FLOYD MAYWEATHER: "I'm The Greatest Fighter that Ever Lived"

[Sparked_1985]

That kind of confidence can't hurt.

Do I agree with this? course not.

Does it help Floyd? yes. Floyd puts himself on a pedastal and has to match his own expectations, he has to catch up to his mouth. When you have all that money, pressure needs to come from somewhere. Floyd puts it on himself, which is admirable really.

It's kind of like Hatton in the run up to the PBF fight, nobody doubted that Hatton thought that he was going to win, despite the talent disparity.

Self-belief and confidence is almost as important as actual talent when it comes to the highest reaches of the game.

I don't think anything a boxer says about his own achievements is a step too far. Let them live up to their own expectations.

[Fights]

Everybody is beating everybody but no one has beaten him. The greatest of all time....period

Another one.

[MANGLER]

No, just no.

[War God]

NO You're NOT!!!! FUUUCK YOU!!!!!

Dude.

[street bully]

its funny how people take everything floyd says and runs with it........thats just floyd being floyd......Ali claimed he was the greatest when he beat sonny liston..so let floyd be confident aswell.....

Name me one fighter on Floyds sorry ass resume that could carry Listons jock strap? Floyd himself isn't on Listons level let alone Ali.

What you just said is thread worthy. People simply do not understand the benefits of having a huge ego.

Bully,

Liston? Really?

[Fights]

im not defending this at all..but alot of fighters talk ****,,,its just part of floyds persona..why get worked up by it???floyd says **** like this for attention and press..kinda like kanye running on stage last night at the vma's..no press is bad press

"Kanye is a jackass"

he is, though. it's a legit argument when you think about it.

39 have tried, 39 have failed. he's undefeated - his style and technique have caused boxers to study it and try to find ways to beat it. none have been sucessful up to this day.

one of a kind. floyd mayweather.

Hes not undefeated. He lost to Castillo.
