    What is Mayweather's best performance?

    I have been rewatching PBF v Judah, Oscar, JMM and Hatton. It may be a fight aside from those, but what do you think is PBF's best performance?

    Of the lot, I think the Oscar performance was awesome, against a bigger guy with years at the higher weight, still good etc.

        Corrales. The Gatti fight was another one, but Corrales was supposed to be a huge problem for Floyd and he made him look 2nd rate. Gatti at that point was a punching bag (RIP).

          The Gatti fight was definitely his best performance, and the Corrales fight was his best display of skill. Physically Corrales had everything he needed to win, but it wasn't anywhere near enough.

          I also can't help but watch the Manfredy fight over and over again. I've never seen Floyd throw punches the way he did when he cornered him...

                    I can't believe u said Oscar-Floyd! That was a terrible fight and one of the few moments where it looked like the moment overwhelmed Floyd. He didn't really get into a rhythm till late in the fight and just didn't look sharp. Even when he stepped up the attack Oscar bloxked a good deal of his punches. Floyd would probably say the same that he wasn't on top of his game that night.

                    His best performance offensively was probably against Gatti, he just had everything working and was extrememly offensive from the get go. He usually doesn't turn it on until he sees a guy hurt but in the Gatti fight he was on a mission from the opening bell. I believe it was his first PPV and he wanted to put on a show which he absolutely did.

                    I think the Ndou fight might be a close second because Ndou was a liver dog in there and more offensive. Gatti as most said was literally a punching bag thay night. People don't realize Ndou had 30 KOs of his 31 wins at that point if memory serves me correctly. Watch how Floyd brilliantly countered Ndou's lazy jab all fight long and then ended it with 3 brilliant straight rights. Another nugget for ya: Ndou retired 1 fight later with like brain damage or something.
