Comments Thread For: Roy and Floyd: Playing Favorites Cheats Best of The Best

[RR_1988]

Only dumb people think floyds win over JMM is a legitimate win. To fight a guy who is two weight classes under you is pathetic. If it was Mosley who called him up everyone would be bashing him. WAIT I just got word that number 9 ranked Chad Dawson is calling out number 7 ranked Cotto. Its okay because he is ranked hire than him in the P4P list. LMAO

Lyle, your easily fooled my friend. The fact of the matter is plain and simple and requires nothing more than a few words to summerise, and not a legnthy drawn out article naming past foe's that will soon be hall of famers etc.

Here it is for you:

For years Mayweather has consistently fought elite fighters, there's no doubting that, the problem is, he has never fought the elite fighter of the time that people wanted to see him fight. Get it?

You'd have to be a fool to argue against that!

Like who????

When were people screaming and calling for a fight that didn't get made??? Seriously.....provide an example, with supporting proof and time frame.

With the exception of the Pac fight??? Which is clearly not PBF doing anyway.

rjj was 10x more charismatic than floyd. reason rjj didn't make as much money as floyd is becaues rjj didn't have a cash cow like dlh to fight at 175.

mayweather called out damn near everyone. dont put it on mayweather that its his fault when bob arums is the snake that prevented the fights may was asking for

I find it interesting that you brought this up when I never mentioned him ducking anyone. I specifically mentioned that he could be way more exciting to watch and simply hasn't been... seemingly by choice. If you're going to step in the ring with an old blown up JMM that's fine but you better knock him out. If you're gonna fight an aging De La Hoya while you're in your prime (and claiming you're the GOAT) you better knock him out.

It's one thing to take bull**** fights because (allegedly) no one wants to fight you, but you gotta blow up those guys in the process. Letting lesser guys take you the distance is never good for the legacy.

Was it pathetic when Pac fought Larios (who was coming off of a 3rd round KO loss two divisions lower)?

Also, LW champions have been trying to win at WW throughout boxing history. Duran, Mosley, Armsrong, Whitaker are only a few LW's who moved up two divisions to try win at WW. Did the people they fought get criticized? Christ, when DLH fought Pac that was okay, right? Why?

i don't remember that being on ppv and being sold as numero uno. fight wasn't even on american tv cause everyone knew it was a joke.

[Ringthebell]

What does PPV have to do with it? The guy was talking about what happens in the ring. I am not defending Floyd, just pointing out the double standard and hypocrisy that exists on NSB. Floyd gets **** on for the same things that Pac and others get a pass for. That is all.

[Gary Coleman]

Floyd can do no right in the eyes of some. Let the haters hate.

[rogdogx]

If Mayweather doesn't leapfrog Pac as P4P champwith the Mosley win i wouldn't be surprised to see him take on the bigger challenge in Paul Williams. Pacman is afraid and will avoid Mayweather AT ALL COSTS!
