      They are always positive and patriotic for their country.

      So how come Mayweather has such a small (compared to manny) following in the US?

      I dont understand that America is such a proud patriotic nation, yet they turn their back on what i believe is the best pound4pound boxer of all time.

      He came to London in the summer and he seemed so shocked by the good reception he got here.

      I just think Flloyd needws more respect in America

      but saying that i dont respect how he dodged quite a few boxerws , when he could of taken them out if only he took the risk!
      Being Patriotic has nothing to do with a worldwide sport dude,how can a boxing fan from America truly enjoy the sport if the only fighters they support are American??That would just make them shallow & not really a boxing fan now wouldn't it??i am a boxing fan,but I really enjoy rooting for underdog fighters,what does that mean about me??

        and floyd sr. didn't train jr. for most of his fights at 130.

        floyd sr. was in jail.

        he probably trained floyd for like 10 of his fights.
        floyd sr. trained his son for his most important fights at 130. regardless of how long mayweather sr. actually trained his son, the point is that floyd was a more offensive minded fighter under the guidance of roger mayweather sr.

          floyd gatti was exciting,
          floyd hatton was exciting,
          floyd corrales was exciting,
          floyd judah was exciting,

          i think the problem is now days, he just does enough to win, never goes for the knockout. he plays it safe.
          never dominates the way he can.

          yes most of us tune in to see him knocked out.

                yes most of us tune in to see him knocked out.

                didn't floyd just score a knockout in his second to last fight?

                was he supposed to knockout jmm when manny pac couldn't even do it?

                was he supposed to ko oscar de la hoya?

                i don't get it. he stops the fighters that he should stop (gatti, sharmba, ndou). he stops the fighters he wasn't expected to stop (hatton, corrales, manfredy) and he dominates the fighters he can't ko.

                  that i'll agree with.

                  while i'm 100% a fan of his skills. his personality is what's off putting, imo.

                    Floyd is SMART...why would he trade with biger fighters.....why would he fight at 154 Pounder..the same he would fight a 130 Pounder??

                    Makes NO SENSE.....

                    You are childish....

                    Floyd brings in MILLIONS for a reason...People like watching him fight.
                    You also come off as very childish.

                      no he didn't.

                      the most important fights sr. trained jr. in was genaro and manfredy.

                      chernandez , corrales , jchavez , burton were all roger.

                      roger trained him from pro debut 'til floyd sr. got out of prison.

                      floyd sr. only trained jr. for like 2 years.
