has...

Mayweather deserves as much credit, relatively, as Rocky Marciano receives. No more than that. He's certainly not TBE. He will never be considered as such by those whose opinions matter.

I disagree. He’s above Marciano but I think Marciano is under appreciated. May weathers resume is just insane. No one could lay a hand on him. A boxing genius

LOL, you weren’t around for Leonard’s career were you?

LOL, you weren’t around for Leonard’s career were you?

The difference is I ain’t a know-nothing casual who dry humps the 0 on someone’s record. I’ve read the books, watched the tapes, did everything in my power to rank all the greats accordingly.

Leonard > Mayweather lol

Pretty Gay Floyd

He's different than Marciano and is one of the best defensive boxers to ever do it. But that's all you can say, if we're being truthful. Marciano beat Joe Louise. Marciano beat Jersey Joe. He beat some A+ opponents. He retired kind of like Ward did.

But Marciano man. That guy was once a century phenomenon. They don't make people like that anymore. Like my grandfather. Someone slammed the trunk of a car onto his hand at a shop. He didn't even flinch. Didn't make a sound. Just said, "Hey, open it up; it's on my hand." (Mangled hand). You'd think someone just brushed up against him the way he acted. People back then were so much tougher than they are now.

I think Marciano was a better fighter than Floyd, to be honest. In a different way, in a more pure way. I also like him because he never should have been able to do what he did. Too small, with T-Rex arms. Should have never happened for him. But he willed it to happen. That's a fighter
