    What happened to you Floyd Mayweather?

    Floyd Mayweather's protected zero is what is hurting him. He is obbsessed with being undefeated and it has gotten to the point where it is tarnishing his legacy. Manny Pacquiao fights everyone and has losses, draws, and questionable wins and he's surpassed Mayweather by a great deal as far as ATG status. Floyd wasn't always like this. At one point Floyd was willing to fight anyone. At one point it was Floyd calling out Shane Mosley. I don't know how many of you saw the fight with Castillo but Mayweather barely escaped with a win....so what does he do? He gave Castillo a rematch right away and dominated him. The Floyd Mayweather of today would never do that. Today's Floyd Mayweather would have been happy with a questionable victory and justified it. Back then Mayweather was fearless and it showed in the ring as well. He used to be alot more active and not "boring" like many claim he is. The truth is Floyd Mayweather hasn't been the same since he left Top Rank. If his goal was to come into the sport and make as much money possible then his career was a success. However if he wants to be remembered in the pages of boxing history with the likes of SRL and SRR (who he's so often compared to), then he has failed. It's not too late. If he fights and wins (it's too late to lose now) against the best (Pacquiao, Shane, ect..) he can still claim his spot in history. I just don't think he will. It's a damn shame because I honestly believe he is the most talented fighter boxing has had in a very long time. What happened to you Floyd?

    floyd used to want to win in the ring, now he only wants to win in public opinion and on message boards.

          Mayweather has put himself in a bad position by blabbering on about true greats having losses, such as Ali, SRR, Leonard. Floyd says he's better than them... because he is undefeated.

          The best thing that can happen to any fighter is a loss or two early in their career. Get it over with, learn from it, bounce back and become greater. Pacquiao has done this. Can Floyd?

          Once his 0 is gone, he looks far less spectacular. He better hope and pray he doesn't lose.

            FLOYD

            JMM: Tune up with a 36 year-old lightweight (at best), approx. 3 weight divisions out of his depth. Agreed to catchweight of 144 before being cheated on the scales.

            Hatton: Never looked good against anyone at 147. Collazo had him out on his feet before Floyd went 10 rounds with him and KO'd him.

            Oscar: Was always overrated. Some say Oscar won that fight. Official result: SD

            Baldomir: 9 losses, limited skills, slower than treacle running up hill on a cold day.

            Judah: Nukka please. Mental midget who falls to pieces after four rounds. Lost to Baldomir.

              Floyd Mayweather has had no questionable wins of recent the last one was vs Castillo and that was it for the whole of his career really. The best says it all. In my book he's the best and one of the best of all time. You guys hate all you want you don't make anyone else's opinion.

                  Hatton was undefeated @140 lbs when he fought Pacquiao

                  Hatton went up one division when he fought Mayweather @ 147. New territory/division for Hatton.
