Actually I'm giving Floyd props for being a great boxer. But I just wonder why you guys also ain't giving money any props?
I Respect Floyd Mayweather Jr

I respect him too. A lot of his antics are childish or just plain publicity stunts.. If he is immature and ****** it's not his fault and makes him all the more impressive when he is acting professional. Every time he gets in the ring his life is on the line. People wouldnt be mad if ricardo mayorga said hes the best boxer of all time, they'd just laugh. People get mad at floyd because they want him to prove it for their entertainment. It's really easy for people to call him names and act like he deserves no respect when they have never been in the ring.. It's not so easy when you see that almost every punch baldomir threw at him could have knocked him out cold if it connected.Comment

actually i have...i once trained with Jesus 'lil poison' Pimentel...look him up...i never aspired to be an amateur or pro...jus wanted to stay in shape thru boxing...this was about 4 years ago
and yes, im quite aware about 'winning' fights is what its all about...but the only thing that disgusts me more than wasting talent away by not challenging yourself, is wasting your talent while claiming your own greatness
i'm a fight fan...have been for over 20 years...i've spent a nice fortune following this sport and if i want to vent my frustrations or poke fun, i will
Cool, glad to hear it. I'll definitely look him up. But come on, Floyd has tested his skills so many times against top opponents, I don't know what more people want? Obviously, there are 2 or 3 challenges he has to face in the future...... Mosley being one, Pacquiao being two and perhaps the third being Williams or Berto depending on how things pan out. But let's be real..... who would you put as favourite to win any of those fights at welter?
Anyway, you are entitled to take the p*ss or whatever as much as you want. But Floyd, to me, is the best exponent of the art of boxing, so when people **** on him it's like they are ****ting on the sport of boxing.Comment
