    Fraud Mayweather

    Its Unfortunate that a boxer with so much natural talent is such a woos. I wish Floyd fights as hard as he talks and trains, if he did, he would have a much higher KO percentage on his record. Yeah, I acknowelge the fact that he has fought in many weight divisions, but he is not the first to do so, there are many many fighters who have accomplished the same thing.

      Football - Terrell Owens this man is ****ing awesome yet so many haters are on his ****!

      Basketball - Kobe Bryant/ Lebron James - In kobe's case he looses endorsements and popularity because a dumb ***** decides to accuse him of ****. Big deal with the media, yet Ben Roethlisberger gets accuse of the same **** and I DONT HEAR the media going crazy about it. in Lebron's case he gets accuse of being a crybaby because he didn't say good game to the opposite team LOl what a joke.

      Baseball - Alex Rodriguez - He is been proven to be the most talented current active baseball player yet people and the media are always looking for ****** comments to degrade him..

      Boxing - Floyd Mayweather Jr - Aside from being undefeated and VERY talented people forget he didn't start boxing as a W.W. for those who don't know on 1996 Mayweather started at Super Featherweight, in 2002 moved up to Lightweight, in 2004 moved up to Junior Welterweight, on 2005 moved up to Welterweight and on 2007 moved up to Super welterweight to fight Oscar De La Hoya..


      In conclusion I beleive every one is entitled to your own opinion but darn Give credit where is due and quit.. BEING A HATER
      Owens is crazy overrated. He's not even the best WR in the post-Rice era and kills the morale of every team he's been with. Lebron and Kobe get alot of respect and praise from almost every basketball fan not sure where you're going with that one. A-Rod was paid $250 million the largest sports contract ever and he's yet to win a championship so he's criticized for being an underachiever in the playoffs. And Froid well he still has questions about his legacy and "medicine".

          One of my biggest complaints with Floyd is pre-fight he talks about storming in like a bradley tank promising to stand toe-to-toe and put his opponent to sleep. Then he gets in the ring..............zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

                  OK, among current active athletes Terrell Owens is not a top 5 receiver. Combine that with the way he divides teams and he won't avoid hate because he brings it on himself.

                  Among current boxers there is an obvious case for Floyd being the best, but we wish he would fight the best so we would know.

                      Kobe is the best player in the NBA
                      That's ur opinion,which is kool,but I'm still gonna ride with Mosley because with their most common opponent,Mosley won,Tito got a gift!!
