Thats funny!
Mosley had just destroyed the “most feared bum” called Margarito.
Cotto was cheated by Margarito (loaded gloves) and PAC (Catchweight drained).
Hoya chose weight, ring size, glove size, judges, rehydration clause, referee and purse split.

But to show you how you don’t know shït about boxing, when do you think Floyd should have fought Mosley or Oscar?
Oscar & Mosley were full blown WW in 2002. Floyd didn’t move up to 140 until 2005. So when should he have fought them?

Lastly, why did PAC duck Floyd from 2004-2008?

Styles makes fights. Marg is pressure fighter, Mosley Puncher. May is a boxer but Mosley was a shadow of his former boxing self, Mosley best days as a boxer were years and years behind him.

May should have went straight after Margarito after he destroyed Cotto, to make a point of who is the best. Or instead face Lara/GGG/ Williams, who were all available opponents during 2009-2015 (except for Williams who had an unfortunate accident).

These are the type of fights that make a fighter great. That's why Usyk is above Mayweather. He has a Gold Medal, Unified Cruiser, Moved up and beat the #2 guy and is about the unify with the #1 in the OPEN WEIGHT category called Heavyweight Boxing.

Lol he made JJM jump 2 divisions up for his first welterweight fight and he himself went above 147.. how is this impressive? Also *****s love using this fight to say Froid indirectly KOed pacquiao by beating JMM.. yall trippin balls

And lets not forget tzsyu he ducked like a plague, pussied out against williams after he called on all his BS..
and the fact that Froid only started fighting the common guys he fought with pacquiao when pacquiao was looming in behind him, when he was demolishing everyone while climbing up..
imagine how embarassing for froid if pac wasnt a flyweight and fought those guys sooner than him..

Marquez knocked Pacquiao out at welterweight.

Did anyone dominate JMM like Floyd did? The answer is no.

You forget to put the asterixs.

Shot Cotto/Mosley/Pac/Hoya.

Where is P Williams/Lara/GGG/Margarito ?

The path to greatness was there... That's why May can never be higher than Usyk on the ATG list.

No one ever dominated Juan Manuel Marquez like he did.

That's a testament to his level of skill.

Williams and Lara would have looked good on his resume. GGG fight was unrealistic.

[Haka]

TBE.. It’s going to be hard to duplicate a resume like this.

Mosley(old)** , Pacquiao**(old and alreadyy bodybagged), De La Hoya (**old and a stinkfest), Alvarez (** catchweight), Corrales, Hatton, Judah, Cotto (shopworn, worn out), Hernandez, Gatti ,
10-0

I think Mayweather is great. That said, he wasn’t my favorite to watch. I’ll ask this to people who say he isn’t that great. If you compare his entire professional career to anyone. Count all the rounds he lost and compare it to ANYONE, then tell me your results.

[sege64]

Man, this punk didn't even do as good as Khan at the Olympics. Not wonder he ducked Khan his whole career.
Having said that, he was pretty good. He triumphed in his greatest performance against the most feared combat martial artist in sports with his great triumph over Connor McGregor, although is it lucky the fight took place in a boxing ring and not McGregor's favoured turf of the local pub cos it woulda been different then *****.
Also people criticize Mayweather's powder puff *****-ass punching power, but his KO percentage increases favourably if you include his ex gf's and partners.
GOAT.
