Floyd could do the same thing, he can still box the way he does and do it for another 10yrs and still be undefeated with people still hating on him. He is in a sport where people die and people get mad because he trying not to get killed, you got remember boxers die in the ring and he take the same chance as every other boxer when they step in the ring.
    The haters don't care. They want their money to be worth, and by that they want to see someone get knock the F out. They don't care about that other fighter's health, but as long they get to see him KO, that's what matters the most. They can hate all they want, but Floyd is one of most complete boxers of all time.

      He is the smartest fighter today but some of the stuff he says is dumb. Like fighters forgetting how to count. I never read anywhere that a fighter has forgotten how to count. I also think that there's many fighters out there who have been on wars in the ring and are doing great, look at Foreman for example. He's doing grea with his health and everything.

        Anyone knocking floyd here about what hes saying is an idiot straight up and down


        You get one body... Going through the meat grinder for fans doesnt make you tough it makes you weak. Floyd fights for him and his family first and fights to not get hurt .Thats called self respect

            Boxers who talk **** like toe to toe and act like Mayorga are plain dumb and selfish.....why get hit if u can avoid it??? Or in the case of Mayorga why let yourself get hit on purpose......you go toe to toe if u can't win without getting hit....it's that simple......if you can win a fight and take limited damage as a boxer it is your responsibility to do that for the sake of your family........Floyd is right 100%....how many great boxers are now broke and punch drunk???

                    Mr. MAYWEATHER: You know, a lot of Hispanic fighters like to, you know, they say oh, we doing it for the fans. We want to **** heads. We want to box toe-to-toe. But then, when its all said and done, you can't go to your fans and get nothing - no money, no help, or no nothing. So the thing is about being smart, being intelligent. And that's the type of fighter I am. I'm a very, very intelligent fighter.

                    I agree especially with this part....

                    I just want to throw out there u know i've always said to myself if Marquez had Mayweathers defence or close he'd easily be an ATG....

                      He lasted so long? Simple answer, He cherry picks his opponents. That's the perfect answer.
